Do any long term strippers here, most likely older or retired I suppose, have arthritis? It's something I've been growing more worried about with age. It used to be that when I danced I would feel like crap the next morning. Now when I dance I feel like crap for almost a week.
I've always known that stripping isn't good for the joints, but the moment weighed more heavily than the future. Well the future is here and now when I feel achy and joint pain I think omg, is this arthritis?
I haven't danced full time for 10 years. I've always exercised, practiced yoga, eaten healthy. I've stripped on a part time basis and always stretched beforehand. I've always done the "right thing" in terms of taking care of myself and it shows. I just want to dance 1.5 more years, but even though I look the part I worry about the physical toll it might ultimately be taking. Just rambling with achy fear I guess....*sigh*.
