Bloomsbury presents Rebound by Carrie Jackson Cheadle and Cindy Kuzma, read by Carrie Jackson Cheadle.

‘The evidence-backed guidance in this long-overdue resource is as crucial to managing the mental side of injury as good healthcare providers are to managing the physical side.’ Matt Fitzgerald, author of 80/20 Running

Written by a leading mental skills coach and contributing editor to Runner’s World (US), this is a practical guide to building the psychological resilience that athletes need to recover from injury and rebound stronger.

Injuries affect every athlete, from the elite Olympian to the weekend racer. In the moment, a traumatic crash, a torn muscle, or a stress fracture can feel like the most devastating event possible. While some athletes are destroyed by the experience, others emerge from their recovery better, stronger, and more confident than ever.

The key to a swifter, stronger comeback is the use of mental skills: psychological tools that enable an athlete to take control of their recovery and ultimately use the experience to their advantage. Injury and other setbacks are inevitable – but with training, overcoming them skillfully and confidently is possible.

This book will provide a clear, compelling explanation of psychological recovery from injury and a practical guide to building mental resilience. Weaving together personal narratives from star athletes, scientific research, and the specialized clinical expertise of mental skills coach Carrie Jackson Cheadle, it will contain more than 45 Mental Skills and Drills that athletes can use at every phase of their recovery process.

These same strategies can help athletes who aren’t currently injured reduce their vulnerability to injury, and enable any individual to reach new heights within their sport and beyond.

Cindy Kuzma is a Chicago-based journalist who specialises in fitness and health. She is a contributing editor at Runner’s World magazine, and co-author of Superfood Swap. She has spent the past 15 years writing for national print and online publications, including Men’s Health, Women’s Health, Prevention, espnW.com, VICE, SELF, Prevention, and USA Today magazines.

Carrie Jackson Cheadle M.A., is a mental skills expert and nationally known for her expertise in sports performance and psychological recovery from injury. She is the author of On Top of Your Game: Mental Skills to Maximize Your Athletic Performance.

Reviews

From this day forward, Rebound will be assigned reading for every athlete I coach who gets injured. The evidence-backed guidance in this long-overdue resource is as crucial to managing the mental side of injury as good healthcare providers are to managing the physical side. A refreshingly innovative approach to injury rehab. Rebound teaches athletes how to leverage the power of mindset to face injuries head-on, harness their own resilience, shift momentum, and journey down the most direct route to recovery—skills that are invaluable long after the physical wounds have healed. A great mix of stories, science, and drills. Successful athletes overcome injury with the same tools they use to reach peak performance, including good goals and the right mindset. Rebound teaches the strategies to best weather your (temporary!) setbacks. As a mental performance consultant, Rebound will be my go-to guide for injured athletes. It provides the essential mental skills to help athletes thrive in recovery in an easy to use, practical guide. A must-read! This book is an outstanding resource for not only for those in the process of bouncing back from an injury, but for every coach, athletic trainer or parent who aims to help their athlete navigate the psychological aspects of rehab. Carrie provides insight on what to expect when you get injured and action-oriented steps on how to not just come back, but to come back stronger than you were before. Rebound is essential reading for any athlete that is injured or going through the physical rehabilitation process. This book is basically a psychological playbook about how to not only recover from the injury setback, but also to thrive during the process to come back stronger and better than before the injury took place. This book needs to be in every athletic trainer and physical therapist’s office. As a pro athlete who recently endured a devastating injury, and as a coach who has supported athletes through injuries and on the road back, I found Rebound to be a wealth of knowledge and resources. Rebound provides athletes of all levels with actionable tips and mental skills to guide them back to a healthy mindset while they rehab and recover. A must-read for the injured athlete, and highly recommended for coaches as well—I plan to utilize the mental drills in Rebound in my own coaching. Expand reviews
