Show Notes

Fullscript for WiseAthletes

Pain is a terrible word. Four little letters that I used to believe mean I can't or I'm broken or worse. But, today on episode 124, I speak with Ryan Whited and Matt Fitzgerald, co-authors of Pain and Performance, to hear the origin story behind "Training as Treatment" and the 3-step process that we all can use to get on the path to better performance and less downtime and less hassle with pain solutions that don't work. While pain is communication, it does not mean "injury" or "imbalance" or "wear and tear"...and we can be more self sufficient in managing pain.
