Today's Workout Thread

[Leatherstockiings]

Well my PT regimen hit and unexpected snag on Sunday. I was hit by a car just a few minutes into my Sunday bike ride. I destroyed the hood of the car and went airborne over the roof and landed in a heap in the middle of the street. No serious injuries though just a broken tibia. So it will be a while before my next ride/run. I'm in the hospital at the moment. Needless to say I was sore as a boil this morning

Dang. I'm sorry to read this, 1OldGI, but glad it wasn't worse. Get well!

Yesterday was cycling 24 miles in 1:38.
Today will be weights, whatever my guru has me do.
I work with a trainer, cuz, three bad lumbar discs require careful weight handling.
Cycling doesn't hurt too bad because of the way I have had the bike fits done to help the back. I don't hunch over into an aero posture ever!

Does sweating your ass off all day long because its so damn hot outside count as a workout?

Wow, sorry to hear about your terrible misfortune, I wish motorists would pay more attention to the road. Hope you get back on the bike soon!
Doing heavy bag today, and in light of 1OldGI's dilemma, I'll use the elliptical inside today. Godspeed.

Sorry to know this! OTOH: As per your description, you are kinda lucky guy. It is not really "lucky" to be hit by a car actually, but you could have got worse injuries, my guess. A lot worse, in fact!

Absolutely I was blessed. Last night the nurse was telling me that cyclists struck by cars generally go straight to the ICU if in fact they make it that far

I had no loss of consciousness, head trauma or internal bleeding just a busted ass leg that's really sore at the moment but will heal in time

I was hit by a car a long time ago. It was largely exceeding the legal speed limit for a neighborhood street. I had my head sewn, but no loss of consciousness, or broken bones. I was very angry, but watching it from years beyond it was kinda funny. The car hit me in my outer finger on my left hand, I flew over the roof (actually saw it), and landed behind the car. My bike was undamaged!

When the doctor told me "you are very lucky" I told him "Lucky you! You've crossed the street and nothing happened!". I was mad at him that day, but now I know that it could have been a lot worse.
