Healthy Sport (Part 1) - What's the problem?

In part 1 of our three-part mini-series on healthy sport, Justin speaks with Jessie Thomas, Leah Versteegen and Anya Gue. This wide-ranging conversation considers our culture's strained relationship with athletics. Though a force for good in many of our lives, the pressure to perform in sport can lead to over-training, premature specialization and an unhealthy degree of self-identification with athletics. We consider the role of coaches, parents, and clinicians in this delicate balance and identify markers of dysfunction to look for in ourselves and others.Learn more about Jessie at www.sustainablewellness.netLearn more about Anya at www.endurancephysio.netLearn more about Leah at www.alpineptmissoula.com This is a public episode.
