#34 - What Is Pain Trying To Teach You And How To Move Pain Free As An Athlete
Manage episode 500259987 series 3683581
Ever feel like your body is constantly betraying you—with pain, tightness, or injury—no matter how hard you train or how careful you are?
.
.
In this episode, I break down the science of load vs. capacity—a concept that completely shifts how you view pain, performance, and your ability to move well long term.
.
.
Whether you’re an athlete mom dealing with chronic aches, postpartum healing, or performance plateaus, this episode will help you understand why your body flares up and how to train smarter without backing off the things you love.
.
.
You’ll learn:
What “load” and “capacity” actually mean (and how to measure yours)
Why pain doesn’t mean damage—and what your body is trying to tell you
The exact steps to reduce overload and start increasing your resilience today
Myths to stop believing about stretching, rest, age, and injury
Tools you can implement right now to move better, feel stronger, and trust your body again
I share insights from my own journey as an athlete, mom, and coach—after 3 knee surgeries, stress fractures, and postpartum recovery—and how I help my clients rebuild capacity so they can live pain-free, perform well, and feel unstoppable in their bodies again.
