In this episode, the team explains how to keep training productively while you heal—from modifying volume and exercise selection to using safer implements and surfaces that reduce impact. We cover return‑to‑lifting timelines, when to substitute machines for free weights, and how to structure conditioning so you maintain work capacity without aggravating the issue. You’ll also hear checklists for lower‑back, knee, shoulder, and hand injuries, plus simple ways to use mats, rollers, and recumbent cardio to speed recovery.
