My daughter purchased a fixer-upper in a great location, and we were excited about her homeownership experience. There was a challenge, however: Her apartment lease was due to expire in 30 days, and there was a lot to do, including painting. The fact that she was converting dark brown paneling to white walls only compounded the challenge.
Having swung many paintbrushes while working my way through college, I was up for the challenge, but with so much work to do, I knew I had to make the most of my time. I started on Friday morning and didn’t finish until Saturday afternoon. By the time I finished painting those walls, I had a considerable amount of muscle soreness from the bending, reaching, and positioning I had done. I realized that many of the movements I performed were similar to the exercises I give my patients in the gym—and what a workout they were.
