Recovering From An Injury

Recently I injured myself while working out. Let me tell you this - no one enjoys suffering from an injury. It's painful, miserable, frustrating, and annoying. It happens suddenly and unexpectedly so where do you start? Here are a few tips I have for you from when I have experienced an injury. 

1. Visit Your Dr. 

It never hurts to take a quick trip to your Dr. to find out what is really going on with your body. In some cases the Dr. isn't always necessary. But if the problem doesn't get better or gets worse ask your Dr. whats going on!

2. Slow Down 

Sometimes it can be very difficult to take a break from working out. Especially when it is a part of your everyday life. But would you rather take a few weeks off and be healed? Or would you rather be permanently injured? 

3. Find Something to keep yourself preoccupied.  

It can be very difficult if you are like me and working out is the majority of where you spend your free time. Find something else you enjoy doing to take your mind off of the gym. Go to the movies, binge watch netflix, bake your favorite gourmet dinner, or just enjoy having a little more time to relax. 

Also random I know but here is one of my gorgeous flowers to brighten your day! 

I hope these tips helped you! 

Until next time,
