Most people do not like exercise. This may have something to do with the way we are hard-wired. Way back in history we had to work hard to find enough food to eat. It may be that our bodies are wired to rest whenever possible to conserve the calories from the food we did find. It isn’t hard to find food these days. You don’t even have to leave your house to get a hot meal delivered right to your door.
In this age of home delivery and fast food, we have to work hard against our natural inclinations. Granted, it is hard to exercise if you are in pain from a recent knee surgery or something similar. This doesn’t change the fact that most doctors recommend you get moving right away—even if you have a medical condition. In the next section, we will discuss a problem that often plagues mature adults.
Exercise and Arthritis
If you don’t have arthritis it is hard to understand the pain it puts people through. When you’re hurting, it takes everything you can do just to move normally. If you have arthritis in your hands, turning doorknobs can be a trial. If you have arthritis in your knees, one cold wind can leave you aching and limping. After a few flare-ups, the last thing you want to do is irritate your joints again.
