I am really struggling with my back at minute. I've had issues for 15 years but last few months it's got worse. I do Pilates,yoga, walking . I'm under physio and do exercises everyday. I'm also struggling with peri menopause and have aches, fatigue, headaches, weight gain, insomnia. This is hindering my ability to exercise, previously in addition to above I did weights, swimming and Zumba. But currently I'm struggling so much with energy levels and back pain.
Dh keeps getting frustrated as my back will lock and I struggle to move , I also can't do any heavy lifting. So some tasks are falling to him. He keeps lecturing me that I need to do more and maybe include cardio. He is 8 years younger than me and very into fitness so considers himself an expert. I keep explaining that what works for a man in his late thirties isn't necessarily best for a woman in her mid forties.
Dh had a go at me tonight for not listening and seems to have a bee in his bonnet that he's right. I got cross and told him to stop lecturing me as it's not helpful.
Am I right to ignore his lectures and continue to follow physio recommendations even if it's taking time to fix
