January: “I’m going to start running.”
February: “I’m basically an athlete.”
Now: “Rach… where’s that heat pack?” 😅
So my husband has been lacing up his joggers since January, feeling very smug (and honestly, good on him).
But in the last couple of weeks … the ni**les have started appearing.
Not the dramatic, “I’ve broken in half” kind.
The quiet little whispers from old tight spots, dodgy ankles, grumpy hips, and that one shoulder that’s probably been side-eyeing him since 2014.
And here’s the thing about ni**les…
They’re often not “new”.
They’re just finally getting loud enough to be noticed.
So now we’re at the crossroads:
Will he throw the runners in the back of the ute and declare running “bad is for your joints anyway”…
Or will he book the appointments, sort the load, build the strength, and keep moving?
Place your bets, friends. 😉
If you’ve got your own ni**le that’s getting bigger the more you try to do the right thing (walk, run, gym, netball, life)…
let’s not wait until it turns into a full-blown “I can’t do this anymore” situation.
Book in with our physios and let’s get you moving well - not just moving more.
