Ice Ice Baby
by blondtwin
Last night was biceps and triceps and tonight was the chest workout.
We got done with our inverted press (50 lbs doing 4 sets: 15, 15, 15, 21) and flat bench press (55 lbs same sets) when I went to put my weights away. My muscles were all quivery from exertion so, when I tried to place the weights on the rack, my hand slipped. My middle finger got caught on the lip of the rack underneath the weight.
I'm so proud of myself. I didn't cry, although it stung like crazy. Heck, even though it swelled up and hurt to bend, I still finished my workout. The raised bench press (45 lbs same sets) and the one - I don't know what it's called but you have two sets of weights and you loop the handles around each of your wrists and kind of punch forward with both arms. Anyway, I only did 10 lbs per arm for that one.
Then I grabbed the 7kg exercise ball and did 4 sets of crunches, 25, 20, 15, and 30 and hopped on the bike for 30 minutes (8.30 miles).
So, anyway, my finger is swollen and I have a bottle of ice/water that I'm using to try to take the swelling down. It's still looking pretty fat.
