Reading Corner: The Treatment of “Rips” (Wounds) on the Gymnasts’ Hands by Larry Nassar, DO, ATC, USAG National Team Medical Staff, Great Lakes Gymnastics Club Team Physician

Note: We are planning the screening of the CrossFit documentary EVERY SECOND COUNTS on the weekday after the classes, in the middle of next week. We can either cancel an 8pm session one of the days or do it right after the class, at 9pm. The movie is about 1.5hr long. Please let me know your thoughts.

“EVERY SECOND COUNTS takes an inside look at the CrossFit culture and community, where time on a stopwatch reigns as the supreme measure of performance. Those who reach the elite ranks in the burgeoning sport of CrossFit push themselves beyond limitations imposed by the mind and flirt with the limits of physical capacity. Human perseverance has never voluntarily gone this far.

EVERY SECOND COUNTS chronicles the dramatic journey of five athletes as they prepare for and compete in the most comprehensive test of fitness on the planet, the CrossFit Games. The road to this grueling two-day program of extreme challenges reveals what it takes to be the best in the world. The climactic finish, with its surprising turn of events, shows beyond any doubt that the winner of the CrossFit Games is the fittest person on earth.”
