Changing Things Up

     Mondays used to be for deads, but in an effort to keep my neck and back from getting too tight, we've swapped Mondays & Tuesdays. Now, like so many of the gym-going public, Mondays are bench. Which would explain why we couldn't get a bench and had to settle for DB. Oh well. Here's what we did:

     My neck was still super tight and painful today, so I wasn't too confident in what I was going to do. I was nervous about pushing too hard and pulling something again. It all went OK though and as of right now, I'm doing OK. I can feel a wee bit of tightness creeping back in so the ibuprofen will be kept close at hand. I surely need to get back to the chiropractor, I can't deny it. I'll make the call tomorrow. 

     I guess when all is said and done, I did alright for myself. I hope I can keep going on a positive wave.
