Getting Back to CrossFit Training After Being Sick

by crossfitmomm, posted in CrossFit

So, right after the Turkey Challenge CrossFit competition, I got sick. I missed Thanksgiving and was in bed most of the weekend. I also missed 4 days of CrossFit Training, which is right before another major CrossFit competition I have coming up, the 2022 Legends Championship at CrossFit Mayhem in Cookeville, Tennessee.

Now, I have to get back to CrossFit Training, and I’m hoping I’ve learned some things.

Tips for CrossFit Training After Being Sick

  • Don’t push getting back to the gym. The gym and the training will be there.
  • Drink plenty of fluids.
  • Sleep more.
  • Try to keep eating. You don’t want to lose too much weight.
  • Maintain a positive mental attitude.
  • Stay busy; it’ll take your mind off the fact you’ve missed CrossFit training

CrossFit Competition: MBS Turkey Challenge Day 1

by crossfitmomm, posted in CrossFit Competitions

This past weekend was the MBS Turkey Challenge. It was held in Superior, Colorado at Sport Stable.

Admittedly, I am not 100%, so I had no expectations of this CrossFit competition. I am still struggling with knee and tendon issues and a rib head in my back.

So, I was about 80%.

Luckily, this CrossFit competition had no movements that typically bother me, so that was a blessing.

Frustrations With CrossFit Injuries

by crossfitmomm, posted in CrossFit

Hey all!

I have been completely frustrated with CrossFit injuries lately.

If you read my latest CrossFit competition post and watched my latest video on it, you would have seen how I strained my tendon. I had to do many sessions of muscle activation and massage, and it still is tight and weak.

Then, the following week, I had a rib head pop out, which is basically a rib out of place. Enter multiple chiropractic appointments and grunting through the pain during training.

My massages and chiropractor appointments hurt. None of them feel good. In essence, I’m paying for pain.

Which is what you do with CrossFit, too.

I’m really frustrated with my CrossFit injuries, and doubt and quitting creep in quite frequently.

I’d like to say I have the answers, but I don’t. I don’t even have any words of wisdom.

I’m giving my new CrossFit Games training till the CrossFit Open 2023. If I don’t make the quarterfinals, I may give up this dream altogether.

At some point, all of this becomes not worth it.

I’m not there yet, but I do feel it’s getting closer.

I knew this journey would not be easy; but I never thought it would be because of injuries. I thought it would be because of the work.

CrossFit Competition: Fossil Games

by crossfitmomm, posted in CrossFit Competitions

Last weekend, I participated in the Fossil Games, a masters CrossFit Competition in Aurora, Colorado at CrossFit Bladium.

I was a fill in for another gal, so I had never met my partners before.

It was fun. We did pretty good, and the workouts were fun, too!
