Took a full week off from working out because of my wicked elbow tendinitis. Rest and ibuprofen don't seem to have alleviated the symptoms, but they have left me raring to go. Going to dial the pushups and pullups back a notch or two in the hopes that the less strenuous movements will not aggravate the condition as much and allow some healing to happen. Convict Conditioning emphasizes the need to master each step in order to strengthen the joints and connective tissues for the subsequent, harder, steps... maybe there's something to that.
