In this episode of Good Morning Murph, I sit down with Ja Myburgh – former elite gymnast, physiotherapist, and founder of Explore the Movement. We talk about the real injury risks in CrossFit, debunk common myths around kipping, handstand push-ups, and high-volume training, and discuss what truly prevents injuries.

Ja shares his personal story from competing internationally in gymnastics to building a coaching brand that now works with CrossFitters, rugby players, and athletes across Europe. We dive deep into topics like:

✅ What causes most CrossFit injuries (it's not bad technique!)🧠 The role of mental health in training & pain perception🛌 Why sleep is the #1 performance enhancer🏋️‍♂️ Mobility: overrated or essential?🎯 Strict vs. kipping movements – what really matters?🧢 Equipment like belts, grips & sleeves – useful or crutch?

Whether you're a beginner or competitive athlete, this conversation is packed with insights to help you train smarter, not harder.
