Have Therapy Clients Returned To Weight Training?

Video Transcript

I’m working with one of your recommended therapists and I feel like my body is less hyperstimulated and feeling better. But I’m a bit discouraged because I still can’t lift weights without feeling symptoms. I’m hoping I can weight train and workout again after I’m recovered. So, my question is, have any of your therapy clients returned to weight training after they have recovered from hyperstimulation?

Yes, they have. For instance, I (Jim Folk) worked with a client who loved body-building and had to stop training because of his severe struggle with anxiety disorder and hyperstimulation. Toward the end of our time together, he returned to body-building with no problem.

I also worked with a Mixed Martial Arts competitor who had a rigorous training routine before we began working together. He also returned to training and competition when he recovered from anxiety disorder and hyperstimulation. He’s still competing today, and that’s many years later.

Many of our therapy clients have returned to their former workout routines after recovery. So, there is good reason to be hopeful.

Recovering from anxiety disorder and hyperstimulation is temporary when you do the right work. Working with an experienced anxiety disorder therapist is the most effective way to overcome anxiety disorder and hyperstimulation.

Once that work is done, there’s no reason why you can’t return to the things you love, including weight training and rigorous workouts.
