My BodyBlog

I’m leaving for the gym in half an hour.  I’m going to do chest, biceps and forearms, with some cardio after.  I’m starting the workout with bench press, looking forward to getting back to the weight I was lifting at the end of December.  I had to stop bench for a few weeks after spraining my wrist, and then I eased back into it while having aching and stiffness in my right arm.  I tried to ease off on anything to do with that arm for a couple of weeks and it’s paid off because the aches and stiffness have disappeared!  I’ve felt 100% for about a week now, and after doing deadlifts and a good triceps workout last week, the arm still feels great!  I’m looking forward to getting in some intense workouts again, not hampered by the wrist or arm.  I’ll always listen to my body though, can’t push it past what I’m reasonably able to do without injuring something.  I don’t know if I’ll get back to my PB on the bench press tonight, I’ll just do what I can and hope for the best.  I know I’ll get back to it soon, then break it and continue to improve.  Wish me luck!
