@paninid@mastodon.world This is how far to the right the Democratic Party is now, even Republicans are contemplating switching parties. Today's Democratic Party is the Republican Party of the 1990s. Today's Republican Party is Die Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei. #USpol

Rather than thinking, aha, due to IBS U just lost a lot of muscle mass, well then it is only natural that U have back pain and locked hips. Because Ur muscles in Ur back and Ur legs and Ur whole body just got way shorter than they used to be.
Building muscles will increase movability.
Bigger muscles are longer.

in reply to EvolLove • • •My point being. If someone loose muscles and get skinnier that is what people see. Rarely anyone ever think about how the muscles also got shorter
Of course over time they might stretch. But again, if the muscle get taller, then it get bigger
Ergo a bigger muscle is not only stronger it is also long enough to enable full movement
But we don't see how short the muscles might be, we only see the width as the only volume

in reply to EvolLove • • •So anyone who is rather old or planing to become old one day should take notice
If U are physically weak when U get old, no matter how far U can walk, if U are not strong but weak, then U have a higher risk of a negative spiral
Where U get periods of pain so U have to lay down for says, sometimes more than a week. When that happens U will loose muscle mass, ergo Ur muscle will get shorter
So U get a little bit better but due to muscle mass U have problem moving and the pain comes back

Exactly.
I was in bad condition when I started this journey with just push ups.
But 2 things. first I had no idea how weak I had become. Second it was reall heavy the first weeks but soon it got easier and I was never expecting this. But after 1 year I broke the records of my youth in some compound moves.
Now I train all year around and my work feels less tiresome. I feel stronger, lighter and have more energy
And this is the best part, push ups only takes like 1 minute.
