The first rule of fight club is don’t talk about fight club. \u00a0The first rule of working out at home is don’t hurt yourself. \u00a0Applying the sensible Hippocratic oath to yourself. \u00a0Oops. \u00a0Twice this week I’ve broken the first rule of working out at home.<\/p>\n
First, I pulled a muscle in my right arm. \u00a0Owwee. But ice and rest and heat have pretty much brought it back. \u00a0Not fully, but on the road. \u00a0Then, this evening, I went for my first pull-up, two exercises into the P90X leg and back workout. \u00a0Ready to get started I reached up, pulled hard and the next thing I knew I was on my back, the back of my head (fortunately, the really hard part) had bounced off the concrete basement floor and I had road rash on my elbows.<\/p>\n
Sorta backward when you hurt yourself when you’re working out to improve your fitness.<\/p>\n
This required a concierge physician’s examination. \u00a0She shined a flashlight in my eyes, palpated my head and rib cage (it hurt for some reason). \u00a0She said nothing made her nervous. But. If anything tingles, or I’m confused or if I see lights when I turn my neck, wake her up. \u00a0Fortunately, she sleeps right next to me. \u00a0That’s not a problem.<\/p>\n
So, I’m taking two days off and I’ll get back at it Monday. \u00a0But. \u00a0I’m buying, in fact I just ordered, a stud mounted pull up bar. \u00a0The one I have now attaches to the door jamb. \u00a0Or, should I say, was supposed to attach to the door jamb.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
