I'm taking a weak off.

I have a couple of injuries and decided to quit being stubborn and I'm taking a week off. What if any effects do you expect I'll find on monday when I hit the gym? Do you think my shape can be negatively effected after one week? Will DOMS be worse? Is this just over thinking things?

Sweetie, you're over thinking things. Most plans have a week off built into them at 8 -12 weeks.

[n8te]

you'll be fine. rest is a good thing.

[Sledge]

Take the week off. Relax and don't even think about training. Efects you can expect is to come back refreshed recovered and stronger both mentally and physically.

My week off is technically over but I'm not doing anything in the gym till at least Wednesday. I'm back to worrying full time about my injury rather than worrying about the time off. The best I can tell without speaking to a doctor, I have a pinched nerve in my neck. My rotator cuff on the side of the neck injury is toast. I was feeling better and stronger but the problem seems to vary in severity based on little more than chance.
