Pain and injury are part of the experience of sporting activities. My guests, Clinical Psychologists James Bruce, Jr., Ph.D., and Anne-Marie Nicolas, Psy.D., will talk about how competitive athletes deal with pain and avoid injury. The principles of sports psychology can be used by recreational athletes, non-athletes, and people with chronic pain to reduce the experience of pain. We will also talk about how careful planning and realistic goal-setting can help us avoid injuries during sports activities and physical workouts.
