I’ve been encountering the same wake-up call lately: I must take care of my body before it starts hurting. After reading Aldric Chen’s piece on how three different parts of his body used to hurt and also staying up to date on Yan Huang’s 3-minute newsletter focussed on body movement, the topic of movement has been top of mind.

I’d stopped working out as a teenager because it had been too unhealthily associated with being thin at all costs.
