Well, it's a good thing that just some rest will heal it. Besides, some down time will do you some overall good.

JerseyDevil

Gary and Paynne, yes I think it is good news. In the last 4 years, I don't think I've taken off more then 5 days in a row. The doc did say I could still work lower body, but Rock had a good point about loading plates stressing the elbow.

Good luck JD, It is the stupid injuries that always cause the biggest setbacks. Hopefully you rebound quickly.

Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.

Just heal up and get better and you'll be kicking ass again in no time....

Glad you went to the doctor! Yeah, I've worked in the ER long enough to know what most doctors say to do . Just remember to give it the proper time. Simply put what you have is Tennis Elbow, and while it will heal and be better after 2 weeks, it's never COMPLETELY better. So when you go back, leave the heavy skullcrushers alone and whatever else aggravated it. And warm-up religiously from now on, that will help alot! Good luck

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

2 weeks is a cakewalk. Heal up, then get back full bore!

Iain: Yeah, I think you are right about that. The 'nuisance' injuries can be the worst. This one went from a nuisance to down right debilitating...

Tony: Thanks man. No monster here, just been at it awhile. You stick to your diet, and keep hitting the weights, you WILL be a monster!

Rock: Trust me, skullcrushers are scratched off the JD list of accepted tricep exercises.

Pre: You are right man. When I whine about 2 weeks off, and then think about what you've been through, I feel very fortunate.

JerseyDevil

Oh yeah.... Almost forgot to add journal entry.

Gary: I tried that but he looked at me funny . I think it went well, but the pay was lower then I had hoped, and my perception was that the salaried hours suck. But it might be better then my impression. Will find out tomorrow if I made the cut. I also have an interview with a company that manufactures wire and connectors for the military. May be a great opportunity.

Rock: Thanks man. I know you just went thru the interview process.

Tank! Thanks for visiting my journal. Yes, us fortysomething guys can still rock and roll .

PreMier

Rock and roll is right! Sitting in the rocking chair on the porch

Just kidding, dont hurt me

Pre... you would really laugh if you knew I listen to rock and roll in a rocking chair. Have since I was a young lad. But remember, I never told you that....

PreMier

Cardio

Powerwalk.... well not too much power, but a very nice walk. My wife came with me today, and we had a nice conversation.

Elbow is getting better. Been wearing a compression sleeve, and applying heat every few hours. Just two days ago, I couldn't bend my arm with palm facing away, and touch my forehead with the back of my hand... not even close. Today I can do it easily. Pushing laterally with my fist still hurts like a bitch though.

BIG C

Nice back workout!

If the bar aint bending your just pretending!

Check out my Journal!!
