I see Ricky completely different today. He’s found a way to be candid about himself and life. Hoping you heal up better than ever, last years games was a great watch with you pursuing the crown.
Sad news, but live your life Ricky. Don't let anyone tell you what you should do with your life. Life's too short. Heal quickly and come back stronger.
I had the same injury back in 2021 while mountain biking (grade 3). As a CrossFitter, this injury is very scary. I opted non-surgical and have made a full recovery without surgery. Muscle ups, handstand push ups, overhead squats, heavyish clean and jerks (250#) I can all do without issue. Crazy how the body adapts when you train it right. It does help that I am a physical therapist. But none the less, heal up man! Take it slow, progress as tolerated, and you will be back at it!
Was looking forward to seeing you throw down this year, feel devastated for you. Accidents happen no matter what you’re doing, it’s life, good news is that it want worse. Concentrate on recovery let’s see you back when you’re ready!
Oh no.. sorry to hear this man. I was looking forward to seeing your performance at the games. Keep up the hard work. I hope to see you back again soon!
Oh man!!! I’m so sorry this happened to you. I was super excited to see you compete but I know not as excited as you were. I’ll be praying for your thorough and quick recovery! You will come back. You never quit!!!
Been there done that. Mtb is the bomb-good and bad. Totally understand the love for riding and the risk involved. You will be back next year. Patience. 👍🏼🤗
I'm sorry to hear you were injured, but you are strong and resilient. You WILL recover and come out stronger than ever before. Continue living your life. THAT is what the CrossFit lifestyle is all about. We will miss you this season, but are looking forward to seeing you next year! Speedy recovery.
Oh man Ricky, get well soon! ❤ God doesn’t give us things we can’t handle! You WILL make it through and come back better than ever! I agree with wanting to live your life as you see fit, don’t ever change that. Speedy recovery!
Damn mate! Sorry to hear this. I was really excited for you this year. Oh well, just get better for next year and do you. Hoping to see you compete in person in Birmingham AL next year
Really feel for you! Did a similar thing on a snowboard a year ago. Got a grade 5 AC joint dislocation. It takes time to come back, but today I am stronger in the shoulder than before. Remember to let the joint heal properly. My theragun made a big difference as a warm up before rehab.
Ahh im sorry to hear this but just remember all things happen for a reason that we'll never understand. God knows what your going through. Take it easy, heal and know you are appreciated and loved. God Bless you🙏
Sorry to hear this. I have loved watching your journey back to the games. You have dealt with adversity in the past. I know you’ll come back in great fashion. Cheers! ((HUGS))
Sorry to hear this! Glad you are true to yourself, though! I had an injury recently from a mountain bike crash too - it happens. Do what you love! Cheering for you to come back stronger!!
I’ve had both shoulders worked on for the same thing. Recovery is actually quite quick compared to what they tell you so don’t put yourself down too much.
Spewing your not at the games, watching the u tube stuff on the games and noticed you weren’t there , mate you’ll come back and get back on the podium next year for sure stay strong bro respect mate 💯🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
That’s a rough one. But we all know 2024 gonna be comeback season. We’ll all be rooting for you the whole time. Keep your head up mate, just a bump in the road.
Brutal. Really looking forward to seeing you and Roman on the floor. Like you said, this is a small bump compared to before. Keep positive, and we'll see you at Rogue!!
Hi Ricky I’ve had the same thing happen to both shoulders. It’s not the end of the world and you will heal. I rowed 5km on the Concept 2 just 8 weeks after my first surgery with no issues, so I have no doubt you will be back training fairly quickly 💪😊💪
I don’t think you are stupid. you gotta do what you love. Sucks to see you go down to an injury for this season. I just prayed for you to have quick healing.
I separated my AC joint 10 Months ago !! Just takes time !! It will get better !! Damn was really looking forward to watching you on the leaderboard !! 2024 !! Lfg !!!
Sorry to hear this Ricky. Tough break for you but you will definitely be back stronger. I ruptured my pec 6 months ago and have had so many issues with it, so can definitely feel your pain. 6 weeks in a sling is hard!
I done the same injury (AC JOINT grade 3) coming off a jump on my mountain bike. Took a long time to recover and still working with physio 1 year on but I will get there
Our heart is Broken we were really really cheering for you to win the crossfit games!:( so sorry!!!! but you know what thank God you are OK it's just a small thing you're Going to heal so quick and like you said there's a lot more games going on this year Best of luck with recovery you are a wonderful man Ricky we are cheering for you and let's pray from the Lord Jesus for you to win the crossfit game in 2024... meantime let's win Roque 2023!!❤
Wow that's no good, but you can't stop doing what you love keep up the mountain bikes... looking frd to you rivaling Justin for the number 1 place, can't wait for 2024 come back you got this stay strong keep your head up ❤
I feel this one Ricky… I travel the country for my corporate job I actually love, but I’m still racing motocross at a high level and havnt had injuries lately but when I ever do god forbid it will have an impact on my career at least temporary. It’s a fine line doing what you love and also having a gig which your gig is CrossFit. Don’t let it fuel an retirement or quitting thoughts I know you’re the one sacrificing, however I’m willing to bet any amount of MY money that you will win number 1 at the games in either 24 or 25 if you keep it up. I mean that, I know athletes and you’re capable and will, just don’t ever stop. Keep the fight, I’ll message you when you win and say told you so 🇺🇸 🇦🇺 ✊🏼💪🏼😤
Wishing you a full and speedy recovery Ricky.
Living your life is what makes you! Crossfit doesn’t define you! Speedy recovery and imagine how strong some other things will get!
The comeback is going to be greater than the setback. Keep it up!
Aww man that sux. Good luck in your recovery. Keep us updated!
I see Ricky completely different today. He’s found a way to be candid about himself and life. Hoping you heal up better than ever, last years games was a great watch with you pursuing the crown.
So sorry man. Was excited to see you, Roman and Justin go at it. Hope you get better quick man. See ya next year!
You will always be a champ! It’s a small bump - you will come back. Love you bro !
Sad news, but live your life Ricky. Don't let anyone tell you what you should do with your life. Life's too short. Heal quickly and come back stronger.
Keep your chin up mate. It was awesome watching you in 2022. You’ll be stronger for 2024.
We are still behind you Ricky…keep your head up and heal and come back better than ever!!!!

