This showed up in my daily feed today at the most opportune time!
I am 64 ( How'd Did That Happen!) and active carver 4x a week and do upper body weight training 3x a week and the wife and I go out XC skiing once a week for 2-5 mile ventures. Spring,summer, fall I ride a road bike an average of 150-250 miles a week.
Some history of cause and effect: In a life long, long ago I was a HS and College wrestler and a "On the mat" wrestling coach for 20 years, so I'd say my hips and shoulders are majoritively Toast now and my flexibility is comparable to a Two x Four!! So of course I've been having increasing hip and knee pain/tightness and recently It's becoming difficult getting up out of chairs, sofas, toilet, etc.....
Well I'm going to do something about it! I know - Duh! - Try not to judge me please -
So I'm publicly committing to doing these stretches every morning for the next 30 days! So I started today and they all felt great but the first exercise was difficult for me to do without some support for balance and to get back to standing! Omg! Pitiful !! So it can only get better.....right? Wish me luck!!
