Okay. So let's go back to Jill for a minute. So we have this diagnosis, which is, okay, we've sort of figured out why your knee is hurting. We now have a radiographic diagnosis that completely comports with what's being seen on the physical exam and symptoms. These are stubborn injuries. What was the next step?

I should know this because I live with her, but I don't remember exactly how long she actually had to stop running. I know that it was right after the first and second PRP injections, but does eight weeks sound about right? Yeah.

Right. When you're training for an event that's 30 years from now, you don't have to take shortcuts.

All right, so let's pick another type of client that you'd see at 10 Squared, which is maybe somebody who comes in who doesn't have a great training history. They've never really been an athlete. But the thesis really resonates. They sort of go, you know what? I get it.

I feel fine now, even though I'm not particularly athletic and I'm not training a lot, but I'm young enough that it hasn't caught up with me yet. I'm in my 40s or whatever. But I now accept that when I do my test, because those people don't typically do very well on the assessment, you can't hide from not having done the work. So how do you think about...

where to start when there is so much work to do. So you talked earlier about this is on the second floor, this is on the first floor, this is on the penthouse, this is in the basement. We're going to focus on the basement. Well, what do you do when everything is first floor basement? Number one, we got to build the habit.

And if you were to handicap that, how many years away would he have been from something like that being quite likely? Is this something that's going to happen before he was 60?

Is that difficult to communicate to clients because do they ever feel like, hey, I'm not doing enough?

That's a bummer. Yeah, this idea about foot reactivity is so important. I've been much more attentive to it in the past couple of years, and I've noticed the number of times when I've lost my footing and regained it. So I've never had a fall. It's never resulted in anything because it's been caught.

But I keep thinking to myself, this is the type of slip that can be devastating because these are really type two fibers that are doing it. And the type two fibers atrophying as we age are the types of jumping things that we do sufficient to preserve it.
