Do you know your limits? Do you respect them?
A quick update on my workout experiment: during a jump move the other day, I pulled my quad. Nothing too bad, but rather than finish the last 15 minutes of my workout, I immediately went to the cool down and then scheduled a massage, which seems to have done the trick.
I was tempted there for a moment to push through the pain, but for what? I already know I can’t achieve physical perfection—it’s not in my DNA. I’m a writer, not a fighter.
It’s nice knowing my limits. It keeps things like perfection and photoshop in perspective.

Getting a pedicure while savoring a latte also makes a nice alternative to excercising with a pulled quad.
@WG—I got a pedicure once (the story of why isn’t interesting). Couldn’t walk for like four days. The pulled quad lasted less than half that. I’m still ahead.
