  • Take the time to rest that group of muscles. Focus on lower body or other exercises that don’t cause you pain or discomfort. The easiest way to have a chronic issue is by not letting it heal. You can always do light weight or body weight only once it starts to feel better to check on progress.

    Its better to take a week off than do long term damage. I can’t say what the issue is vecause I am not a Doctor and I’m not there in person, so take it with a grain of salt. You know your body and should make the call thats right for you.


  • In many states you have to present multiple forms of ID to get ID. Its a catch 22 in many places that disproportionately affects lower income people. If you lose your ID in Florida, depending on your residency status and whether the Tax Collector’s office is enforcing rules, you may have to present birth certificate or a Social Security Card. To get a copy of your Social Security Card, you have to have a valid photo ID. Birth certificates require a permanent residence, access to online payment (bank account), and internet access to the right websites.

    A lot of lower income people don’t have mortgages, drive, see medical professionals regularly, etc. Part of that is because of the barriers to easily getting a replacement ID that exist.

    I worked with these individuals for years, and the amount of burden that it put people under was immense. In just my location alone I helped hundreds of people each year navigate government systems to get ID and aid. Its laughable how hard it is for the people wbo need help to access the programs that are currently in place.





  • I think they probably meant in the larger community and in this one. Access to educational materials and services would go a long way in making it harder for things like this to happen. A big problem in America, especially conservative majority areas, is that lack of resources, information, and education makes it easier for political and economic interests to overshadow people’s well being. Look at the push for ‘right-to-work’, brexit, West Virginia and Kentucky in general. There are a lot of people who have restricted access to information and learning who make their decisions based on Fox news, Facebook, and worse.
