Listening to your Body!

Lately, my husband and I have become tennis fanatics. We would workout hard in the morning and then play tennis at night. He has been complaining about his back. It has been hurting. Also, it had been hurting during the morning workouts. Yesterday I had to play care giver because he was in pain. All yesterday we rested and did absolutely nothing. I made sure he took a lot of advil pills and those heat patches on his back. Today is our off day so he really gets two days off. It is important that we listen to our bodies. Make sure you know your limits and that you don't over do your exercise. Be patient with yourself and let your body adjust to one workout before you add another. Plus, if you do add another work out, do it slowly. Add a little bit at a time.

The most important thing is to take care of your body. You only get ONE!!
