BOX JUMPS! Forever is there new name.

I giggled out LOUD at the article!! I have heard this same sentiment from SO many of my friends about this issue - ESP after I have this baby! I mean, anyone who has been in class with me in the last few months has seen me yell to Russell (or Tracey or Jake) as I was running toward the bathroom, "Gimme two minutes, gotta run pee!" just before we're all ready to start cause I've been afraid I was gonna lose it during a WOD. :) BTW, thanks for waiting around on me, guys, & thanks for sharing this link - so awesome of her to share her pain!!

Interesting Article. Like the author, I'd figure this more of a problem of the mature, parous, "older" clients. Not so much those that haven't had children. Anatomically it makes sense that jumping and hopping would cause mild urinary incontinence, I just didn't realize the magnitude of the problem. I'm not making jest, I just found this article interesting and I admire the authors candor.
Feeling beat up after CFT yesterday, so scaled the WOD.

WOD: 1/2 Forrest

Thanks Ryan for the push at the end. Really needed the motivation of being chased on that last round.

I would like to add that I know a girl that had this urinary incontinence problem due to box jumps and jump roping. She went to the urologist and had a surgical procedure performed and she said it fixed it and it was well worth it. So if it is real bad that may be an option.
