🎥 Things I Would Never Do as a Physio (And What to Do Instead)
Because prevention > rehab every time.
❌ 1. Sit for 8 hours without moving
🟢 Instead: Set a timer every 45–60 minutes to stand, stretch, or take a quick walk. Your spine, hips, and brain will thank you.
⸻
❌ 2. Ignore shoulder pain for weeks
🟢 Instead: Address it early. Small aches can turn into chronic issues if left too long. Early physio = faster recovery.
⸻
❌ 3. Stretch only when I’m injured
🟢 Instead: Make mobility part of your weekly routine. Think of it as brushing your teeth — small, regular habits > big fix later.
⸻
❌ 4. Train hard without recovery
🟢 Instead: Recovery is training. Sleep, hydration, and rest days are part of performance — not a break from it.
⸻
❌ 5. Chase “cracks” or “clicks” as treatment
🟢 Instead: I focus on movement quality, strength, and long-term results — not short-term fixes.
