Janet Black, 2015 CrossFit Games Masters Champion, walked into a CrossFit box just six short years ago looking to get some new ideas to work into her usual training regimen. It only took a few classes before she was completely hooked on the sport. “Over six years later, I have never looked back,” said Black.
Black has always been active, but when she met her strength and conditioning coach, and now husband, in 2000, she turned her focus to weight and strength training. This is when she began to see positive changes in her body that she loved. With no more fear of “bulking up,” she now focuses on what her body is telling her and how she feels.
“I have learned over the years to listen to my body in regards to nutrition, training, and rest,” said Black.
In listening to her body, Black has learned what an important part mobility mobility plays in her performance.
“Mobility is my savior,” said Black. “I always have a lacrosse ball with me and will use it at random times.”
However, Black doesn’t just rely on mobility exercises at home, she also utilizes Airrosti’s Dr. Kristina Kulcak when she has any injuries or issues she can’t seem to resolve on her own. Dr. Kulcak works with Black to pinpoint the root of her pain and relieve it quickly. She also prescribes at-home mobility and stability exercises to help speed Black’s recovery and prevent future injuries.
“The exercises take time and discipline to do, but it is so worth it,” Black said. “With the combination of Airrosti, quality nutrition, some supplementation, and a periodic massage from my husband, I am able to continue to push myself day in and day out.”
Black doesn’t just use Airrosti during training, she makes herself a regular at Airrosti’s Athlete Services tent while competing at the Games.
“[During the 2015 Games,] the Airrosti doctors worked to improve my range of motion before each workout and reduced my pain,” said Black. “When it was all said and done, I ran into the tent to thank Airrosti as I truly felt that we had won the Games together!”
