I had an appointment with my chiropractor today. When Dr. Jen asked me how I was doing today, I told her that I’d hurt myself. I explained about how, sadly, it was NOT when I was lifting heavy stuff or doing push-ups or whatnot. I was simply doing some stretching (I can’t remember the specifics –  whether I was in yoga class or warming up before a workout or stretching after lifting or what).  Suddenly, the muscle in my upper right back, over my shoulder blade, went “NOOOO!!!!” and hurt.

I’ve started stage 6 of New Rules of Lifting for Women.  For the most part, I’m still listing my accomplishments each stage.
