You’re Not Burnt Out. You’re Under-Recovered.

Описание: Most people who think they’re burnt out aren’t actually burnt out. They’re under-recovered.

In this episode of the Getting After It Podcast, we break down why burnout is so often misdiagnosed—especially for men—and how exhaustion, under-fueling, lack of rest, and emotional overload can make everything in life feel wrong.

When you’re under-recovered:
• The work you once loved feels pointless
• Discipline starts to feel heavy instead of grounding
• Motivation disappears
• Quitting feels like the only option

But making permanent decisions while operating in recovery debt is dangerous.

Using endurance training as a metaphor, we explore the difference between true burnout and depletion, why rest alone isn’t always enough, and how intentional recovery—physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual—can restore clarity before you walk away from something meaningful.

This episode is especially relevant for:
• Men dealing with quiet burnout or emotional detachment
• Runners and athletes pushing without proper recovery
• High performers who feel stuck, flat, or disconnected
• Anyone considering quitting something they once cared deeply about

Before you stop… Before you quit… Recover first. Then decide.

Keep Getting After It.

Getting After It is for those who. want to silence their self-doubt. Refuse to be owned by comfort. Understand their limits are man-made and breakable. We live in a time of constant comparison. Social media drowns us in highlight reels and overnight success stories. But what most people don’t see is the grit behind it all. The reps. The quiet mornings. The sacrifices. The failures.


You are just getting started. Keep Getting After It.
