Injured Hand at Work. Now What?
I have been doing the Starting Strength program since mid October and I love it! I have always kinda lifted weights since high school but now I actually look forward to getting up early and getting under the bar. That is until last Friday at work I dislocated 3 fingers and broke 1 on my left hand. I have a casted club for a hand now and have no choice but to suspend the program. But by no means does that mean I will stop going to the gym all together. I was told it will be a 12 week recovery process with some physical therapy so I do expect to loose my progress. What exercises should I do that wont sacrifice my form and do not involve using the hands? I have an idea of the exercises I can do like squats with a machine where the pads are on the shoulders and lower back extensions. Im just curious to see what you guys say. Thanks.
