So...I've been going to bootcamp now for a while and actually really LOVE it! It is super fast paced and I always leave feeling accomplished with fatigued shaky muscles but this day I left with a little less--skin that is!!! One of their favorite strength building exercises is called a plank were you are essentially in a push-up position on your toes, body strait but on elbows (usually). This day we did a lot of different variations one after another! We had to lift a leg, then add a row using elastic bands, then a rotation--long story short, we were propped on our elbows for a loooong time while we proceeded to grind them into the 1/4 inch mats on the gym floor! By the end of the workout I don't think it would've mattered if we'd have been positioned on marshmallows...everybody's elbows were a mess! The worst part, was that it took forever to heal because day after day band-aid or not I continued to rip it back open!
