Amy Johnson joins The Adaptive Athlete Podcast to share her journey from living with a brachial plexus injury to finding CrossFit as a lifeline.
She talks about the challenges of growing up with limited use of her right arm, how discovering CrossFit transformed her pain management, and what it means to compete on the CrossFit Games stage.
Amy also reflects on coaching as an adaptive athlete, protecting her “good” arm, and dedicating her training to the students she works with as an occupational therapist.
