#AskAchieve 77: Imbalances While Squatting, If Foam Rolling is Enough When You Have Knee Pain, and Shoulder Pain After Playing Tennis!

Summary: What's up, Achievers?! In this episode we really delve into injuries and pain. Oftentimes, when we have an injury or setback it can feel really debilitating - not only physically, but mentally and emotionally as well. Hopefully after listening to this episode (especially the last question), you'll have a better sense of how to go about managing your health and fitness and overall mindset next time you experience pain and/or injury. The important thing to always note is that your body is very resilient and can bounce back quickly. That mindset alone can really have a major impact on how quickly things can turn back around! In the first question, we talk about what to do when experiencing an imbalance while squatting (4:17). Next, we cover if foam rolling alone is enough to address knee pain (8:11) or any pain for that matter. Lastly, we talk about how we manage acute pain - the example in the question was someone experiencing shoulder pain after playing tennis without warming up (16:32). We hope you enjoyed this episode!
