bodies extra needs pressure suffering time treatment whatever
It is a lot of pressure, but there is pressure on all of us, and the thing is, you have to do whatever you have to do to get yourself back on the field. Sometimes, they don't have time to go and get treatment or they don't have time to do the little extra things to try and get their bodies where it needs to be. I say, 'That's your fault.' The trainers can only treat you if you are there, and if you don't let them know things are happening, you will be the one suffering in the end.
