We had the AMAZING opportunity to chat with Cory Camp, former swimmer and founder of Forever Athlete, about his story, transitioning out of swim, and so much more! Follow along with his story! Pre Order Here! Also, be sure to follow us on Instagram and join our growing Facebook Group!

In this episode I explain what my ultimate mission is: to keep swimmers in the water. This is not simply from an injury standpoint, but also looking at aspects of burnout in general. I give an overview of the programming I will be releasing soon. Check it out!

I have always been an "in my own head" kind of gal.  I think...a lot! Sometimes I wonder if I would have developed this skill the same way if I did not participate in such a relatively isolated sport.  Sometimes when I think about the amount of hours in my most formative years spent swimming back and forth seeing the same black line, hearing the same white noise, and processing my thoughts.....it is a little baffling! Let's just do some simple math on the conservative side of things and say I swam for 1 hour a day, 5 days a week, for 10 years. That is 2400 HOURS in developmental years where I was primarily in my head thinking while exercising.  Most high school aged club swimmers practice 2 hours, 5-6 days a week....so just in high school alone for 4 years they might average 1920-2300 hours of pool time.... While I am a Doctor of Physical Therapy, I am no psychologist.  I do have to assume, however, that my keen ability to process out my thoughts during exercise was crafted greatly by my swimming background.   What do you think?  Does this resonate with you?
