That's awesome!<br /><br />I do yoga and it does help and I even enjoy it. I do have to be careful about what poses I do. Most of the hip openers loosen things up too much and it's not pretty. I just need to be better about doing it more regularly. :)EventingSaddlebredStylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07610596082916022402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4318842770364105067.post-42233065343481820242016-07-11T12:37:05.701-05:002016-07-11T12:37:05.701-05:00I'm 6 feet too!

As a kid you bounce back so quickly that you don't think about the repeated stress on your body. Looking back now I was incredibly silly to think I could go to XC practice run anywhere from 3-10 miles go straight to a 2-3 hour basketball practice and then in the afternoon have another 1-2 hours of scrimmages 5 days a week and not have damage. At minimum it was 5 hours of hard exercise per day.<br /><br />It is crazy how sensitive Stinker is. But it is also really good for me because I can't slack off with my hips so I haven't had much back pain either. He keeps me way more honest than I do on my own. :)EventingSaddlebredStylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07610596082916022402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4318842770364105067.post-63277517083687449292016-07-11T08:55:13.286-05:002016-07-11T08:55:13.286-05:00Wow that is terrible that you have structural dama...Wow that is terrible that you have structural damage from youth sports! No bueno. When you're young, you can't be expected to know when enough is enough, or the effects it might have on your body when you get older.<br /><br />That is interesting that Stinker is effected by your tight hips - but it makes sense. Good for you for catching it!Shaunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17348396578251983461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4318842770364105067.post-1409914564536346352016-07-11T08:51:12.075-05:002016-07-11T08:51:12.075-05:00That they do.

I...That they do. He is too smart for me somedays...<br />I was lucky to have some good running coaches (XC and track). They never hounded me for having slow days when my ankles were hurting (I had long term pain and wasn't trying to run on a sprain). And they actually taught me how to train properly, rather than the do more faster and better and push through at all costs attitude my basketball coach had. But yes there are so many coaches that don't have a clue or don't care and it's bad.

Teenage sports coaches need to get their acts together. An ex from high school was 6'1 and like 140lbs, and his XC running coach wanted him to weigh 125lbs and hounded him for it too.
