Went to an orthopedic doc for an achy leg/back/knee.
Gave me the usual prescription: strengthen some core muscles, physical therapy, anti inflammatory meds for a couple weeks, and should be good to go.
Also, however, he prescribed that I read the book Deskbound, by Kelly Starrett.
Reading that book will definitely give you an incentive to not sit for long periods of time.
- austinjp 9y agoWeasel words perhaps, but Kelly Starrett really divides physical therapist communities. Some love him, some hate him. Personally I think he's often "right for the wrong reasons". But if his approach gets you feeling better, that's what's important. Ditto workouts for "core muscles".
- gxs 9y agoInteresting, thanks for the info I’ll check it out.
- irremediable 9y agoIs there any readable book that's "right for the right reasons"? I'm interested in learning more.
