gotta start again sometime!
i have been working out sporadicly. I had a rt. arm problem…it seemed to be much better even after a long bike ride (not sure how long-20 miles?) and a heavy backpack
on Nov. 9. I was sitting on the couch seeing if I could hold my arm out and up w/out problem and then it happened! Worse than before. Aching! This time
it feels like when I had something like tendonitis. Pretty bummed about it. Yesterday I wanted to start my 5th week again and thought that would
be a bad idea with this problem. I don't want to make it worse!
I chose Plyometrics instead and only had to mod. a couple of exercises. Not sure what I'll do today. Maybe legs/back and leave out most of the back….it is gross out and I don't feel like running but we'll see.

moves
feeling a teensy bit better. At first it was constant pain but now it's when I move my arm in certain ways or certain positions.
It's dance night and I want to go---gotta get some cardio w/some 80's tunes!
Just have to be careful of the way I move---which is hard as I am a total dance-spaz.
Wow- I walked into the joint and started dancing in 10 seconds….I did not stop for more than 2 minutes for 3 hours and 10 minutes.

moves
p90x Chest, Shoulders, Triceps
back on the schtick-even if it is with trepidation about my arm.
Did surprisingly well-skipped 3 exercises and one (1 arm balance push-ups) I tried and failed w/pain on the first one.
I lowered weight on a few things----could not extend arm all the way up or out to the side
but I did my best. The coolest thing is that it did not worsen it. Still feeling improvement. That gives me hope.
