Rest Day

*No Class today. I will be attending the CrossFit Running Endurance certification.

Main site and CF CFT Rest Day. Take the day off, catch up on a missed wod, or practice a Skill, i.e. Balance.

The group takes a break during last Saturdays wod of 7,000 pounds for men and 5,000 pounds for women, overhead anyhow.

Since today is a Rest Day, it would be a good time to treat yourself to a little self massage. Before you jump up and run off from the computer to do whatever it is you were gonna do, you should remove your mind from the gutter and read on. We don't always have the time or money to get a professional massage even though we are in desperate need on one. Doing CrossFit can cause muscle soreness, especially if you just started training in this sport. There is a proactive approach you can take to assist your muscle recovery besides popping Ibuprofen. Foam rollers are a great tool to help rub out the stiffness and soreness from your muscles. If used properly you can substantially alleviate muscle discomfort and you get to work on your balance skills. Here is a little article about how to use a foam roller from our friends at CrossFit Invictus. Enjoy.
