    I have some athletes that have the same issue in water
    polo. The majority of my guys are tough as nails, but I do
    have some guys that are trying to say that they are hurt. I
    ask them if they can move the part that is injured, and they
    tell me they can. This is when I give them a little quiz.
    I ask them if they are injured or hurt. They usually tell
    me they are just hurt. That is when I let them know that if
    it hurts then you need to work through the pain. Hurt is a
    pain your body is telling you that you are working hard. An
    injury occurence is when you need to stop.
