Reconstruyendo a Milón

Milo of Crotona was an ancient Greek Olympian who, according to legend, developed his strength from a young age by lifting a calf and carrying it on his shoulders all day. As the calf grew, so did Milo's strength; thus the concept of progressive load increase was born. However, pushing our bodies to the limit day in and day out also has its price. An accumulated effort that exceeds the adaptive capacities of our muscles and joints, without adequate rest and recovery time, can cause persistent injuries that compromise our performance. Dr. Aaron Horschig teaches you a better way to manage pain and injury. This book offers you a step-by-step plan to rehabilitate your body and return to the sports and activities you love. Without pain. The widespread belief that pain is a medical problem is wrong. Treating the symptoms with pain relievers and anti-inflammatories instead of attacking the cause of the pain will not solve the problem. To achieve this, you have to correct movement patterns, improve mobility problems and regain strength in a safe and effective way. This book teaches you how to do it.
