You Recover Faster When You Are Young
Sprained my right knee while swimming in 2020
That's what I get for not warming up...
It was one of those knee sprains that didn't heal properly on its own.
My doctor said, "Wait a couple of months, and see if it heals first."
It didn't.
He referred me to a physical therapist who scheduled me for a 12-week treatment.
I was 90% recovered in 3 weeks.
The physical therapist said, "Wow I can't believe you recovered so quickly! It must be good to be young."
She told me I didn't have to come in for the rest of the treatment and gave me a set of exercises to practice at home.
A lot of my friends between the age of 22 - 30 complain about how old they've gotten.
I'm still feeling quite young, and I'm definitely going to take more advantage of that fact.
Takeaways:
If you are older than 25, stretch and warm-up before you exercise.
If you are younger than 30, take BIGGER risks because you'll recover more quickly if things don't work.
