Fear After Injury: What No One Talks About — And How to Move Forward

Send us a text

This one’s for the athlete who’s physically healing, but still mentally stuck. In today’s episode, I’m getting brutally honest about the part of injury no one warns you about — the fear that lingers after the pain fades.

I’ll share my own story — from GHD sit-ups to squat racks and back pain flare-ups — and break down:

• Why fear after injury is normal, not weakness
• What fear actually looks like inside your training
• How pain rewires your brain — and how to fight back
• Tools to rebuild trust in your body and stop overanalyzing every rep
• Why you don’t need the fear to be gone before you start again

This isn’t a “just be positive” talk. It’s the raw truth, real strategies, and a reminder that fear doesn’t mean stop. It means it matters. And your comeback isn’t just physical — it’s mental, too.

Fear is real, but so is your comeback.
