Good-bye floor, hello ceiling fan

[leanbean67]

Anyone had this experience? And my ceiling fan is pretty high up off the floor, as we have a vaulted ceiling. I decided to really give those plyo-jumps the old college try, at least as high as Cathe is doing. Whoops! Cathe doesn't have a ceiling fan above her! I got that fan rocking even more than it already was! Good feeling jumping that high...but my endorphin high was slightly interrupted. Anyone have any "startling" moments while working out?

TOTALLY. I have a beam in my ceiling that I've totally rammed my fingers into a few times during those plyo-jumps. It's the same beam I forget about when I'm doing moves like raising up my stability ball above my head! BOING!

I have had assorted things "vibrate" off the desk or tv and right on to the floor while doing hi impact work outs or using the rebounder. One time a candle holder fell and broke all over the floor. :-(

I won't do leg presses on the high step w/my ceiling fan going for fear of getting my head chopped off!

I don't stretch my arms out fully during high impact if the fan is on for fear of losing fingers!

Been there too Doing power 15's and got my fingers whacked by the fan, had 2 blue nails to prove it. Once I neglected to heed Cathe's bid of 'safely put down your weights' during PUB, I ended up getting my fingers pinched between a 12# and 15# dumbell, yet another blue nail. I've also pinched my fingers between plates changing my barbells, feels so good when the pain stops:+
