The Blog: Reflections
“But don’t we want athletes to disconnect?”
The idea of disconnection is widely used as a practice in endurance sports. Words like “mind over body” have come out of my mouth in many capacities over the years. As I taught a spin class or coached a sprint triathlon group I asked people to push pass their physical limits. Not until private practice with eating disorders did I realize how dangerous this messaging was to everyone… especially athletes.
