Ohh, my aching back!

You don't know how out-of-shape you are until you spend an afternoon helping a neighbor doing pre-winter yard clean up. And I seem to be out of aspirin, tylenol, etc. Well, there's always the tequila, but, you know, work, so that's not an option for the moment. Sigh.

Count your blessings. I'm sitting in a car for the next seven hours.

This is why I go out of my way to not ever talk to my neighbors. They may think I'm a jerk but they can't use me. :thumbsup:

Stretch first; slow startup. When one remembers. Reach up. Reach down. Behind etc.

Hot shower or hot bath can help a lot.

You'll know whether you're out of shape 3 minutes into it. If you needed an entire afternoon to make that determination...then you came to the wrong conclusion.

Or playing rugby with two pre-teen grandchildren.

You really don't know you are out of shape when your 19 yo son and his friend start moving furniture and say, "we got this dad..." And then you see stuff zoom up and down the stairs. I guess I was young once.

Well at least you can be thankful that they were not teenagers because then it would have been worse.

One of the areas a lot of us men forget about and avoid stretching is the hips. Stiff hips and muscles around the hips becoming stiff, as we get older, can cause back issues. For me it turned out that my sciatica(giving me sleepless nights) was being caused by an overly stiff piriformis muscle(discovered only by extensive reading and then experimenting with different stretches) which now that I stretch and strengthen has pretty much got rid of my sciatica.
