Yes, I'm a Pelvic Physical Therapist and I don't think every female that leaks and has an abdominal gap should stop doing CrossFit.  In fact, many activities we do every day puts more stress on our pelvic floor than heavy lifting. Let's start with things we all do...sneezing and coughing, put more force on our pelvic floor.  Next question, does squatting to lift nothing from the ground or say a two gallons of juice from a counter? Two gallons of juice.  Last one, walking 2 miles or crunches? Are you thinking crunches? Well I got this one wrong too, it's walking.  These are some of the things I learned in a course given by Antony Lo, The Physio Detective.  If you are leaking when you CrossFit and would like help scaling exercises, I'd like to help you. Send me an email or leave a voice message.
