In this episode, I break down the eight most common injuries recruits face during training and exactly how to avoid them so you don't get stuck in purgatory. From the inevitable "recruit crud" to painful stress fractures, I explain how to prepare your body to stay healthy and out of the Medical Rehabilitation Platoon. Plus, I share why you should absolutely handle your wisdom teeth before shipping out to avoid the "military way" of dental work.
