Ive been doing weights and exercising for about 3-4 weeks now, so that i can build muscle and tone my stomach. I eat pretty healthily, i dont eat any fast food, but do have the occasional treat. I have been running every day for 3 weeks straight, until my ankle started hurting, and got swollen (which would have been for obvious reasons). Because of my ankle i have been unable to exercise and havent exercised in nearly a week (im waiting for my ankle to heal, and wont be running nearly as much cos i heard you can lose muscle from running too much), but ive still been doing my weights. Is it bad that i have stopped exercising? Will it put me further from my goals, especially since i havent exercised at all in a week?

thanks

James
