Multiple scientific studies show that CrossFit averages between <strong data-start=\"1295\" data-end=\"1338\">2 and 4 injuries per 1,000 hours of training<\/strong>. That&#8217;s in the same range as:  <\/p><ul><li data-start=\"1380\" data-end=\"1391\">Running<\/li><li data-start=\"1380\" data-end=\"1391\">Powerlifting<\/li><li data-start=\"1380\" data-end=\"1391\">Olympic weightlifting<\/li><li data-start=\"1380\" data-end=\"1391\">Team sports<\/li><\/ul><p data-start=\"1454\" data-end=\"1511\">So CrossFit is no more dangerous than other sports. What does emerge clearly from research: <\/p><ul><li>The biggest risk factor for an injury is a <strong data-start=\"1615\" data-end=\"1657\">previous injury to the same tissue<\/strong><\/li><li data-start=\"1380\" data-end=\"1391\">Inconsistent training increases risk<\/li><li>Large training spikes increase risk<\/li><\/ul><p data-start=\"1752\" data-end=\"1843\">In other words: The problem is rarely the sport. The problem is how a person trains. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b8e8601 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b8e8601\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Why quitting training is often the worst idea<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a017992 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a017992\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p data-start=\"1908\" data-end=\"1978\">Many people with back or shoulder pain stop moving completely. That sounds logical. But physiologically, it&#8217;s often not smart. Muscles, tendons and connective tissue adapt to load. When you stop completely:    <\/p><ul><li data-start=\"2137\" data-end=\"2159\">Declines in taxability<\/li><li data-start=\"2137\" data-end=\"2159\">Becomes tissue less tolerant<\/li><li data-start=\"2196\" data-end=\"2230\">Does return actually become more difficult<\/li><\/ul><p data-start=\"2232\" data-end=\"2429\">Research on tendon adaptation shows that controlled loading is essential for recovery. Tendons like consistent stimuli, not months of doing nothing and then suddenly full load. Therefore, the question is not, <strong>&#8220;Should I quit CrossFit?&#8221;<\/strong> But, <strong>&#8220;How do we adjust it smartly? <\/strong>&#8221; <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #269e38;\"><a style=\"color: #269e38; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/crossfitede.nl\/en\/our-box\/\">Read more about our box via this link.<\/a><\/span><\/span>  <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3058c45e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"3058c45e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">CrossFitting with back pain<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1bc1eb8e e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"1bc1eb8e\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3b9f858 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3b9f858\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p data-start=\"2566\" data-end=\"2657\">Back pain is the most frequently cited reason why people label CrossFit as dangerous. But low back pain does not automatically mean injury. In many cases (but not limited to) it involves:  <\/p><ul><li data-start=\"2745\" data-end=\"2760\">Overload<\/li><li data-start=\"2763\" data-end=\"2774\">Irritation<\/li><li data-start=\"2777\" data-end=\"2815\">Temporarily reduced load capacity<\/li><li data-start=\"2818\" data-end=\"2841\">Motion Sensitivity<\/li><\/ul><p data-start=\"2843\" data-end=\"2877\">What is important to understand: The load on the lower back increases as the trunk tilts forward and the external load increases. That doesn&#8217;t mean you should never deadlift again. It means you have to dose smartly.  <\/p><h5 data-start=\"3080\" data-end=\"3129\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">Examples of adjustments for back pain:<\/span><\/h5><ul><li data-start=\"3133\" data-end=\"3196\">Sumo deadlift instead of conventional (more vertical torso)<\/li><li data-start=\"3199\" data-end=\"3215\">Hex bar deadlift<\/li><li data-start=\"3218\" data-end=\"3237\">Sumo Kettlebell deadlift<\/li><li data-start=\"3240\" data-end=\"3277\">Goblet squat instead of back squat<\/li><li data-start=\"3280\" data-end=\"3319\">Front squat instead of low-bar back squat<\/li><li data-start=\"3322\" data-end=\"3351\">Less weight, more control<\/li><li data-start=\"3354\" data-end=\"3429\">Strict pull-ups instead of kipping for extension intolerance<\/li><\/ul><p data-start=\"3431\" data-end=\"3503\">We maintain the training goal.