And get on blood flow restriction training ASAP. Atrophy sets in insanely quick when wearing a sling!
Was looking forward to seeing you throw down this year, feel devastated for you. Accidents happen no matter what you’re doing, it’s life, good news is that it want worse. Concentrate on recovery let’s see you back when you’re ready!
Oh no.. sorry to hear this man. I was looking forward to seeing your performance at the games. Keep up the hard work. I hope to see you back again soon!
That fucking sucks bro.
Hope recovery is good and your back stronger then ever soon !!!
Oh man!!! I’m so sorry this happened to you. I was super excited to see you compete but I know not as excited as you were. I’ll be praying for your thorough and quick recovery! You will come back. You never quit!!!

No apologies required.
If you don’t enjoy yourself outside of your CrossFit goal you won’t enjoy it.
Speedy recovery, looking forward to your return

Thats a bummer...no need for apologizing though. Looking forward to another big comeback of yours. Speedy recovery!

That sucks. Best of luck on the recovery! Come back stronger!!!
Really feel for you! Did a similar thing on a snowboard a year ago. Got a grade 5 AC joint dislocation. It takes time to come back, but today I am stronger in the shoulder than before. Remember to let the joint heal properly. My theragun made a big difference as a warm up before rehab.
Did the same thing a year ago. Crashed the MTB and worked my butt off to rehab back after surgery. You’ll be back.

I feel this one Ricky… I travel the country for my corporate job I actually love, but I’m still racing motocross at a high level and havnt had injuries lately but when I ever do god forbid it will have an impact on my career at least temporary. It’s a fine line doing what you love and also having a gig which your gig is CrossFit. Don’t let it fuel an retirement or quitting thoughts I know you’re the one sacrificing, however I’m willing to bet any amount of MY money that you will win number 1 at the games in either 24 or 25 if you keep it up. I mean that, I know athletes and you’re capable and will, just don’t ever stop. Keep the fight, I’ll message you when you win and say told you so 🇺🇸 🇦🇺 ✊🏼💪🏼😤
