Been away for awhile - hurt my back & shoulder in a dumb accident at home about 30 days ago. Haven't lifted since, and am finally to the point where my back doesn't bother me so much while standing for a longer period of time.
Shoulder is jacked up, and I'm waiting on doctors at the VA. VA is gov't run healthcare - so things take time, referrals, MRI's, etc. Nothing is ever done quickly.
I have been riding my bike again for 2 weeks, and went out for a jog/walk this morning. The focus was more on just getting 40 mins of cardio in. Ended up doing about 3.2 miles, and my lower back is a little pissed right now.
I'm going to ease back into doing some lifting with legs, but I can't hardly carry groceries with my right arm right now - so no upper body lifting. 1st doctor said it was probably tendenitis - I had to fight to get another look. MRI was Friday - I'm waiting for results.
