In the Season 04, Episode 03 of the "Vegans Who Lift" podcast, hosts John Thomas, aka The Bodybuilding Vegan, and Brooke Sellers, aka Miss Meatless Muscle, dive into an insightful discussion about injury prevention and recovery in the world of vegan fitness. The conversation is filled with practical advice on how to work around injuries, maintaining proper form, and knowing one's limits in training. Both John and Brooke share personal experiences, including their own injuries and the lessons learned from them.

From dropping plates on their feet to managing lingering back and adductor issues, the hosts emphasize the importance of warming up, using proper technique, and listening to your body. Brooke talks about how she manages lower back pain from a past injury, while John discusses his recurring hamstring and adductor injuries and how specific warm-ups helped him avoid further setbacks.

They also touch on the psychological aspect of dealing with injuries, and how to stay motivated during recovery. Plus, there’s an engaging conversation on the myth of needing meat to heal better, as well as alternative ways to stay healthy and strong without sacrificing your vegan values.
