Just realized our book club's talk on a runner's memoir turned into a fitness feud

We read a book about an athlete's injury recovery, and the chat quickly shifted to everyone's own workout views. One person got quiet when others praised strict training, showing how touchy these topics can be. It left me thinking about how books spark personal debates.

What made the quiet person shut down about strict training?

I've found that strict training just makes quiet people shut down.

That strict training thing is spot on. See it everywhere, like in school when teachers are too harsh. Quiet kids just stop raising their hands. Same in offices with tough bosses, people who are less outgoing don't speak up in meetings.
