#7- When to push through injury, Concussion, Faster recovery, How to train while injured

This week on The Fitness Experiment Podcast we discuss when to push through injuries, and when to stop. The signs and symptoms to look for (and how to differentiate between serious injuries and simply training discomfort). We also talk about concussions in particular, what happens in the brain, and cutting edge new research from the University of Toronto that has completely changed how athletes recover from injury. The rate of perceived exertion during fitness (RPE), and the importance of your mindset while injured. How to SCALE workouts when injured and how to maintain a high level of fitness and performance depending on the specific injury at hand.
