I've been trying to figure out why I haven't done this and can't come with one concise reason, but I think it's mainly down to a mixture of a few things:
I'm a creature of habit
If I were to go for a pure upper body workout I'd still need to change half of it since a lot of the lifts I do involve standing
I'm scared of getting bored with my cut down routine and trying to get back to things too early and re-injuring myself
My goals are more diverse than having a decent upper body (although that is one of them), and working towards one goal but not any of the others feels demotivating (and a lot of my goals are cardio based)
I spoke with a personal trainer who said the best cardio for me to do was the stairmaster. As you can imagine, I would rather do nothing than that solidly for over a month
Also, I was planning on taking a week or so off at the time of the accident anyway, and it turns out it was too easy to let this stretch longer.
But I have used this time to lower my calories and eat a bit cleaner and I've been loosing a bit of weight, about 4-5kg so far. Hopefully not too much of that is muscle.
Also, shame to hear about Brer
