What's really scorching my (workout) groove is a bum left shoulder. I f00k3d it up swimming Monday, and skipped my swim yesterday to give it a chance to heal. So far today is the worst. I could barely pull on my socks/pants this morning. I did manage to get them both on though eventually.

The worst part is I think I know how I did it. Our normal pool is down for repairs, so our swim group is using a collegiate pool, that has a bulkhead moved about 1/3 of the way down it's length such that the 'shallow' end is 5' deep. I am 5'2''. S, inbetween sets, I have to hang on the wall or the rope to keep from drowning. I'm pretty sure this is when I ganked my shoulder out of whack.

Unfortunately this is the only pool that we are going to be able to use for at least 2 more weeks minimum (Murphy's law will apply I am sure).

dammit.

I'm sure you know this already, but liberal use of icing it and taking ibuprofen will shorten the recovery time.

Oh yeah.. I've found icing does wonders for my sports injuries. Especially chocolate... makes the pain just recede into the background.

It's probably the caffeine, but I don't think that works when applied externally.

I thought you were talking about the dings in her car (well I'm hoping Max is her car,) at first.

I've become confused and disoriented.
