Pulled Muscle

So I think I pulled a muscle.

As you know, I've been hitting the gym pretty regularly over the last couple months and, I think, I have a nice routine going for me. I do a mix of cardio and weights about four days a week and I think I've been doing a pretty good job. I do about an hour of cardio a day and spend about half an hour on weights...and hey, I'm up to benching about 50 lbs. That's not bad, right? Anyway, a couple days ago, I decided to up my sets and push myself a little harder. I was doing some shoulder presses at about 75 lbs...and was totally feeling good about it...until the next morning. 75 lbs is probably too much for me because now, I think I pulled a muscle in my shoulder. That's the only explanation for the shooting pain I get when I raise my arm above my head.

So, even though it might kill me, I'm gonna need to take a couple days off and rest my shoulder. Ugh. I hope it feels better soon because I hate messing with my workout routine.
