It’s not always about your body being less capable. Your response to physical activity isn’t just about your physical readiness — it’s influenced by your whole life.

When you’ve had poor sleep, high stress, or you’re not eating well, your body becomes more sensitive. That workout that usually feels fine might suddenly feel like too much. That twinge you normally ignore now feels like a full-blown issue.

Pain is complex. Your brain and body are responding to everything — not just your training load. On harder weeks, scale back slightly or switch to lighter movement. Give your system space to adapt.

Exercise generally improves sleep. However, very intense workouts too close to bedtime may increase alertness or body temperature, making it harder to fall asleep. Moderate-intensity activity earlier in the day appears to be best. Individual responses vary, so it’s worth tracking your own sleep if you train late.

Let's paint a scenario, you're walking or sitting and suddenly get a sharp pain that goes away right after. How do you react?

Let’s face it: stress is part of life. Work, family, responsibilities—it all adds up.

You’re also going to encounter pain from time to time. Sharp knee twinges, random back stabs, stiff muscles—that’s part of being human. These don’t always mean damage.

What matters most is how you respond:

Do you panic and stop moving completely?

Or do you adapt and stay active in ways that feel manageable?

Sometimes a small step back is what helps you move forward in the long run.

Pain isn’t always a signal of injury. It’s a signal to pay attention—and adjust, not avoid.

Going to bed and waking up at the same time every day trains your circadian rhythm. This consistency improves sleep quality, reduces sleep latency (time it takes to fall asleep), and supports better alertness and energy during the day.

You’ve probably been told you have pain because of your “bad” posture,
because you sit too much or because of some asymmetry in your structure.
These might make sense if you view the human body as something as simple as a car or a bridge. Over time that car can wear down and that wearing down can be increased if there are alignment problems.
But the body is more of an ecosystem instead of a car. Sitting and your posture has consistently been shown to be poorly linked with pain. Yes, sometimes when we sit for a long period our backs can ache and we have to move.
But there isn’t one perfect posture that will let you sit without pain. You
might think that slouching forward is bad, or having a shoulder lower than
the other is bad. But these things are normal. People have them and
don’t have pain. When we research these ideas they are poorly related to
pain. Remeber a Key Message: We are built to move. We are built to adapt.

Insomnia is a major issue that affects around 30% of adults worldwide. Sleep plays a vital role in memory, immune function, hormone regulation, pain sensitivity, emotional processing, and physical performance. Inadequate sleep can impair all of these systems, and chronic sleep issues have been associated with a variety of negative health outcomes.

Sleep is protective. Sleep helps us heal and helps us recover. Sleep is a desensitizer. It builds our tolerance to all of the things that can sensitize us. Lack of sleep (less than 7 hours
for some) or interrupted sleep can sensitize you. So maybe your pain should be 1/10 but consistently missing out on sleep amplifies that pain to 4/10.

Look around at your friends with no pain. They are all wonky. Everyone has asymmetries. Scoliosis, a bending of the spine, is not predicative of greater low back pain. Draw a line down the middle of your face. You will see you are naturally asymmetrical. Give yourself permission to not worry and stress about these things. Things like scoliosis, kyphosis, differences in leg length, flat feet, knock knees, wide hips, altered shoulder blade positions have all been suggested to be horrible for pain. But a lot of the time these are normal variations we see in people. Pain is not that simple and there is virtually no evidence
to suggest that these little differences are a massive problem. Did you know that the first man to lift more than 5 times his body weight had a MASSIVE scoliosis? Or that Olympic swimmers have the same condition. Or that most of the Marathon World Record Holders
had flat feet. Don’t let these things drift your focus.

You can track your sleep using wearables, apps, or a basic journal. Note things like:
Bedtime and wake time

Number of night awakenings

Energy and focus levels the next day

Tracking helps you understand what routines help or harm your sleep quality

If it hurts when you sit and you feel better when you move then you should move. You should get up and walk around. You should also slouch if that feels better. Or lean back more if that feels better. There is no one posture that is best. You want freedom of
movement and lots of different options. Don’t get caught up in ideal ways to move or stand. There aren’t any. We were built to have a huge amount of options on how to move. Find the ones that feel good for you. You also want to consider the possibility that your pain
has nothing to do with your sitting. Look at all the possible contributors to your pain!

Sleep deprivation alters hormones that control hunger and appetite, often increasing cravings for high-calorie, processed foods. Poor sleep can also reduce motivation to exercise and make it harder to maintain a calorie balance. Consistently good sleep supports better decision-making and healthier food choices, which can support fat loss and muscle retention.
