Movement decisions should consider the whole person 🏃♂️
Sometimes rest is appropriate.
Sometimes gradual movement is supportive.
And sometimes regular movement is an important part of maintaining and building capacity.
The goal is not to ignore your body or automatically avoid movement. 🤽♀️
The goal is to understand your body, consider the bigger picture, and make informed choices about movement.
