SaltWrap Built from Broken: A Science-Based Guide to Healing Painful Joints, Preventing Injuries, and Rebuilding Your Body

I finally reached a tipping point playing whack-a-mole with injuries here and there. I knew something was fundamentally wrong with my approach to fitness and injury prevention and my increasingly sedentary lifestyle. This book provides a clear and comprehensive overview of the most common causes of injury and the cellular biology of connective tissue healing (and how we can work with it to optimize healing and fortify our joints), along with a catalogue of movements and exercises together with a training routine that is easy to follow. I no longer have to frantically scrape the web for fragmented fitness information and can now turn to this book as a lifelong reference. It has fundamentally changed the way I think about my body.

When we are serious about the body response with movement - injury - return to exercise or just learning many and varied technical aspects of structure and form, this book has loads of photos and references that help explain the reasons behind the injuries and how to recover with confidence. Worth referring to over and over.

Ich habe eine umfassende Sport-Lektüre-Sammlung und dieses Buch zählt zu denen, von denen ich noch am meisten Neues lernen konnte. Den Ausführungen des Autors zufolge, habe ich vorher bereits das meiste richtig gemacht. Manche Dinge ist man sich aber nicht immer bewusst und sollte sich regelmäßig aktiv damit beschäftigen. Ich habe schon genug Menschen getroffen, die dieses Buch dringend lesen und einiges darin umsetzen sollten. Es ist tatsächlich auch eines der wenigen Bücher, die ich schon häufiger weiter empfohlen habe. Nicht jeder bräuchte ein Buchtipp für Kraftsport oder eine bestimmte Sportart - aber sehr viele Menschen haben irgendwelche körperlichen Beschwerden. Daher ist das Buch für eine breite Masse an Menschen geeignet. Sehr positiv bewerte ich auch die einfach gehaltene englische Sprache mit wenigen unnötigen Fachbegriffen. Daher lässt sich das Buch sehr flüssig lesen und gut verstehen.

Built from Broken completely transformed the way I think about fitness, pain, and recovery. Scott Hogan explains the science behind rebuilding your body in a way that’s easy to understand and apply. His approach focuses on smart training, not just harder workouts. This isn’t just a fitness book; it’s a manual for reclaiming your body and confidence. This book completely changed how I approach training. Scott Hogan breaks down how to build a body that’s not just strong, but sustainable for the long term. His insights into recovery, mobility, and muscle balance made me realize how much potential I was leaving on the table by ignoring the basics. I’ve been lifting and training for years, and this book still taught me things I’d never considered. The guidance feels practical, science-based, and surprisingly motivating. It’s a must-read for anyone who wants to train smarter, stay healthy, and keep performing at their best for years to come.
