Hello guys and happy 05...
As I posted a week ago, I didn't do any weight lifting since Dec 21 (See Journal). Around Xmas, I think I pinched a part of my right shoulder (the almost-muscleless area between the side delt and the traps, right above the collarbone) while sleeping on my right side. Since me, my wife and my 8 month old son had to sleep in one king size bed, I was sleeping in that position almost everynight the whole 2 weeks.
I got back to the gym today and the pinch is still there when I do chest exercises.
That caused my poundage to drop, so did my intensity. I didn't bother finishing the workout and switched to cardio instead.
I probably worked out around 70% capacity, which is not a good thing for me. Although I do take it as a sign to take it easy after a long layoff.
Any of you have similar post-holiday workout blues?
Also, does anyone (PT, doctor, pros, etc) have any idea how to get rid of this "pinch"?
