Tissue Healing
Kelly Starrett is CrossFit’s Mobility and Recovery facilitator: Here are some key notes from his Tissue healing talk:

Tissue healing: times and stages
– Example of a tissue injury: 4-6 weeks for a bad sprang ankle.
– We can not outrace our bodies healing times and physiology
– All tissues have a threshold above which they fail
– Every tissue fails absolutely
– An ideal ready state will bring that tissue tolerance to a maximal level
– After injury muscular/skeletal tissues never return to normal
– You may be “healed” but that tissue is not the same tissue
– Strength and conditioning will only normalize tissues
– “You can’t outrace your physiology, you can’t erase whats been done” -Kstar

Factors that impede healing
1. Age
2. Nutrition
3. Sleep
4. Stress: increased cortisol and lepton
5. Doing nothing “bed rest and immobilization is death” -kstar
6. Diabetic
7. Anti-coagulants
8. Cortico steroids “Asthma”
9. Non Steroidal anti inflammatory NSAIDS “ibuprofen”

How do we manage inflammation? ICE!
