There is a point about “pain” versus discomfort that deserves to be made. If you sit on the floor in a straddle and try to do a Forward Bend, You will experience (a perhaps uncomfortable) pull somewhere. If you hop on your foot, you can hop on it until you really feel uncomfortable. This is a kind of discomfort that disappears as soon as you finish the exercise. This is not pain.

Pain persists.

Pain feels different. People in pain know the difference between real pain and discomfort. Beneficial exercise will bring temporary discomfort, but should never bring pain.
