DM #724: Many times when I write these DM’s I’m looking in the mirror…👀
—
What am I talking about tonight🤔? Well, your patients are human, so are you. Your patients sometimes overdo it; so do you. You respond to this by telling your patients to regress a bit, relax a bit, then regroup. The same should go for you👊🏽.
—
Many times, myself included, we are great when it comes to talking our patient’s off the ledge🙌🏾. But then when we need to do the same for ourselves, whatever injury or setback it is that we’re facing suddenly becomes catastrophic😱.
—
If your patient came in and had a sore achilles from increasing their running 🏃🏾♀️ volume too much, too quickly, you’d tell them that, then intervene and adjust accordingly. Find yourself with a sore achilles from the same thing and suddenly we question our entire training program, diet, and existence.
—
Am I talking about myself here? Perhaps 🤷🏽♂️. Does this still apply to other people. Surely.
—
Take home: When it comes down to it, you’re a patient too. Dispense and receive advice accordingly.

Daily Maestroisms dropping whenever the craziness of life allows 🤷🏽♂️. Get yours.
