Kristin Holte

Kristin Holte

Kristin Holte is one of the top women in CrossFit having finished 2nd at the 2019 CrossFit Games and 7th in both 2017 and 2018. But what’s also impressive is that she’s been able to perform at a high level dealing with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (pinched nerve in the wrist which causes numbness, tingling, and pain) for quite some time now. 
 
In fact, Holte’s most recent surgery was long overdue as she’s been dealing with this issue in her left wrist for over a year. But this wasn’t her first time going under, due to the same issue in her right wrist as she explained in a recent Instagram post… 

“I will be back! #Kriger Two weeks ago I was in surgery for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome on my left wrist🤚🏼This is something I have struggled with for over a year and there was just no way around it anymore.

I had the same surgery on my right wrist in November 2016 and for those of you who remember Meridian Regionals 2017, you know that it ended pretty well. 🏆☺️”

But she’s recovering quite nicely and expects to have full function of her hand in about 4 weeks.

“Recovery is going great and I should be back to using my hand as normal in about 4 weeks. In the meantime I am biking, running and building super strong legs. #NoExcuse I do believe that every injury or setback is a great opportunity to learn, grow and come back stronger and better than ever.

So that is what I am going to do! ✨ #IWillBeBack Thanks to @Apexklinikken for the support and help with recovery.”

Kristin Holte is a native of Norway who has qualified for the CrossFit Games every year since 2013 when she placed 7th at the Europe Regional. But she’s been pretty successful thus far even dealing with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and hopefully, it does propose an issue for her moving forward.

    For those CrossFit Athletes similar to Kristin who suffer from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Ovation Hand Institute performs a completely non-surgical, office-based procedure that takes 15 minutes per hand, and will have you resuming normal activities in 7 days. It is also a fraction of the cost of a surgical procedure. No therapy or intervention compares to our procedure.
