Working out is essentially damaging you body so it can heal and get stronger . . . so don't hammer so hard that you lose the nail. This is a GREAT time to find yourself and build your body for the long run. Quick fixes and hacks are popular because they don't work and we keep trying something new. Step back and be one with the process. Find the joy and love in the sport along the way to transforming your life.
