What I'm Reading This Week #33
Good morning to you! Friday is finally here and that's a good reason to take a hooky day. You know, for mental health reasons. 😁 Remember when it felt like you had to give an actual excuse when you wanted to call in back in the day? Then if you said you were sick and you really just wanted to go to lunch, a movie and maybe hit the grocery store on the way home, you had to pray you didn't run into anyone from work to bust you, like it was illegal or something. 🙄 I guess that's something that's changed for the better is not having to lie about why you're out. The workouts this week have been absolutely kicking our butts! We thought the band workout was hard then I was like "we should do Powerstrike to see where we are". Remember that dream sequence in Dumb and Dumber where Lloyd puts the dude's heart in a doggie bag, folds it up and hands it to the guy? It was like Powerstrike doing that with our asses. Then the followi...
Nothing worse than a shoulder or neck injury (I just suffered both recently from sleeping funny.) I adjusted my workout for almost a week to accommodate my aches and pains. It was interesting; that was the week I found new muscles that hadn't been worked while I was doing a yoga workout.
ReplyDeleteAs far as WATP, I watch that one on my laptop. The laptop is on my desk with a television one level up from there. I turn on the TV and watch the news and I turn down the computer. It's actually a pretty good workout when she's not talking!!
I think keeping off it while you sleep and taking it easy is going to be the key to healing up over the next few days or however long it takes.
ReplyDeleteDepends on the injury I guess. When I sprained my ankle a while back I pretty much stopped everything. I should've done some chair based exercises, but that's hindsight for ya. When I've had other injuries I've just modified.
ReplyDeleteGot all caught up on your blogs...I will not work on the area I'm injured at all. I will find something else to do, but I'm too old to mess with my knees and shoulders (my usual areas of injury) and don't want to make it worse. The only exception is my hips, because the dr and pt has assured me that exercising over arthritis pain won't hurt anything, so I push through that one.
ReplyDeleteIf injured, I find something else to do if it is at all possible. I see it as just a suggestion to work on something else for a while.
ReplyDeleteI hope your shoulder feels better soon!!! I know your pain with the lovely #2. Ugh, the worst. :(
