Well, if you go from sedentary to serious exercise, of course you’re going to hurt!! Once you heal, you need to make movement a daily priority. Don’t wait for your holiday, or you’re actually damaging yourself instead of helping yourself.

I bet if you did some form of daily movement, a year from now you’d be singing a different story (after your next holiday).

Yoga, stretching, calisthenics, and bodyweight exercises, for starters.
