I am gimp
Yesterday, I ate a Luna bar before my step class and decided that I was going to KICK ASS in class (e.g., be EXTRA bouncy).
Unfortunately for me, my body decided that it didn't really want to cooperate.
By cooperate, I meant that my ankle would be nice and supportive when I was doing turns on the step and NOT decide to roll all over itself.
And sprain itself resulting in me falling on my butt in front of the entire class.
This was....embarrassing.
And extraordinarily frustrating because I CONSUMED AN EXTRA 180 calories before class!!!!!!
SO...I sat out for a grand total of 5 minutes simmering in anger at my stupid ankle.
BUT THEN! I realized that this injury? Would make me NOT BE ABLE TO WORK OUT FOR AT LEAST THREE-FOUR DAYS. And this...caused me to panic a little bit.
So. My thought process:
1. This stupid ankle is going to let me not work out for a few days.
2. But I still have lots of adrenaline running through my body
3. This makes me not hurt as much. Plus...swelling won't *really* happen as long as I keep moving.
4. Might as well enjoy adrenaline while it lasts!
SO! I got back on my step (albeit not working quite as hard since u kno, ankle...and falling...makes one not as aggressive as before...) and finished my class.
Now I am out at least for a few days. I have a golf ball for an ankle. I am also in love with ACE bandages. They make my ankle happy.
Wonder if I pop a few aspirins I can get on the elliptical machine tomorrow...
