Notes: Well you know how my elbows been bothering me? Ya another injury sent my way...After todays open workout my elbow felt I just threw a 20 inning baseball game. It isnt a terrible pain to wear I can't stand its a dull pain but its there and it hurts and it makes my elbow feel weak. Now I am forced to take time off to make sure I do not further injure it. I am not a happy camper about this one. This means no more anything that involves the elbow so basically everything I do besides squats, core work, and running.... I am beyond frustrated at this point with another injury, and I am really at a loss for words. I can't stand being injured and I seem to just keep getting injured in the most random ways. I do not even know how I hurt my elbow for this one. I am going to retest my elbow on monday and hopefully that will be all the time I need to take off but I highly doubt it. Tomorrow I am going to dynamic squats and a sprinting workout or maybe endurance instead we will see. Oh and I am not giving up burpees I am so close to finishing that I am going to finish the fucking challenge no matter what. The workout was very humbling as well I did not expect to get that little amount of work done. It got a lot heavier a lot faster than I thought. Moving on from this shitty day.

I know how this feels. REST and recover. Tough to do but its the only effective way. Like you said, still exercise just don't use the elbow joint. Lot's of lower body strength training, run, bike, swim. I haven't done pull-ups in a year and its the first time in my life that I have no pain in my elbows (although I have been crushing the shuttlecock lately and am waiting for my elbow to scream at me!!!). Be positive and remain focused, you will get through it.
ReplyDeleteya just sucks that time is the only thing that helps. But hey maybe we can hit up a run soon and a game of badminton since its only my left elbow that hurts
ReplyDeleteBetter bring your "A" game on the badminton court. I've been wiping your brother all over it.
ReplyDeleteThat is because Bryan is no where near my level on the court...you know that.
