The rigors of high intensity training can take its toll, and in turn require some rest and relaxation. Sometimes it is a good idea to take a few days off and allow our bodies to repair and rejuvenate. Most often we can return reinvigorated and ready for more. What happens however if we miss say a month? Do we return ready or are we starting over? Just like our first ever CrossFit experience, it is always a good time to start. We may need to modify a WOD or take some weight off the bar, but getting back in and starting anew is not as daunting a task as it may seem. CrossFit is about universal scalability. No matter where you are in your fitness journey, now is a good time to get better.
