Timestamps of big takeaways

The Idea of Resting When You Have an Injury

[00:34] Coach Caroline encourages people to think about moving by doing basic things such as going to the bathroom or heading to the kitchen, especially if they are experiencing a strained muscle or spasm.

How Our Body Works When Regenerating

[1:26] If you pull something and don't do anything for six months, the situation will just get worse. Your bones will change to fit your surroundings, and running strengthens your bones' capacity to support your weight. Even when slightly injured or bruised, you have to keep the blood flowing in an injured body. You can use ice, heat, and elevation to cause blood to flow to the area and decrease inflammation.

Virtual Clinic with The Coaches

[04:14] Coach Caroline discusses a virtual clinic that is being held in July. It’s a 7-day training online filled with mindset, running training, and more.

[05:16] When you need to know, is that even when you’re injured, you can work with RunRx. We’ve seen it all - bad feet, tight hips, bum knees, etc… All of these injuries can still benefit from our clinics with the help of modified drills and training.

[06:50]

There are many exercises you can modify to accommodate your injury, from burpees to push-ups. Many of those workouts can be modified for your body type as well - just one example is using bands for push-ups.
