Some people might find it weird or ridiculous but maybe some people might find it interesting. I have an injury in my meniscus since 4-5 months now, and I've never really took a break of training AND especially competitions. I didn't really know also what it was until I received the result from my MRT last month. It is hard for me to step back, to tell myself that I should reduce training and to decline for competitions. I was scared to not be able to do it, to be strong enough to say NO, to tell myself that I need to rest as training, becoming better has become an obsession. In attachment you can find a contract with myself, for the next two months I told myself that I won't do any competition and that I will focus on my recovery and increase my mental strength. I just wanted to share it with you, maybe it can inspire/help you, or also maybe not. But here we go :) What do you think? Did you already experience something similar?

Hey guys, just wanted to let you know: The first Videos of Own Your Hamstring Recovery are up! Just go to the "Classroom" Tab and you will find them there under Phase 0 (and soon Phase 1) What do you think about them? Any suggestions on how to adapt? Let me know and thanks in advance!

Hey everyone — and welcome! This space is for athletes & movers in transition, whether you’re coming back from injury, shifting how you train, or simply curious to explore new ways of moving and growing. Here’s what you can expect: - A community where we exchange, experiment, and learn together - Clear frameworks for recovery (starting with a hamstring recovery program) - Practical training + prevention ideas you can apply right away - Input and Exchange about tools for body awareness, confidence, and resilience ✨ To kick things off, I’d love to hear from you: What sport background are you from? What do you wish from this community + drop a simple photo of your current sports environment. It can look something like this: I am ________, my sports background is __________. From this community I wish to _____________! Here is a recent photo of me in my sports/rehab/workplace :) Let’s build a space that’s both evidence-based + deeply human. Own your transitions. Your body is your ally. Loopi

I’ve now spoken with 18 athletes after hamstring surgery or conservative rehab. One thing that stood out: The biggest transformation wasn’t just in the leg — it was how they saw their body as a whole. Athletes told me: - “I learned my glutes and core matter as much as my hamstring.” - “I realised pain doesn’t only mean damage, it means I need to listen.” - “Rehab taught me patience with my body, not fighting against it.” Recovery isn’t only about fixing a tendon. It’s about transforming the way you move, train, and trust your body again. ➡️ For those of you I interviewed: does this reflect your experience? ➡️ For everyone else: what part of your recovery has surprised you the most?
