Stop when it hurts?

Needs a level of training

Increase your activity over time, but stop short of pain. If you start to feel pain after three miles of running, stop short of three. You will not increase your endurance by continuing the activity when you're in pain.
Return to previous levels only when you're free of pain and have full range of motion in the affected area. Give special attention to any recurrent injuries before they become chronic problems.
