Episode 11 - Doctor Sean Rockett, orthopedic surgeon, crossfitter, amazing person Get Off Our Lawn - CF Masters

    • Fitness

Welcome back to Get Off Our Lawn!!! In this episode, episode 11, we talk to Doctor Sean Rocket, the OG of crossfit Orthopedic surgeons. Angela and I get to ask him a wide range of questions about medicine and crossfit and motivation and how crossfit and nutrition has infiltrated his medical practice. Sean is a great person to talk to, and we really hope that you enjoy this episode.

Look, we all know that Crossfit is no more dangerous or injury causing than any other sport, but sometimes we get hurt, maybe we aggravate old injuries, or, we get a new injury. When that happens, the first thing we do is… ask the CF Masters facebook group to diagnose it for us and then suggest treatment.

Then we go to 321gomd.com to read an article about our injury written by a real doctor.

Sean Rockett is the real doctor behind 321gomd.com

He’s also an orthopedic surgeon. He’s been a crossfitter since before Ben Bergeron opened Crossfit New England, and Sean really, really cares about making people better.

I’ve listened to several podcasts with Sean, and the one thing that I was always interested in is “why?”

Why are you an orthopedic surgeon? Instead of being say an oncologist or a family medicine doc. How did you choose the path to orthopedics specifically?

OK, I’ll be totally honest. One of the things that fascinates me more than anything about everyone is - why are you who you are? How did you get here and what choices did you make along the way?

Thankfully, Sean shared his story with us and his desire to help people started at a young age. Thanks, in large part, to the influence of his parents who were both surgeons.

Early on when we started Get Off Our Lawn, Angela wanted to get Sean as a guest. She made it happen, and you get the benefit.

When it comes to interesting episodes this one absolutely takes the cake.

The only problem, and this is probably due to my WiFi - we lost the recording of when Sean beat Ben Bergeron in a WOD.

We could call up Sean and re-record that segment, but I think it would be much more interesting to send a camera out and record it live.

Enjoy!
