Why CrossFitters Need Yoga

December 30, 2017

All CrossFit athletes want to perform their best at what they love while minimizing the risk of injury and overuse. Let’s face it: Injuries and chronic muscle or joint pain suck. Do you find yourself constantly struggling with:

  • discomfort from overly sore/tight muscles
  • movement restrictions
  • lack of joint mobility in key load bearing joints

You’ll be given cues to correct your biomechanics and opportunities to create muscular strength, endurance and flexibility in desirable ranges of motion. This will translate into WOD success naturally as time progresses.
