Recent renaming of PCOS to PMOS, finally highlights the root cause of this syndrome, metabolic dysfunction.
In my line of work, many tendon and joint issues are the initial presentation of metabolic dysfunction, although when treating the pain, the underlying cause is rarely addressed, or even discussed.
Often, musculoskeletal problems drive people to the doctor, because they cause functional, life-disrupting issues.
By the time that has manifested, the metabolic dysfunction has been present for a significant time.

Prescriptions are often ineffective if they’re not specific or personalized. They need to be monitored and adjusted over time.
Exercise is no different.
Physicians may not have the time or ability to do this but should be a point person for referring to people who can. And working with those people to monitor results.
Find your people.

Working out is more than cardio. Functional movements are the basis of every day life. Training these movements allows you access to choices in your life, reducing limitations from pain, weakness, and mobility. When was the last time you got your butt below your knees?

Happy Easter everyone!

Stop. Collaborate. And listen.
Musculoskeletal care is a team sport. Know what you know. Know what you don’t know. Find like-minded people that you trust. Work as a team. Everyone wins.

Word to your mother.
Proverbs 31 describes the ideal virtuous woman. She speaks with wisdom. She honors her family. She works hard. Her arms are strong. She is fearless.
The kind of woman I strive to be.
“She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks” -Proverbs 31:17

Springing into action requires springs, as demonstrated here by 46-year-old Chief Aaron Edwards👮♂️
Vertical jumping ability declines significantly with age due to reductions in muscle mass, power output, and neuromuscular control, UNLESS you train.
Especially important for those in law enforcement (a population with unfortunately high rates of obesity)
So keep jumping, it may literallly save your life or someone else’s.
