We have been taught that pain should be our guide - any discomfort means that we need to cut back.
The truth?
Pain is a poor guide.
That doesn't mean we should rush out and put ourselves in pain. It means that sometimes pain is present - not because of tissue damage - but because of inflammation. In these instances, movement helps to get the inflammation out.
Understanding this difference isn't always easy, but it is an important part of establishing optimal health.
