Shoulders are hurting tonight

They got aggravated a week ago after last Monday's workout and they haven't settled down since. Lifting the Atlas stones 25 times on Saturday didn't help the situation. And tonight's session further irritated things. I just put some Biofreeze on them. I haven't needed to use that in a couple of months (aside from last Monday). I was planning to go to the gym again tomorrow evening since my husband will be down in DC for the night, but I don't know if that is going to be possible now. I guess I will have to wait and see how they are feeling tomorrow afternoon. The problem is that if I know I have an "out", then I'll take it. I can be a slacker like that.

Yes it is. It feels good on my shoulders after a workout when they are aggravated.

@NJChicaa — I think I’ll break out some tonight after the Epsom salts soak.

You are going to have to give those shoulders a break.

I think you should rest your shoulders for a while. Just a couple of day at least. I know someone who overdid things and pulled something in his shoulder he could not lift his arm for two weeks. So do be careful.

Sorry about your shoulders but if you keep going you may only aggravate the situation.

Jay uses Biofreeze on his legs at times, after biking a long distance. How is your weight loss program doing so far? You have passed the 10 pound mark, which I predicted about a month ago! Sorry your shoulders are giving you pain, again. I'd rest them up for this week.
