Corncob pullups with a strained neck hurt like CRAZY. I only did 7 today.
We got up this morning to do one of my favorite routines, Back and Biceps. My knee was feeling great, probably 85% and I knew another day or so of taking it easy it would be right back to full strength (and I could go on a run and re-injure it for another week - ha!). I got down stairs and on my very first set of pullups, I strained my neck. C'mon workout gods, give me a break here. My side, my knee, my cough...now my neck too!?
Anyway, I pushed through the rest of the workout without being able to really move my head to the left much. Instead of lifting heavy and feeling good about myself today I ended up backing off on the weight so that I wouldn't strain my neck any further (or some other body part the fitness gods think would be funny to injure). I got a pretty good workout, it was just discouraging to not be able to push as hard as I'd like.
Hopefully it'll warm up a bit and the sun will peak through the clouds a bit so I can get in some bike miles today.
