If you don't use it, you lose it. And a lot of us aren't really thinking about what have I actually actively lost from an activity standpoint? Is it jumping? Is it mass? Is it strength? All those variables that you spoke to. But I definitely see this a ton on the injury and pain side. Injury doesn't show up out of nowhere.

It has reasons why it shows up and it's compounded by emotional stress and all these other kind of multifactorial things. When our brain perceives threat, we feel pain. Absolutely. Sometimes that's a physical threat. Like I haven't jumped in a long time. I started jump roping. All of a sudden I wake up, my Achilles is sore.

That doesn't mean I ruptured my Achilles, but it does mean I was not prepared for that movement because I've been on the shelf for a long time. And so I think a lot of people with that investment strategy analogy is fantastic and they should really incorporate that is,

making sure they're accounting for all the buckets that their body needs to do, not just with what they want to do, but what we know people need. Demographics, Western society, age, all these things play a role to like, if you pull up the stats, a lot of people will have, oh, high risk for a low back or high risk for an ankle or whatever.

Yeah, right. And my private practice, I see this all the time. But what I always tell people to do is like, look at your kids. If you go to a coffee shop with your kids, I guarantee one of them will run and jump off a rock and like do a twist and land it. When was the last time one of us did that? Right.

And that's why they say maintaining play and always playing games and increasing that to where it's randomized games. you're actually reacting to things because there's the neuroplastic effects as well.

But just for the tissues, rehearsed load on the Achilles and the foot, if you go and get a job and you drive to work and you sit at your cubicle all day and you drive home and you didn't jump, that times five or 20 years is going to cause a lot of lack of capacity in your tissues that you don't want to learn the hard way.

Yeah, three-dimensional, short, long, quick, slow. Yeah, I mean, a lot of variables there.

For me, wrestling with my kids, which means getting down on the floor, having the flexibility, wrestling with my grandkids.

Yeah. That's big. Just like play, right?
