The Back Pain Podcast Your CrossFit Questions Answered and Why there Will Always be Wonky Squats
In today’s episode, Dave is talking gym, CrossFit and getting back into exercise in response to questions from across the Back Pain Podcast community and socials
Dave takes a look at the role of deconstructing and building towards a particular movement and why even if you have a wonky squat its ok because everyone is different
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Full body movements are done in a group setting at high intensity
- Often cornerstone exercises are done and act as a marker for the level of fitness
- All exercises are positive if done well. It’s not the exercise that’s wrong it’s the narrative around it
- Humans are not all the same We are all different so we should act like it. We won't all conform to the same baseline
- Deconstruct the exercise into its components and work at it as long as you are building and progressing you can be ok with what you are achieving
- It's better to be fighting towards the next level even if you don't ever get there
- Human movement has a bell curve and you may be an outlier
BEST MOMENTS
‘People who do CrossFit bloody love what they do’
‘Never stop aiming for the perfect movement but be ok with it if it never comes’
‘Some people just do have a bit of a wonky squat’
