Yeah, I kind of disproved that whole mind over matter statement.... I didn't mind but it sure as hell mattered. I've always been good at ignoring pain and driving through something but at this point, I'm starting to suffer the repercussions of it. Arthritis, bursitis, no cartilage in the left shoulder, etc.
The guy I worked out with at that time had a similar issue. Too dumb to quit. I lifted with him and he ran with me all through Iraq. Now, he no longer runs his PT test (ran until his feet broke) and I don't do pushups. We crippled each other with our mental "strength"....
It creates a lot of issues when working on bikes too. I've picked up the front end of a cruiser before when loosening a nut and didn't notice until the nut broke loose.
