If repetition creates habits and anything can be patterned Would it not be worth taking a look at what it is that you're repeating And ask yourself the question of whether it's worth the effort? Think about it. If you're getting 15 reps in of a squat variety that's hurting your knees Hell, if you're a bootcamp type and getting 73 reps in of a squat variety that's hurting your knees And you're repeating that 3x time a week, or even doing it every day That's a lot of repetition that's hurting your knees. SO Which would be better for you? Doing hundreds, if not thousands, of repetitions that are hurting your knees (sometimes for YEARS at a time) for the sake of 'doing what's good for you and getting your squats in' OR Doing something that makes your knees feel better, stronger, and more capable. (Which may actually still be doing squats, but slightly differently) Am I making sense here? Or is this just late night ramblings?

It's interesting what habits stay and which ones go when sickness sweeps in. I find it's also a great time to reflect on which habits are helping me feel better and which ones are keeping me sick. Sunshine, walking, broth, and sleep have been big for me coming back. What are your go-to feel good habits when you get sick?

Say hello, tell us your name and why you joined this group

It's all fine and dandy to have me sit at my computer and type into the ether, but I'd rather be saying stuff you actually want to hear. So, that leads me to some questions: 1. What's some stuff you really want to be talking about in here? 2. If I were to create a course (or courses) what would you want to learn about? 3. Would you rather have this be a place where you can learn stuff or an environment in which you hear about others stories and feel welcome to share your own? Let me know
