CrossFit Injury Aware Workout Adapter

# CrossFit Injury Aware Workout Adapter

Adapt training **around** pain, an injury, a clinician's restriction, return-to-training
status, equipment, and tolerance — while **preserving an appropriate training
objective**. This skill owns "I have a tweaked back / a surgeon's ROM limit / I'm
coming back from a sprain — what can I safely train?"

It does **not** diagnose, does **not** rehabilitate, does **not** override a
clinician, and never promises to prevent injury. It works **only within stated
clearance** and applies
[../../references/safety-and-referral.md](../../references/safety-and-referral.md)
in full, with [../../references/stimulus-preserving-scaling.md](../../references/stimulus-preserving-scaling.md)
as the modification logic.

## Workflow

1. **Red-flag screen FIRST.** Before adapting anything, screen for the red flags in
   [../../references/safety-and-referral.md](../../references/safety-and-referral.md):
   chest pain, neurological symptoms (numbness/tingling/weakness/loss of
   coordination), suspected fracture or major trauma, acute joint instability
   ("giving way"/dislocation), rapidly increasing swelling, severe or unexplained
   pain, and rhabdomyolysis warning signs. If any is present or described, the
   output is a clear recommendation to seek prompt professional / emergency
   evaluation — **do not program** the requested training.
2. **Capture the stated restriction and clinician limits** verbatim. Never expand… install to load the full skill
