Ok, that might be a little strong, but not by too much. Recovering from an injury here, a state of affairs I’m all too familiar with.

Resting injuries is a therapeutic part of the process, yet paradoxically, movement of the affected area is also critical. As soon as possible. This is to maintain flexibility, increase blood flow, and prevent scar tissue.

The process is not intuitive, even for people experienced with exercise. Re-injury in this phase is all too common with fit individuals.

Time for PT. It’s important to acknowledge one’s limitations.

Not exercising is not an option.
