Not much lifting here as of late, lots if cardio (usually 8 miles on the bike and 3 or so on the treadmill) been doing a lot of short card (military) exercises, still 220 lbs so my size is ok, but need to get back into more of an overall fitness routine, I have to go to Fl. In a few years and do some academy stuff again

[Adriftpanda]

Forgot how much I really hate going during the after work rush, especially in SF.

Had to work around the crowds and do what I could without having to wait 30 min for the squat rack.

Back day as well, Tom.

Aloha guys, it's been a while and hope all is well with everyone. Physical therapy is on going and I'm still working 1 and 2 pound DB's. Such a humbling experience. Good news is that most of the pain from the bruised bone is finally going away after almost three months.
Bad news, my external rotation locked up, which is not common for what the doc did, so they crank on my arm and force it in short sessions, hurts like hell, but slowly getting better. Still have a long way to go, but all in all, getting better.
Be healthy, :-)

[icehog3]

Great to hear from you, Jay....hope that you continue to improve with therapy.

[Adriftpanda]

2nd to what Tom said. Get soon well brother!

[icehog3]

Shoulder day for me coming up. While Jay heals for the rest of us, I will continue to be our token "cripple".

You are on your way! Take it easy and get well soon.


I ran for a while the past couple days to work out all the alcohol.

[equetefue]

question fellow.... Are floor dips good to workout your triceps ?

[icehog3]

I prefer bench dips over floor dips for tris, Edwin, as you can get a better range of motion (i.e., deeper). Easier to add weight as you good stronger too.

Good shoulder workout for missing 3 weeks....relatively pain free too. Did seated military for delts, barbell shrugs for traps, and close-grip bench for tris.

[Adriftpanda]

Dips

Back tomorrow, hoping to have a little more testosterone.

[icehog3]

After a real low energy, low strength chest day yesterday, decided to do moderate weight/high reps for back today. Kept the reps between 21 and 15, so the weights were pared down a bit.
