Can You Get Better By Doing Less?

Some are very shy about their feet.

When Was The Last Time You Felt Really Healthy?

The Florida State tree - cabbage palm. They look very healthy.

The day I quit working out will be the healthiest I’ll ever be for the rest of my life. There is no physical way to get or stay stronger, nor to have better (or maintained) cardiovascular abilities, without exercise. Read my lips. None.

Hey, Did I Mention All These Things Were Part Of It Too?

The podiatrist asked me to do a few other things to alleviate the foot pain:

  • Ice morning & night
  • Rest often (good luck)
  • Celebrex, 200mg daily
  • Stretch 20 minutes daily
  • Custom foot orthotics, daily
  • Voltaren gel 4x day, both feet
  • Wear nighttime foot splints (both feet) while sleeping, daily

Some for a decade, some for just a few years.

What keeps you going to do the hard work to make your life healthier and easier? Seriously, your answer rolls off your tongue, right?
