In this episode, George sits down with Marita Marshall to discuss the realities of exercise and injury prevention.

They explore the most common causes of training setbacks, how to differentiate normal soreness from problematic pain, and why proper progression matters more than intensity.

This conversation is practical, science-informed, and focused on helping active adults build resilience instead of cycling through injury and frustration.

Whether you’re restarting after time off or looking to train smarter long term, this episode offers a clear framework for sustainable performance.

In this episode of Beyond The Reps, Clinical Director Alison Gotip breaks down the real link between physical activity and addiction recovery — and why movement can be one of the most effective tools for long-term sobriety.

We dig into:

• How exercise supports the treatment of addiction

• The clinical definition of addiction vs pop-culture “addicted” talk

• Whether exercise itself can become addictive

• What a real exercise prescription (Rx) looks like in recovery

• Relapse (recidivism) rates in exercisers vs non-exercisers

• Why some exercise protocols work better than others

This is an honest, evidence-based conversation about addiction, stigma, healing, and the role structured movement can play in rebuilding lives right here in Barbados.
