Don’t like this getting old

This getting old is not what I signed up for. Hands are killing me today and the same with my feet. This cold and damp weather can do one every day the pain gets worse

Yeah even at 50, I get some stup*d aches and pains that I never have before. Like my right arm - if I move it certain ways it hurts like h3ll.

@Snuffy1957 I do not normally go to doctors because they often just say - lose weight, quit smoking, type 2 diabetes.

I do not know if you know what "parade rest" is, it's a military position, but I cannot do that with my right arm. When I try, it feels like a pulled muscle, been going on for about three months now even though I do not abuse my shoulders or anything.

@CestManan
Mine felt like my arm was being slowly pulled off..
I hope you get feeling better

My feef hurt too. My calf muscels and Achilles tendons are really short. I made a device I put my foot in for about 49 minutes that pushes my foot back. It has a couple threaded rods on it and a flat plate my foot goes on. I pull back on the plate and tighten the rods to hold the position. It seems to be helping. I've been walking around without much pain.

@Houdini getting me down too. If you cant squat flat footed your calf muscels and tendons are too tight. This could be a part of the problem as well. [media=https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=NE0GqcRb9f8&pp=ygUbYXRobGVhbiB4IHBsYW50YXIgZmFzY2lpdGlz]

@Houdini Here's the device I built. It took a while with a wire welder and a few bolts but it really wasn't that hard. It's the length of the lower leg from heel to back of the knee. I don't know if this actually exists as a medical device or not or what it costs if it does.

@HobNoblin looks a little scary lol. But if it works for you then it’s a good thing

Cold weather definitely makes me stiff and sore. I dread next week's cold snap. I'll have to do an extra set of exercises just to loosen up.

Its not the age, its the mileage.
I miss my 18-25 year old body.
Yeah i heard about that (weather effects on joints)

Still better than the alternative, mostly.
