When you get injured, a lot of things go wrong.

1. Because you have pain, you suspect you have to stop training.

2. When you see a doctor, they confirm your fear and tell you that you really need to rest.

You translate that into really strict rest, doing nothing basically. You stop exercising. You stop training.

All kinds of bad stuff starts to happen. It is a lot more than just losing aerobic fitness.

Today on the Doc On The Run Podcast, we’re talking about how it is that the longer you wait, the more pain you can expect when you actually return to running after you get an over-training injury.

  1. Thank you for your channel doctor. I wonder if you have made a video tailored to older runners in their sixties or seventies? Maybe a video about some limitations for us compared to the younger runners?
