Yes! So true.It’s a fine line between doing too much and not enough.
If you experience increased swelling or pain after activity, or your knee feels stiffer, you are likely overdoing it.
You want to remain comfortably mobile and overdoing it during the day can lead to nighttime discomfort and a sleepless night.
On the other hand, if you're not active enough your muscles may remain weak, rather than strengthen, and you will tire more easily if not "slowly" working on endurance. Slowly increase intensity and duration, a little discomfort is okay, but not pain. Rest is important, balanced with activity.
Consistent gradual progress will get you there, Oldped!
