Yup, just like the title suggests, I'm down for a bit. I injured myself while doing some ab work, and I'm now the proud owner of a strained rib muscle. It's amazing how little things, like breathing, can hurt a rib muscle. So, as far as the gym goes, I'm kinda limited. I can still do my spinning and elliptical, but rowing is out for a while. My weight training has also taken a hit since too much arm movement is painful. I'm down to 30 minute sessions, but we're only doing legs. Now, don't get me wrong, my trainer managed to make me beg for mercy in my last 30 minute leg session. But, none the less, push-ups, pull-ups, and ab work will have to wait. I'm not thrilled about it either.
I'm really not good at having limitations. I'm a tough chick, so it drives me crazy knowing that something little like this can slow me down. Like I said, I'm doing what I can, just not everything I want to do. I was actually boxing with one arm today, just to get some arm work. I'm completely over this and ready to move on!
