We'd all prefer the left trajectory...
Sometimes, we end up on the right 🤷‍♂️

☝ Thing is - no one's to blame for that ☝

Our rehab exists within a life that is full of things we don't have much control over.
And all of these things that happen in and around our space, influence how we move through it.

🔥 Sometimes we just have to accept where we're at (take a minute if you need it), reevaluate (if required) and continue on a path that moves us in a positive direction.

☀️ Support and guidance go a long way too, so let those you trust, help you along the way 😊

ℹ️ Overuse injuries in running are often quite different to an acute injury (such as an ankle sprain).

Acute injuries will usually continue to improve with rest and a progression back into normal use over a fairly short period of time.

Overuse injuries on the other hand can be VERY annoying because even after rest (and a complete resolution of pain) they come back as soon as we start running again 😡

As this continues we then get stuck in a "pain ➡️ rest ➡️ resume activity ➡️ pain" cycle (known as 'boom/bust') that ultimately leads to frustration and deconditioning.

🔥 The answer? 🔥

1️⃣ Identify which tissues are injured (diagnosis)
2️⃣ Break the boom/bust cycle (Load management)
3️⃣ Optimise recovery (Sleep, diet etc.)
4️⃣ Rebuild injured tissue capacity (Strength/endurance training)
5️⃣ Progressive return to running OR Progressive increase in running
