In this episode, we discuss getting hurt, pain and injuries.

Injuries, for most, are inevitable and we're unfortunate enough to have had our fair share of them. So join us as we draw upon our experiences to talk about the process of recovering, how to work around them and what we'd do differently to be able to avoid it all happening in the first place.

It's important to mention that we are in NO WAY injury experts, so as a disclaimer, we cannot treat or offer any specific advice, nor do we intend for this podcast to act as an alternative from seeking treatment from a trained healthcare practitioner such as a doctor or physiotherapist.

In this episode, we talk about the differences in training between aesthetics vs athletics, i.e. training for function and performance vs training just to "look good". Which one should you choose? Are the two mutually exclusive? Do the two benefit one another? We go in and break down the various benefits of each and how you might decide which one you should set your sights on.

We also talk about the importance of talking to your mates. It's been a tough few months for many of us, so there's never been a more important time to reach out to your friends and check in on them. Starting up these conversations with friends about mental health could very well be lifesaving.

We love putting this podcast together and we hope you enjoy listening to it too.
