And yet we still have this pain and we're working out with the pain.

What are some common mistakes that myself and others that are like me are making?

I, for myself, you know, I get this sort of nagging pain.

I have one in my shoulder and I have a little bit like in the tendon of my forearm.

And it's not enough that it's like an injury where I can't work out.

But it's enough where I do feel more limited in my workouts.

And oftentimes I'll, you know, I work with a coach, as you know, she's amazing.

She's amazing.

But, you know, she'll say, okay, well, let's...

let's do a different movement today because you're feeling a little bit more pain if you're doing, you know, for example, like heavy deadlifts.

But, you know, for someone that has their nutrition pretty much dialed in for the most part and get enough sleep, you know, so like some of the pillars of health are there and yet you still have the pain.

Like where do you start to look?

Yeah.

Like first.

Like a physical fight?

So does the activation of the sympathetic nervous system play a role in that?

All right.

So when it comes to foam rollers, I mean, it's something that I've heard such mixed data and evidence.

And I say heard because I haven't really dive into the literature myself to look at what it says.

But you've got real world experience.
