So I have been going to physical therapy for a sports injury. All three times I have been this week every single patient in there was being treated for a SPORTS INJURY.

Not old people who had fallen and could not get up.

SPORTS INJURIES. I am 36 and I have been the oldest one in there. The other patients were high school and college athletes. When I was in HS and college...I was NOT an athlete, unless funneling beer is now considered a sport! If I pushed myself then like I do now...I would probably be crippled by now.

Why is it that the doctors tell us to exercise for our health, but then we get injuries b/c we exercise. Well i told my PT that I thought it was a conspiracy...it was all to suck our pockets dry!! He laughed...not sure I was kidding!!:tongue:

Back to PT tomorrow though so he can fix what ails me so that I can torture myself some more!!:laugh:

    I have a few friends who just push themselves too hard and have to keep going back to physical therapy. There is a limit and some people just don't know their own, and obviously there are accidents too but... I have far too many friends who just screwed up thing after thing because they never rested!
