THE MEG METHOD

#281 - The Dreaded Niggle


Listen Later

That ache you’ve been brushing off? The tightness that shows up mid-run, or that annoying twinge after a lift? It’s not going to magically disappear when your schedule calms down. And ignoring it might be costing you more than you realise.

In this episode, we dive into:

  • Why athletes and go-getters are the worst at listening to early warning signs
  • The difference between treating symptoms vs. solving the root cause
  • How your body works as a whole system and what that means for your mobility, performance, and pain
  • The emotional toll of injury (and how to navigate it without spiralling)

This isn’t about adding more to your plate, it’s about working smarter, not harder. Because long-term strength doesn’t come from pushing through pain. It comes from listening, adjusting, and training in a way that supports your future, not just your next race.
