this morning it was hard to get up and work out. i finally got motivated enough to start around 11. once i started i was doing really well, feeling good. about 20 minutes through the workout, i began an exercise where you’re in plank position and kick your leg behind you. in mid kick i felt the most horrific pain EVER which took my breath away. it took about 2 minutes to get out of that position and sitting where i could not even bend my leg. i already knew it was my lovely sciatic nerve. no other pain takes my breath away and makes me stop dead in a movement. along with the pinching of this nerve, i also pulled a muscle in my inner thigh simultaneously. at this point, it hurts to sit, stand, and lie down. i’m walking with a limp and i’m pretty much just grumpy. i hope that it gets better VERY soon considering i have to work tomorrow evening and i also don’t want to have to already start taking extra days off of exercise. i’m not gonna lose any weight if i can’t even walk!
i guess today i will rest it, take some meds, and put heat on it. and hope it heals soon!
and on a much better note…
merry christmas eve! i hope that it’s wonderful and that you all remember why we celebrate…our Saviour, Jesus Christ!
since you cant do lower body workouts focus on upper body and torso training. most doesn’t require a lot of lower body movement.
you just gotta look stuff up in order to do it.
i hope you feel better so you can get back in the swing of things.
