If you are like most people, you do not know when to quit. It is just a little pain. Well, pain is our bodies way of saying something is not right. About 4 years ago I had a really good set of arms. Arm workouts were my favorite. While at my drill weekend, I was particularly determined to do my workout even though my left forearm did not feel right. To make a long story short it is now four years later. I am still not able to do a bicep curl and my well shaped arms have disappeared.
Lesson learned….LISTEN TO YOUR BODY! This is actually the second time I’ve had to learn this lesson. I have a similar injury to my left pectoral muscle. I can bench press (after 12 years), but I will never be able to find out how much I can bench without tearing it.
There is no shame in stopping your workout if you feel pain. Had I know that four years ago, I would enjoy my gym workouts much more.
