Disuse and Overuse

You ever tried to do a lot of muscle-heavy work in a short period of time after not really doing much of the muscle work?

Yeah... welcome to my today.

My family got a bunch of new furniture and I needed to move it all into place (after acquiring it, of course). No big deal. I like physical labor. Moving stuff around is easy street.

That is... until I somehow manage to mess up my arm.

Yep. A muscle in my left forearm is not happy with me right now. I lift stuff a bit... so I'm not sure what happened... but it seems a lack of use followed by sudden and prolonged heavy use is not my friend.

I can't ball a fist without a bit of discomfort... and typing isn't even my favorite thing right now.

Looks like no Street Fighter for me tonight. Sad times!
