@victorishappy2 This sucks!

Damn this espn plus app is trash. Trying to watch the Texas game and keeps saying playback error

@upahami Thanks! Recovery is going well.

@4abalancedyou hope you are recovering well from your shoulder procedure. If not come on,get up and kick Father Time. Best wishes.

Recovering from something like a shoulder replacement is in itself a balancing act. You want to return to some level of activity and you have to be mindful not to try too much too quick. #agingshouldntsuck #balancetraining #shoulderreplacementrecovery #afriendlynudge #abalancedyou

This is an exercise that’ll be in this week’s A Friendly Nudge, my weekly video newsletter on SubStack. It’s caleed a tandem balance and it’s a lot more challenging than I expected. #afriendlynudge #agingshouldntsuck #balancetraining #abalancedyou

@upahami Sleeping is what I worried about most since I used to sleep on my side or stomach. Sleeping on my back on a wedge with a sling on my arm has taken a little getting used to but not as much as I thought. Thanks!

@4abalancedyou Hope that your recovery is swift. Sleeping must be difficult so I hope you get plenty of rest. Loads and loads of positive vibes sent to you.

Joint replacement is definitely major surgery but I’m beyond pleased with what the recovery process has been like. I definitely wasn’t as prepared as I could have been but Jude has been a huge help. So glad I finally moved forward with this. #agingshouldntsuck #shoulderreplacementrecovery #afriendlynudge #tableslides

@GiuliaDC9 Thanks. I got tired of constantly complaining about my shoulder and figured out it was time to do something about it.

@4abalancedyou It’s so good to hear that you’re satisfied with the outcome of your surgery. Sorry I haven’t seen your posts in a while; I didn’t know you’d had joint replacement surgery. Wishing you a speedy recovery!

I take my arm out the sling when I do a physical therapy exercise called table slides but other than that if I’m up moving around or sleeping my arms the sling. Can’t wait to do sink squats again. #agingshouldntsuck #afriendlynudge #sinksquats

Nothing helps you appreciate the importance of strength and mobility like major surgery. Had my shoulder replaced about a week and a half ago and I’m feeling grateful for how my recovery is going. #agingshouldntsuck #afriendlynudge #mobility

I posted this video over 3 years ago on TikTok and it launched my daily exercise snacks. I hope things get worked out. I love the community that it helped me build. #agingshouldntsuck #exercisesnacks

I wanted to thank everyone for the kind words and get well wishes. It must be working because my new shoulder is incredibly well behaved. #agingshouldntsuck

Shoulder replacement is like everything else I’ve ever dreaded, my imagination conjures up something a lot more gnarly than the actual experience. The second day was brutal but every day since has gotten better. #agingshouldntsuck #shoulderreplacement #shoulderreplacementrecovery #afriendlynudge

@RavenZech2 Much better. The day after surgery was brutal but it’s gotten better every day since.

@4abalancedyou Ouch!! How’s recovery going?

Good morning weirdos. I’m very glad I cancelled my gym classes this morning. My poor legs after yesterday’s swim are killing me and I need some time in the studio. What’s everyone else up to today?

@HassayJohn Leaning forward loads your FHL. Straight up and down is also a great exercise

@4abalancedyou may i ask why you lean forward for this? i push up onto tip toes and down again while i'm brushing my teeth but going vertically. two mins every morning and every evening.

This is the FHL calf raise from Ben Patrick’s Knee Ability Zero book. You want to work up to 25. As my ankles got stronger and more functional my knees got happier.

I talked yesterday about the necessity of strong glutes and the fact that lots of sitting isn’t doing us any favors when it comes to glute strength. I’d shoot for a couple of sets of 10. But don’t worry if 5 is all you have, start there and increase as you get stronger.

I’m always a sucker for the various fitness test and this is one I saw recently for testing glute strength. Single leg glute bridges are great but tomorrow I’ll post regular glute bridges. #startwhereyouare #agingshouldntsuck #afriendlynudge

@ShuiYunjuan319 @R3UPG4M3R Looks delicious!

Sometimes I forget that someone may be seeing a particular video of mine without having seen the previous ones that I’ve posted. It’s critical that you start where you are and don’t try to do too much too soon. The beauty of exercise is that it doesn’t get easier but instead you get stronger. #startwhereyouare

@VickiUCF It’s a good one.

@4abalancedyou I like this one. Did it on Thursday.

This is a great exercise to help build core stability, it’s in today’s A Friendly Nudge and it’s called the Pallof Press. The band is trying to twist you sideways and you build core strength by resisting it. #afriendlynudge #agingshouldntsuck #startwhereyouare
