Oh ... My Shoulders ...

For two weeks now I have been getting back into the martial arts after nearly a year ...

A year where I needed to rest an injured shoulder ...

A year where I gained 14 pounds ...

And now after two weeks I find myself nearly doing the 55 push ups I will need to be able to do for my Midnight Blue Belt Test on July 31 ...

For a few days my shoulders really rebelled against me.

But, it is clear that taking the time off to finally allow the left shoulder to heal after my rollover was the right thing to do. I had been hurting myself and giving myself the bad kind of pain. Now, I have a month to be ready for the exam and it feels like the rest of the weight and the shoulder strength should be there ...
