It is still sad. I need someone in Aspen to fix it! Where’s my Austin Sports Therapy Dr. Kyler in this ski town? I need ART, myofascial release, sports massage … somethin’!

Here’s My Ankle
Because I love injury photos … Bruises look so nice a few days after whatever happened, huh? I’m really mobile on the ankle, went for an hour and a half walk yesterday and felt great. Woke up sore this morning in the ankle, but nothing a little MSM and ibuprofen can’t handle. Laying off the…
Ankle Sprain
I made it through 16 years of competitive basketball with just one ankle sprain–quite the feat for a female basketball player. And then. Last night I was playing some more basketball, and I jumped up and came down on the foot of the guy I was defending. My ankle rolled out and then in, I…
Overtraining or Injured?
I was talking to my frequent training partner, who also happens to be a nurse and incredibly nutrition savvy, V, the other night, and she mentioned something I hadn’t keyed in on in my quest to understand what’s going on with me – I’ve been injured. The shoulder still hurts, a lot. I can’t do…

Lunge Circus
Gimpy WODs still suck. Today was my only two-a-day of this week (I think) and it was fine, I wasn’t tired or anything, but I’m TIRED of exclusively working my legs. Is this even good for me? Should I be yoga-ing instead? I can’t put my arm overhead with yoga either … Anyway, our warmup…
And then I knocked my tooth loose
I did the warmup (200 jumprope jumps, 500 M row, 20 back extensions, 20 GHD situps, 20 squats) and the pre-WOD workout (5 x 5 Renegade Rows, 2 rounds at 15# dumbells, 3 at 20# dumbells). I was going to take on the WOD with the rest of the class when I realized the two…
