How can you know the difference between exercising in effort to improve your condition, versus resting to let your body naturally recover?
I'm trying to get my game back from what I'm guessing is a bout of tennis elbow. At one point, about half a year ago, a feather's weight would keep me from being able to open my wrist upwards against gravity (the backhand motion upwards). It was really strange because I wasn't aware of getting injured, just a couple hard days at work twisting 12g wires together and shoveling dirt. Needless to say, for a backhand player, this was a problem.
Now, I want to go and throw a ton of shots and try to get some pop back in my wrist, but it's hard to know when I'm in the realm of "exercising" vs simply "grinding down whatever's left of my joints". How do you know?
