I skipped another workout today and with my trainer's blessing. He told me not to workout today. I'll have to skip tomorrow too since I have a dentist appointment at 4pm. Blech.
While I hate skipping workouts and I feel funky when I do, I now it's needed to give my shoulder time to heal properly. I am happy to report that right now, as I type this, my shoulder is pain free. However, a lot of movement makes it sore and ache-y.
I've kept up the icing and ibuprofen pattern all day at work and now here at home again. I've also gone between ice and heat since I got home and I'm sitting here listening to Disturbed videos on Youtube thinking I really want to work out. Soon. Just got to wait another day or two.
Even if my shoulder is not fully healed Wednesday, I'll have him give me something light and non-arm related. I could do stair runs, squats, lunges, etc and not hurt the shoulder. I really need to work out.
I never realized how much I look forward to those things in helping me deal with the bullshit that I sometimes put up with at work, ya know? I always knew it was a stress relief, but damn. I had no idea. Until today. I was in a crabby mood all day. Even the trainer noticed it and made a comment about me being in a "not so good mood" today. He knows me pretty well though and can always tell when I'm not up to par on my moods.
