In this week's episode, I want to talk a little about dry needling for the CrossFit athlete. When we talk about crossfitters, or anybody in sports or high volume exercise models, not just CrossFit, but anybody that's working out five, six times a day at a moderate high intensity, ultimately, recovery becomes a very important factor. And if you're not able to get your body back to a baseline, and you're kind of starting that next workout, already injured, sore, bita less range of motion, it just increases the chances of an injury occurring if we're not functioning at 100%. Right, whether that's Nervous System fatigue, or actual structural damage from the previous workout. In either scenario, I think we need to be very careful that we're not because of those changes, we're not working out with different movement patterns and putting stress on areas of the body that maybe it's not used to being. And I really think that's where a lot of our injuries come from. More so even than then technique or posture is more just a fatigue standpoint, right?
