Do you remember your pt diagnosis? Have access to your pt office files?

Among rock climbers, pulling muscles (elbow bending) can over- develop compared to pushing muscles, leading to imbalance and elbow pain. IME, pushups are good warmup cross-training. Working, also, often involves more pulling than pushing.

Are you balanced between extensor and flexor groups? Push-ups help some elbow pain.

Can you go back to your pt exercises?

A little tape goes a long way. 3 wraps.

The top/ back side of my thumbs have been sore at times. I try to be careful to use a technique that doesn't use my thumbs when pulling throw lines, which I do a fair bit. Ropes, as well. I don't pinch firewood between fingers and thumbs. I put two or more pieces in a stack and scoop beneath...

I've been having some thumb pain. Voltaren/ generic equivalent is good stuff. Just a little where it hurts. Don't let your pets ingest it (arthritic hands petting cats. Etc) Three revolutions if cloth/ athletic tape ( half width) supports the thumb tendons at the wrist. Stretching (need to...

Relative humidity is usually reported, at least in the US. Absolute humidity is not. Both are low in subzero temps. Water vapor freezes to the ground and objects, so is removed from the air. You lose water from your moist lungs to dry air in and moister air out. Avoiding sweating is ideal. Keeps...

Guys are too tough for their own good, too often. Dehydration leads to being a DIChead, disoriented (spacey, where are my gloves/ glasses? what did I come to the truck for?), Irritable, and Combative (if you're looking for an argument, tell a dehydrated person that they are dehydrated)...

Drinking enough water would help everyone.

My mini-loader and wraptor have made for less injuries, and an easier time making money when having injuries, for sure.

Vacations are good for stress, and a mental re-set.

My campsite will be shaping up. I'm reworking a spot little by little, if you can handle... I've got canopy-raising the foreground spruce in mind, and 5 yards of mulch loaded to spread near the camp spot down the hill. I'm thinking of making an adirondak shelter for sleeping, and wildlife...

Seattle and PDX airports are close. Mount Rainier and Olympic NP are short drives. I'm at the base of the Olympic peninsula. The ocean is one hour. Surfing 2.5 hours. I have a guest room and second bathroom.

I used to be worried about failures during negative- rigging. Just make sure your rope is the weakest link in the system, and well stronger than the tree. Tie into a tall tree in the woods, and see how high you can climb into a strong species top. I stood in small small wood at the top of...

Hop on a plane for a few days and come out. We've got some skill-building trees out here. You mentioned the NW as a place to consider moving. Come check it out.

Denver, it can be easy to overthink a big or tricky job. The more experience you build, the more comfortable you will become, and the more self-confidence in your problem-solving will grow. Keep it simple, as much as possible. Think about the least fatiguing way. Take ample mental breaks...

Across our collective experience, we have a lot knowledge about injuries and treatments. Share your experiences. I recently learned that tumeric capsules are readily available as an antiinflammatory. Stretching is important, especially forearm muscle... the more your fingers are curled at...
