Good News, Bad News....I think I'll give the good news 1st. The good news is that instead of toiling for 35 min on a cycle or treadmill for my scheduled cardio, I spent the evening playing ball hockey with a few buds at our local recreation center.

Overall good times...I think I may have burned at least a gazillion calories...at least... ;-) With all the sprinting back and forth for close to 2 hours with no subs and very limited breaks - I was seriously winded! I think it's been a year since I last played and I have noticed a huge improvement  in my speed as well as endurance. I definitely gave the opposing team a workout, hehehe...Too bad I only had 1 goal though. oh well..

So the bad news...I sprained my ankle half way through the game, but played the rest of the game(it would only hurt when I rested, so I just kept on running). Seriously, this really sucks!!...My ankle is now swollen like a ball, and it's pretty difficult to walk right now. So ya, I've got a limp... =) I know I'll recover soon, but my main concern is my workout's for the week. Will I be able to complete the week? I am definitely not letting this injury get in my way of my main goal! This is just a speed bump. With February and March reaching closer and closer, I know I'll be hitting a beach very soon and want to be really lean/cut by the time I reach there.

So I've already looked over this weeks weight training exercises and have tweaked it a bit so I'm not using my foot at all. All exercises will work the same body parts that is scheduled, but will be using a bench instead of standing. Calf exercises will have to wait till next week. As for Sunday's cardio, I'll have to play it by ear. Worst case scenario, is that I may have to use the a$$ killing cycle. But, we'll see.... ;-)
