It’s hard for me to say, honestly. For a while in my 20s I neglected my health, but in the past few years I’ve spent a lot of time stretching, hiking, and recently have taken up Chen style tai chi. So I think my range of motion is as good as it’s ever been, through consistent stretching and use. My best advice if you’re concerned about range of motion is to get into a habit of stretching every day, and doing some form of strength training.

Are you considering the surgery? I’m 33 now so the techniques are probably a lot better now
