overhead exercise unbearable
Posted: Sat Dec 12, 2009 7:23 pm
I always hated doing the Military Press (like a bench press, but sitting or standing upright and pushing straight up) - or any similar "overhead" effort, like, say, changing a lightbulb.
But almost a year ago, when I was still undiagnosed, but in what I now understand was the relapse which precipitated my diagnosis, I was doing a MP and I almost fainted. I don't think I felt all right (relatively speaking) for two or three days.
Now I think - wouldn’t that particular exercise have put a lot of pressure on the jugulars?
Anybody else notice this? Anybody know if my anatomy is right or wrong?
