Ah it’s fun getting older isn’t it? Lol.
One of the things we’ve been enjoying is some cool health tech that’s been coming out the last few years. I recently got one of these bio bands and really love it!

The two big things that I’ve done the last 2 months is add this bio band to my body all day every day except when I’m showering, and nearly complete elimination of gluten from my diet. I fucked up my wrist many years ago skateboarding and I haven’t been able to do push ups with my right hand because of it. I would do push ups on my fists instead of flat palms.
Just last week, no joke, I did push ups 3 days last week with my palms! I for sure think it’s because of the wristband. I’m not constantly thinking about it or I don’t think I’m falling victim to the placebo effect but I was doing home workouts and my wrist felt better doing my normal fist push ups which was weird so I figured screw it how does it feel flat? I was able to do 5 sets of 12 push-ups and was so excited! I’m not trying to overdo it so I don’t mess it up but that was great.
All that to say there’s lots of things out there that can help with your injuries especially the elbow ones.
I do know the struggle of the junk food cycle! I don’t eat a lot of junk but sometimes I fall victim at night when I’m done cleaning the house and end up snacking which sucks lol. Hope you can get back on the wagon for food!
