Adam Sandler told the speaker he regretted not stretching enough in his life. The speaker started hyperbolic stretching, which combines a stretch with an intense muscle contraction, and noticed more energy and less pain. Convert regret into action, not an excuse.
There's an article I read a few years ago. It was about Adam Sandler, you know, the waterboy, the comedian. And they asked him, does he have any regrets? And I remember him specifically saying he regrets not stretching more as a kid or in his life or now. And I empathize with it. I didn't stretch much unless I had to in gym class or for sports or something, but never otherwise. And then it hit me that a regret becomes mired, that we start replicating. It's actually a justification to continue the behavior. If we regret, it should be a decree for change. That was my awakening. And I committed to start stretching. Well, now I do it with regularity. And I'm actually taking even further. I just started hyperbolic stretching. Have you heard of this? It's where you, you do the stretch and then you give it an intensity, like a hold where you actually contract your muscles and then relax to further the stretch. It feels good. It's increased my energy. It's decreased the discomfort in my body. I could have stuck with the regret, "I should have stretched more in my life," and I would have simply continued it. Let's make our regrets decrees. And I don't care if you're 48, if you're 84, I don't care what age you are, make that regret a decree for change starting today. You'll have better outcomes.
