Injury Prevention and Management

This week on the podcast Bek and Siri discuss the ever important topic of injury prevention and management.

Show Notes

Key Tips:
Avoid injury all together.
Once you start feeling something might not be right, if you have a "niggle":  STOP.  Stretch.  Foam Roll.  Then try again.
If the niggle is still there, stop and give yourself a couple of days to recover.
Placement of your sessions is everything.  Do your swims as a 2nd workout.
Communicate with your coach.  

Tight Calves?

Don't run fast
