Injuries

Late last week I started feeling "off". I didn't attend Wednesday's class nor did I attend the optional Thursday I Ho Chuan class.  I like attending as many of the virtual classes as possible but sometimes they don't work out and I can't be there. I also understand that to some this isn't acceptable and that we should be attending every class even if it's optional. I tend to disagree on this one but also see the value in attending.

Early Saturday morning I developed a very painful muscle spasm along my left shoulder blade.  It was extremely painful and didn't allow me to attend open training or do much of anything physical this weekend. I needed topical rubs, heat pads and painkillers just to function.  I also got my flu shot and some overdue shots on Saturday. Today (Sunday) I've felt really under the weather and I'm not sure if it's from all of the shots I got this weekend but I'm about ready to be done with these physical set backs.  

What I've been doing is working through my mental side of Kung Fu. I'm blogging, I'm working on my techniques in my mind and writing them down to practise when I start feeling better. I'm working on my University degree and catching up on some assignments. Even when I can't physically train I'm still working on moving forward.  

I look forward to seeing everyone at Monday's class.
