On Tuesday, I completed the third workout with lunges as well as my physical therapy foot strengthening.
On that day my quads were killing me! It felt like I was tearing the top layer of muscles on the front of my thigh. During the first set of lunges, I thought, “It will go away as I warm up.” However, it did not.
The second set of lunges was truly excruciating, and the third set I cut short because I couldn’t take it.
I stretched my quads as much as I could b/c the pain was quite high.
I was also experiencing some trouble with my right shoulder. The nerve running from the shoulder to the elbow was inflamed. Every time I did the tricep exercise, I had to grit my teeth as my elbow hurt! I knew it wasn’t muscle, though, b/c it hurt when I wasn’t doing the exercise.
Despite all of this my left foot was doing really great! I did all of my foot strengthening exercises with zero pain!!! It was fantastic! 🙂
But, I still could not wait until Wednesday to see my chiropractor and massage therapist!!!
