The left achilles again!

Jogged an easy mile on the treadmill and then lifted. I did my normal strength routing but did an extra heavy leg workout. Couldn't do the plyos though since it hurt the achilles too much.

I'm staying off it as much as possible and icing it every few hours. I'm not too pessimistic that it will keep me out too long, just don't want to do anything stupid.

Good job on the workout and keeping the achilles in mind. That darn tendon has gotten me twice and I wasn't smart enough to take the time off when it started so I paid for it with a couple of cross training weeks.

Sorry about the achilles issue, hope it can heal quickly.
