From Chris

There is a point in all of our lives when things stop feeling comfortable, and most of the time it does not show up in a big or obvious way. It rarely arrives as a dramatic moment where you clearly know you are being held back. More often it just looks like hesitation.

You did not hit your limit. You just found where it used to be.
