Your shoulders and elbows have to last longer than the Open. đź’Ş

Open 26.2 is very upper-body heavy, which means athletes dealing with shoulder, elbow, or wrist injuries may need to modify quite a bit to keep symptoms under control.

If pulling, pressing, or hanging movements are bringing on pain, instability, or compensation, it’s a good sign your body needs a different strategy today.

A reminder: the long-term health of your shoulders, elbows, and wrists is far more important than setting a new muscle-up PR in one workout.

Short-term modifications help protect your joints so you can keep training, competing, and doing the movements you love for years to come.

If upper body pain is showing up during workouts, it’s worth addressing. Schedule a session and let’s build a plan that keeps you strong while protecting your shoulders and arms.

Strong athletes play the long game. đź’Ş

Heading into Open 26.2, athletes dealing with a lower body injury may or may not need to modify — it really depends on how your body responds to lunges.

If lunges feel strong, stable, and symptom-free, you may be able to move as written. But if you’re noticing pain, instability, or compensation patterns, it might be time to adjust the movement, range of motion, or loading.

Short-term modification doesn’t mean you’re backing off. It means you’re making a smart decision that supports better long-term outcomes.

The goal isn’t just getting through one workout — it’s staying healthy enough to keep training after the Open is over.

If a lower body injury is limiting how you move in workouts, it might be time for a better strategy. Schedule a session and let’s figure out how to keep you training while your body heals.

Strong athletes listen to their bodies. đź’Ş

Pregnancy ≠ automatic modification.
Symptoms = time to adjust.

Heading into Open 26.2, pregnant and postpartum athletes should pay attention to signs like leaking, pelvic heaviness or pressure, pain, or abdominal coning.

Modifying when symptoms show up isn’t “doing less.” It’s training smarter so your pelvic floor and core can keep up with the demands of CrossFit — now and long after the Open is over.

If you’re experiencing symptoms during workouts, it doesn’t mean you have to stop training. But it may mean your body needs a better strategy.

Pelvic floor PT can help you keep doing the sport you love — without ignoring what your body is telling you.

If symptoms are showing up during your workouts, it’s time to get support. Schedule a session and let’s build a plan that keeps you strong in and out of the gym.

Happy National Sons Day to my two wild, loud, dirt-covered, big-hearted boys. đź’™

Life with you is chaotic, hilarious, and the greatest adventure I’ve ever been on.

Lord, thank You for trusting me with these boys. May they grow into strong, kind, faith-filled men who know exactly who they are — and Whose they are.

Did you know that women were officially excluded from many clinical trials until 1993? That’s literally in my lifetime.

It was the NIH Revitalization Act of 1993 that required women to be included in NIH-funded clinical research.

In 1977, the FDA actually recommended excluding women of childbearing age from early drug trials.
Which means for decades, medications, dosing, and treatment protocols were built primarily on male physiology.

Research also shows:
• Women wait longer for pain medication in ERs
• Women’s pain is more likely to be labeled “emotional”
• Even animal studies historically favored male subjects

And we’re still untangling the ripple effects:
➡️ Missed diagnoses
➡️ Under-treated pain
➡️ Pelvic health issues brushed off as “normal”
➡️ Symptoms that don’t fit the outdated textbook mold

This is exactly why pelvic floor PT, hormone-aware care, and women-specific research matter so much now.

Your symptoms aren’t dramatic. Your pain isn’t “just part of being a woman.” You deserve care that actually considers how your body works.

We’ve come a long way... but we’re not done yet. ❤️

Have I ever told you this story? We’re about to kick off March, Women’s History Month, and a whole lot of pelvic floor ed I’m passionate about. But first, it might help to know how I got here. ❤️

What a day!

We had 4 games between a basketball game for each of the boys, Jordan's T-ball game, and Jeremiah's soccer game.

They played great in all of their games!

Jeremiah scored his first in game goal! âš˝ And honestly the best part of that was having all of his teammates and their parents cheering him on and congratulating him after the game.

I am so proud of the athletes these boys are becoming. They are hard workers. Never give up (even when they're exhausted). They cheer on their teammates. And are good sportsmen, even when things don't go their way.

The days are long. The practices are many. We're exhausted most days of the week.

We've sat in the cold 🥶 and windy. We've gotten sunburns and farmer's tans from the hot days. We've had some great wins and some hard losses.

But I wouldn't trade being a sports parent for anything. This is exactly where I want to be - cheering on my babies.

Go Pumas! 🏀
Go Wolves! 🏀
Go Stars! âšľ
Go Spartans! âš˝

CrossFit Open 26.1 isn’t super upper-body dominant 💪🏼 So for most of you, modifications here may not even be necessary.

But we still play it smart.
If you’re dealing with:
• Shoulder irritation
• Elbow tendon pain
• Wrist limitations
• coming back from a flare up

This is your reminder that “not upper body heavy” doesn’t mean “ignore symptoms.”

We can always adjust or modify the movement to make it fit where you're at right now!

You don’t get bonus points for pushing through pain.
You get longevity for training with intention.

If it feels good? Send it. 💪🏼
If it talks back? We pivot.

Strong athletes adapt.

CrossFit Open 26.1 is 👏🏼 LEG 👏🏼 HEAVY 👏🏼

If your knees have been whispering… this workout might make them shout. 📣

This is your reminder that modifying lower body volume or impact isn’t “taking the easy way out” — it’s protecting your long-term strength.

Especially if you’re:
• Working through a knee injury
• Managing meniscus type pain
• Dealing with swelling, catching, or instability
• Returning from a flare-up

This workout loads the legs early and often. That means we may need to adjust:
– Depth
– Volume
– Impact
– Or swap movements entirely

The goal isn’t to survive 26.1.
The goal is to train in a way that your knee still likes you next week.

Smart athletes modify.
Injured athletes who ignore symptoms don’t stay in the game.

Play the long game. 🦵🏼💪🏼
