I think one of the hardest things for me is that as I get older I seem to always be in pain. I hurt myself quite easily and that slows me down greatly. I find at a certain point of trying to take it easy so my body can repair it starts going in the other direction. What I mean is that I hurt from over doing it (maybe, who knows) but then I start hurting because I am being inactive. So, either way I hurt. I might as well hurt doing something that is beneficial to me than staying inactive until it hurts everytime I move. This babystep workout buddy group is perfect! I am starting to feel stronger already and can't wait for the next day. You guys are all awesome and I love being a part of this group. Btw, I am turning 65 this month and feel more like I am approaching 80 lol. I will never stop trying but sometimes it is so frustrating. Thanks for listening to my rant!

Its so tricky to balance pain management, but I came to a similar conclusion: I may as well be hurting from something good for me! Heat pads and tiger balm are my daily companions ❤️ I am so glad to have you with us and to see each other grow!

Question of the day: What advice would you give to someone afraid to start their own journey?

[@vonstervlog]

Randy says "Don't worry about how much you're putting in. Just Show Up." Von says: Finding a "why" is nice, but just get up and try it. Motivation comes from Doing. Don't wait, don't give all the power to your excuses, however valid they may be. The Obstacle is the Way!
