Who knew a little muscle could hurt so bad

So I'm not really sure what I did, but I pulled a little muscle on the inside of my leg that hurts like you know what. Because of this, Otto wants me to just do cardio, no lifting with my legs right now.
Secretly, I'm kinda happy because I do enjoy walking. After the last time I did my legs, I couldn't walk for a few days and almost got stuck on the toilet because I couldn't up. I carried my cell phone into the bathroom in case I needed to call 911 (ok...so..no..I wouldn't call 911 but I would call my husband, who would never let me live it down) However, I did grit through that pain.........

So it's an "all cardio" day. I woke up at 0445...went to Dynabody and grabbed an elliptical to sweat all over. I think I may need a drop cloth. I got lost in my IPOD bank of songs, currently my power song is "Crazy" which fits quite right because I got up at 0445 in the morning. After about 45 min of cardio.....I left to get ready for work.....

Afternoon cardio....treadmill....was doing quite well with that for about 30 minutes but was growing bored. There were other people in the gym (at work) lifting weights and such, but it just didn't feel like home (Dynabody). I grabbed the heavy bag and started hitting on it. OH yeah, Otto doesn't know I was doing this....I'm sure he will after he reads my blog...but I really needed to do some hitting and I didn't have my wraps...so...I did some open hand stuff....kinda got lost in the moment of hitting and afterwards realized I had my watch on when I did a backhand....that didn't feel good....took the watch off and did it some more (that felt good) and then I did a roundhouse kick with the leg that has the little muscle that I was supposed to be resting....UGH...pain.....So, that stopped my workout for the afternoon.

Evening work out..husband and I went to him gym. Again, it's not "HOME" so I didn't really enjoy it all that much...and was very un-motivated. I did however go and sit in the hot tub which really helped my little muscle in my leg.

Went home to work on my college work to find that one of the college I teach for added me to a class that started the day before and I had to set it all up last night. The students were upset about not having an instructor so I had to quell all that mess. Soooo tired......

Went to bed late and gotta get up early.
Good news is that we get to swim again on Saturday. I really like that class. Otto is gonna go too, which is a good thing ( I hope he lets me stick with the 5 lbs weights) Thanks Anna-Marie!
