My personal Markers Goal

I have been thinking about this ever since I went to the physio the other week. I just happened to be chatting to my physio as I had deep tissue massage in my hamstrings (ouch, got to think of something other than the pain 😀) and I mentioned my third goal, usually when I mention goals he gives me little bits of advice to help me get there, this time he didn’t, he seemed concerned.

In the past I have had two frozen shoulders right and left. Would of been easier if they had been the same one 😀. He says we have been lucky and got 95-97% of movement back in the shoulders but without 100% he doesn’t think I could do 20 unassisted pull ups and would wonder if I could do one. He said by all means keep training and building up as it is good for my shoulders but don’t be too disappointed if I can’t do them.

So for the last few days I have had my stubborn head on thinking, I will show you! But that really isn’t the right attitude, here is someone doing their best to keep me safe. 🙄, so why would I not listen.

I will continue to build my shoulder muscle strength up and see how far I can go but I need to have a good think about my long term goal. Goal 3. 🤔.

Have a great weekend everyone.

It’s exactly that stubborn head that got me looking at marathon 😂

Sounds like a sensible decision is coming... a new goal 3 and maybe the original comes back at some point in the future? We will all need a goal 4 eventually!

I know, at my age I should go to the sensible decision first, 😂. But I like the thought of a goal 4 out there in the ether 😀.

Sensible plan. No point in visiting the IC if it can be avoided x

I come round eventually but my brain was fighting it for a bit there 😀.

Best to listen to the experts, although sometimes different experts have different opinions - which is confusing!

I’m sure some experts would say I shouldn’t run but I always find a way to keep going 😀. If I work at a new goal and keep working at getting stronger, you never know 😀.

Not what you're looking for?
