I've been digging in the garden, after a month, my bicep is bigger, (there's a bulge that wasn't there before, at least I think it wasn't) but my wrist, forearm, hand and shoulder are weaker. I can't use a little hand spade, but the shovel type, that my upper body strength combined with stronger left arm, and legs, that I can do.... Before the gardening started, I could still hold a round brush with enough tension to style my hair with the blow dryer (ladies will understand) I can't keep a grasp on it now.
I like what Tom's Support said, about being one's happy self, not one's worn out self. I truly enjoy working in the flower beds, and I try my best to not overdo.
