Charlotte (toastythemosty), how is your elbow?

Is it feeling any better? I have been trying to lay off mine... it feels better most of the time but does get aggravated if I do any weight work using my arms, which as you can imagine is very frustrating! I am going to wait until the end of the week and if it is no better, make an appt with my doctor for anti-inflammatories (or, I should say, have her tell me what is wrong and get it fixed )

Anyway, hope you are feeling better!

Cheers,
Marie

Marie- Thanks for asking! It feels fine for the most part. I just think what you posted about the tight grip could be the problem for me during the bench press which is the only time I have this issue and I grab onto my dumb bells so tightly because I fear they might come crashing on my head! LOL! I am actually going to do upper body today and will loosen my grip , but I really thought your post was most helpful and will see if loosening the grip will make a difference for me. I will let you know. I can't wait to get going here in a few. The weather is chilly this morning in Virginia and can't wait to warm up.

I hope you are feeling better too. I know how frustrating it is when something gets in our ways when we are trying to workout so hard. I guess the best thing is to rest the arms for now or you could make it worse. Let me know what the doctor tells you. I will be thinking about you.

Glad to hear you are feeling better. I wish I was, too!

It is actually in the 30s in Pennsylvania today and it is supposed to SNOW! Ugh. However, it will be in the 60s tomorrow. Very weird.

Have fun with your workout!

Take care,
Marie
