Listen "How much do you need to exercise to be cured of your pain?"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of the Upright Health Podcast, we’re digging into a question that comes up all the time:
“How long do I have to keep doing exercise to be cured of my pain?”
If you’re dealing with hip pain, back pain, shoulder pain—or really any kind of chronic pain—and you’re using exercise as your path to healing, it’s only natural to wonder when the finish line is coming. We’ve all hoped that maybe there’s just a set number of exercises or a magical plan that makes the pain disappear forever.
In this episode, we explore why that hope is understandable—but ultimately misleading. You’ll learn how to shift your mindset, understand what pain is really telling you, and build a healthier, more realistic relationship with your body.
🔑 What You’ll Learn:
Why the idea of “curing” pain can be misleading
How your body is like a bank account (and what that means for your exercise habits)
Why pain is more like hunger than a disease
How ignoring early warning signs leads to more serious setbacks
The dangers of chasing surgical “fixes” before exploring movement-based solutions
Why balancing strength, flexibility, and endurance matters for long-term health
How to build a sustainable exercise practice that keeps your body happy
