Ryan had his usual PE lesson on Tuesday morning and they had to run a type of fitness course - run short distances, push ups, run again squat thrusts, more running then reverse the process and do it five times BUT they weren't given the opportunity of warming up first. Consequently he has been in a fair amount of pain.
Yesterday was college day but when Ryan got up he was nearly crying in pain so I took him to the doctors instead, just to make sure he hadn't done any really damage to himslef. The doctor thoroughly eamined him and found that most of his muscles had gone into spasm, she was not happy that the PE teacher had not allowed the boys to warm up because it is dangerous for teenagers to do this type of exercise without proper care, as their muscles are just developing.
I feel I should notify the PE department that this took place.
Ruan has been taking Ibuprofen and feels a bit easier this morning but he lost a valuable day at college as he has his first exam next week.
