Today, in an effort to be fitter, I joined a Pilates class. Ten minutes into it, I dropped a 10-pound dumbbell on my face. I now have a horrific looking black eye, and half of my cheek is a mottled green color. Not to mention the cut above my eye that needed 4 stitches. FML

A rule as a beginner is to start out slow. You need to use 2 - 5 lb weights before you move to 10lb weights.

No no no. You were supposed to drop the other kind of weight.
The one that's attached to your body. Not on your hands.
