Day 16

It was Cardio X day today.  I was beat when I got home from school and my internship later than usual tonight, so I didn't go extreme this evening.  The cardio routine warms up with some yoga moves which include a lot of the downward dog and push-ups.  I don't do well with either of those.  I skipped the first 15 minutes, but went hardcore during the kickboxing stuff and tried to finish strong.  My knee seemed to pop out of place when I was doing jumping jacks.  It scared me a lot.  I had twisted it and hurt it real bad January 3, 2007 doing cardio kickboxing in Eau Claire.  I couldn't run for about a year.  I got physical therapy and worked with it and now I can run and do all that stuff.  However, after tonight, I'll take the jumps a little easier on my knee.  Surprisingly, even though I heard it "pop," it didn't hurt much and I was able to continue with the rest of the workout tonight.  I think it scared me more than it actually reverted to damage.  That's a good thing though, better to be fearful of something than to actually have it happen.  Maybe I'll wear my old knee brace during some of the routines....
