You want to keep exercising, but when something hurts you start second-guessing everything because you don't know what's okay to do && what might make it worse.

This 5-question quiz will help you figure out whether you can keep going, if you should modify your workout, or if it's time to get it further assessed. && then I'll show you what to do next.

IF YOU'VE EVER:

  • Stood in front of the squat rack wondering if squatting was going to make your knee worse.

  • Skipped a workout because you weren't sure what you were actually allowed to do.

  • Modified half your workout because something hurt last time && you don't want to risk making it worse.

  • Put on shorts or a tank top && wished you felt a little stronger/more confident in them again.

  • Turned down a hike, trip, or something active because you're worried you'll hurt or hold everyone else back.

  • Felt anxious that if you keep doing the "wrong" thing, you're eventually going to make this injury even worse.

Something hurting doesn't automatically mean you need to stop exercising.
But it also doesn't mean you should ignore it && just push through.

The goal is knowing how to tell the difference.

Your symptoms can give you a lot of information, you just need to know what to pay attention to.

That's exactly what this 5 question quiz will help you do.
