AAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!
Last Monday I was on my last workout and I blew it. I’ve been feeling so good that I miscalculated my limit. I was doing weighted dips. I usually put 70# on the belt and this day I put 80#. I finished my 4 sets of six, but felt something go a little haywire in my chest. I finished my workout and didn’t heed my body’s warning. I think Friday was the day I sunk the last nail in my coffin. I did something like 180 push-ups and I believe that was when the worm turned. I was taking a shower afterward and my chest hurt so bad I could barely breathe. All I could think of was “Hurry with the shower cause I don’t want to die naked in the gym’s shower.” It was pretty scary. I decided to go ahead and try to workout today. I got about 1/3 through and just couldn’t continue. I haven’t quit on a workout yet until today. This is pretty upsetting. I set up a Doctor’s Appt. for tomorrow and I’ll find out what the deal is. I would have to say the moral of the story is…don’t be stupid.

My husband has pulled ligaments around his ribs (I think that's what it was) from sneezing. Sounds silly, but it hurt A LOT and he was certain he was dying. (When he sneezes, it can be 10 to 20 times. He once sneezed himself sober.)
Anyway, his dad had a heart attack at 37 so he was freaking out about it. Turns out he had a sneezing injury.
I had to laugh about you not wanting to die naked in the gym shower.
