The Rewire Fitness app is geared towards athletes, but after learning more about it, and after talking to Sun Sachs, I can see an obvious correlation to brain injury/concussion recovery. The app is "designed to holistically quantify athlete readiness, build mental resilience, and improve mind/body recovery." I talk to Sun about the three pillars of the Rewire Fitness program; Train, Diagnose, Recover.There is also the Rewire Fitness Podcast where, to quote Sun, they "geek out" about neuro-performance and the three pillars mentioned above.Link to Rewire Fitness's special offer on concussiontalk.com - Podcast description for this episode.Please consider supporting Concussion Talk Podcast on Patreon!

Associate Professor Alan Pearce of La Trobe University in Melbourne, Australia, Neuro Sports Labs, and the Australian Sports Brain Bank is a trove of knowledge and current information about brain injury, including concussion, CTE, persistent concussion symptoms (PCS), especially regarding Australian sports. We discuss all of that and more, including, psychological issues often seen after brain injury, Australian Rules Football, and a surprising (to me anyway) uptick in ice hockey popularity down under.
