HI Any of you have any comments about what injuries are most common in CF? How to prevent them? Deal with them? Or just moan about your injury?

more on PROTEIN. How much is enough for a crossfitter?
First: A digression: Maybe I am missing something but the "reports" on MFP website are stupid compared to the awesome and useful charts, pies, and tables per day, week, or month you get on the MFP android app. Go figure. Anyway, from MFP app (not the website), I see that I get on average 55 grams of protein per day, for…

Embarrassing CF moments?!
I have this embarrassing problem, but I can laugh about it. I seriously have workouts so hard sometimes that I realized afterwards I peed on myself. This happens with box jumps and jump ropes. No surprise with all the slamming going on that my bladder can't keep it together. With all the sweating going on, no one notices.…

Interesting, since I started crossfit 3 months ago, I've gained 3 pounds and I'm definitely slimming down a little, and getting a lot toner, especially my legs. I look forward to some tighter abs, but I'll be happy anyway. Anyone notice the same thing?

For you HR monitors out there, how many????
For those of you who have used HR monitors during workouts, how many calories do you tend to burn in a typical CF workout? Don't worry about being exact, I just want a feel for the range....
