Getting work in while nursing a popped rib?  So I popped a rib last night. It's not the first time and I'm definitely not looking for medical advice. I'm probably off the mats for at least a week or two so I was wondering what others have done with this injury as far as keeping up their cardio. I worked really hard to build mine up and I would hate to lose all of those gains. 

Obviously I'm doing nothing through the weekend, but then I'm going to try and run next week. Has that worked out for others here or did it prolong the recovery? I have been eyeing a local tournament in early June and I haven't quite given up hope of making it just yet.
