Thriving as an Easily Injured Triathlete

As a triathlete, you've probably dealt with your fair share of aches, niggles, and injuries. But being injury-prone doesn't mean you can't succeed, it may just mean giving your body a little extra attention. This week, Dr. B.J. Leeper joins the podcast to share strategies for staying healthy and continuing to train when injuries seem to be a recurring challenge. B.J. breaks down common injuries, how everyday mistakes can contribute to them, and how to tell the difference between normal discomfort and pain that means you should stop. We also discuss the importance of adapting your training to meet your needs. Plus, B.J. shares tips for stretching, mobility, and recovery tools that can help keep your body healthy and moving. Finally, B.J. introduces his newest offering, Leeper Labs, which provides virtual consultations for athletes looking for additional guidance. If you've ever felt like injuries are holding you back from reaching your running goals, this episode is packed with advice to help you keep moving forward.
