This episode of the Athletes Compass Podcast brings physiotherapist David Wadsworth to the mic for a deep dive into pain management, injury prevention, and the crucial role of strength training for endurance athletes. We explore the science behind chronic pain, the importance of proper diagnostics, and actionable strategies to improve mobility, strength, and resilience. Whether you're a runner, cyclist, or triathlete, this episode offers practical tips for reducing injury risks, optimizing performance, and maintaining athletic longevity.

Key Takeaways:

  • Training Load: Gradual increases in training are key to avoiding overuse injuries.
  • Acute vs. Chronic Pain: Acute pain involves structural damage; chronic pain is often tied to nervous system sensitivity and may lack visible injury markers.
  • Role of Fascia: Fascia plays a significant role in mobility and injury recovery; unresolved tightness can perpetuate inflammation and pain.
  • Strength Training: Comprehensive strength training, not just sport-specific exercises, is crucial for injury prevention and balanced development.
  • Warm-Up and Technique: Incorporating drills and specific movements into warm-ups can improve running economy and prevent injuries.
  • Aging Athletes: As strength naturally declines with age, maintaining muscle and incorporating diverse movements become even more important.
  • The Mental Side of Injury: Adapting goals and focusing on recovery processes can reduce the emotional toll of being sidelined.
