exercise

Hey Team, I'm grateful and blessed to say I'm about 90-95% better. I have some up and down moments, but I go to work full-time and exercise without needing to hold back. I mention this because the questions I'm going to ask is not in order to heal, but to have a better understanding of what...

It's been some time since I posted on here and things have been going pretty well overall. I've had relapses but have overcome them fairly well in spite of a few wobbles but now I feel I'm at a bit of a crossroads. Although I have been fairly pain free, beyond a good walk everyday, I have not...

Hey! I have had AMAZING success healing years of Chronic arm pain and other issues through journaling and reflecting. I bruised, possibly cracked a rib in March. It took some time to heal and I got back to the gym recently. I was lifting weights and working out with really no restraints but...

Hi! I started doing yoga 2 months ago in order to keep my body active. I thought it would be good , low-impact exercise. It is even included in the (very short) list my rheumathologist suggested me to try. I have a small, skinny, flexible body. I can stretch a lot and do most postures, and I...

Over a period of many years, I will make strides in improving myself physically, only to be set back significantly. I am wondering if anyone has any guidelines regarding exercise. I seem to suffer two types of problems. One is pain that comes on gradually through the course of exercise, or...

Hi everyone, the last weeks were quite good but also very stressful. I ended my relationship, had job interviews and am finishing my master degree these days. It's interesting that I recognized the stress and the tension and was aware of it but the pain did not increase. Only my shoulder pain...

Worked on Day 3 and day 4 yesterday. Pain seems to be less relentless! As far as excercise, I have reached a point that folding and putting away a light load of laundry is an adventure in pain for me. If I could get to a point of doing simple housework, I would dance in the streets! Since the...

I am curious if anyone has the same response to exercise that I do. I could be in quite a bit of pain prior to starting my workout, but once I get about 5 minutes into my cardio, the pain reduces or temporarily disappears. I feel great for a while after I finish my cardio & strength training...

I have TMS, which manifests mostly as upper back, shoulder and neck pain. ANY exercise of my upper body and I have muscle pain for DAYS after and my mind becomes fixated on the pain with OCD like attention. I vacuumed my apartment and did some cleaning the other day and had soreness for a week...

Quick question for everyone here; after a ridiculous amount of searching and treatments I've finally understood TMS to it's fullest extent. I had approached it entirely wrong in the past and plan to correct that error and really have at it this time around, but one thing is holding me back. TMS...

From reading Sarno's book and from reading things on this forum alot of people who have suffered from TMS have had a 'fear' of exercising. I've never really felt this 'fear' about exercise, ive always loved to exercised but just continued through the pain, it usually felt better at the time. I...
