In this YouTube video, David Brimacombe explains why many people struggling with post‑concussion syndrome (PCS) find their recovery habits repeatedly break down. He argues that the core problem isn’t a lack of motivation or a weak reason for recovery; rather, it’s the tendency to try to overhaul too much at once—essentially “biting off more than they can chew.” By attempting large, sweeping changes, individuals overwhelm their limited post‑injury capacity, leading to burnout and relapse. Brimacombe emphasizes the need for modest, incremental habit adjustments that align with the brain’s reduced tolerance after a concussion, and he outlines practical steps for scaling back expectations to sustain long‑term progress.
