2 Ingredients for recovering from any overtraining injury faster

Everyday I help runners who are stuck by giving them a different perspective during a second opinion call. 

When we get on the call, we do a couple of things to get focused in the right direction and get them unstuck.

1) We figure out what their real goal is with running, not with injury. What race did you sign up for? How fast do you want to run? What are your long term goals with running? 

2) If those are the goals you really want to achieve, how is your present injury interfering with those goals?

What astonishes me is that many of the times when I talk to these athletes and I ask them what they're doing to work toward those goals, they are doing nothing. They tell me they are not running. They are losing all of their fitness. They are very frustrated.

Today on the Doc On The Run Podcast we're talking about two ingredients for recovering from any overtraining injury faster.
