It is a non-fatiguing dynamic shoulder warm up, designed to activate the essential structures of the shoulder complex. The Activation program is the most important phase of the H.I.I.T System and should be used prior to any workout. To reduce pain there are 4 phases: ACTIVATION PHASE The Crossover Symmetry H.I.I.T (High Intensity Interval Training) System was engineered and developed by top sports physical therapy experts, athletes, and coaches.The Crossover Symmetry System will help most athletes who are experiencing symptoms of shoulder impingement and will restore them back to pain free training in as little as 3 weeks. You might be asking what this system is and how does it work. The goal is to facilitate safe and efficient shoulder mechanics, reduce the risk of shoulder injury, and improve overhead performance. The system addresses the specific needs, time constraints, and demands of the CrossFit athlete by combining the three phases of the Crossover Symmetry System (Activation, Recovery, and Plyometric), along with IRON SCAP, the high intensity scapular strengthening program. You are not going to reduce the pain in your shoulders without addressing the underlying issue. To permanently fix your shoulders you need to address the problem, not mask the symptoms with pain killers and tape. While these are great moralities to reduce the pain temporarily it will return unless you fix the dysfunction and restore the balance to your shoulder. This can only be done by activating and strengthening the dynamic stabilizers of the shoulder complex, which is exactly what the Crossover Symmetry system is designed to do. How can you do this? The crossover symmetry system is one tool that you can use to help strengthen these muscles. However, we want to be “Scapjacked” and have strong shoulders to PR and RX the weight pain free. If you are doing enough mobility, which in most cases you are not, that will help to prevent some injury. Think about doing a WOD with thrusters, wall balls and muscle ups for 20 minutes and your shoulders are taking a beating. In general, sports are not good for shoulder health. From doing snatches, jerks, and presses they are important for many movements. Your shoulders are used A LOT in CrossFit.
