I already knew mental health plays a huge role in injury recovery, because I’ve lived it and seen the effects on athletes who get injured. But I started thinking: If support helps athletes recover, why do so many athletes go through injuries feeling alone? I think most people outside of sports assume recovery
Can Mental Toughness Really Help Athletes?
Image from Google: Sports Psychology Image Last week, I talked about how hormones can affect injury in women athletes. This whole research has also been about how mental health can affect injury/ recovery, but this week, I wanted to look at it from the other side because there is a major debate about mental health vs mental toughness, and how we balance it. A topic that challenges my original argument is, what if we trained our minds before the injury even happens? My questio
