My neck is still not perfect. I'm wondering about what I'll do today as exercise. I should definitely do some form of aerobic exercise but with my neck like this, it's almost definitely looking like it's going to be indoor cycling. :) I will probably also do some form of weight training. I'm going to try to do aerobic exercise every day, because that's the only way I'm going to keep it regular. Of course there will always be days when I feel to tired and such but I'll do my best (or I should... lol).

Edit: Exercise went well today. I did some indoor cycling and, afterwards, I did 2 sets of push ups and pull ups. I'm somewhat surprised to find that, at least with push ups, I got definite better results by doing 2 to 3 sets a day, two days in a row and then rest, than my usual 1 set a day with 2 days rest. I already suspected that push ups were too light for so much recovery time and I got a definite improvement over what I was having previously. Of course that, with some weighted exercises, recovery probably takes longer since they're more intensive. In a while, the conclusions I get from these two exercises will possibly be helpful to determine recovery times in other different exercises. Now that I'm betting on a split routine, I can have specific rest days for each routine. My split routine will probably consist of pecs and triceps on one day; back, biceps and forearms in another day; shoulders and abs on another day and, finally, a leg day. These days will not be fixed with the week days (e.g. Monday - pecs and triceps, etc), they will move through the week according to each one's specific rest period :)

edit: I haven't eaten bread in some time. I'm eating the second sandwich today (came in a pack of two) but I was terribly hungry and, though high-GI, it was the least unhealthy thing available at the time and I thought it's not so bad health-wise that it should be thrown in the garbage, so I'm finishing this one too lol. It will probably be a long time before the next piece of bread :)

edit: Thanks for accepting my buddy's request Tim! :)
