Does your periodontist do deadlifts?  If not, you should find a new one.  Eric Tsai, a periodontist here in Walnut Creek, says CrossFit has helped him to sustain longer during extended surgical procedures.  I know if I were undergoing a long surgery, I would much rather have a doctor that can run 1 mile then do 100 pullups, 200 pushups, 300 squats and then run another mile, all in one hour’s time…. rather than some doc that goes on the elliptical for 20 minutes 3x/week.  That’s just one more thing to add to the list of benefits from CrossFit… making your daily work easier.

Good luck to all the masters that will be competing in Saturday’s event at the Sweat Shop!
