Even that will be fking hard to do! Boar said: wonder why the pec swells - isnt the ligament attached at the shoulder/arm end ? aye, or tendon to be exact. But who knows what happens in the pec, it was bruised to fk when the injury took place. its calmed down again now. Seeing the physio on wed so will ask about the swelling again. Last time she said its not bad and its to be expected when starting the rehab to new levels. do you think long term it is better to have happened now n been fixed or was the injury totally avoidable ? avoidable, but would have needed to know about the tightness being the pec major tendon rather than just tinking it was "shoulders". And it wont be reattaching in any new kind of way, so it will be as tight as it was before the injury - basically meaning wide grip benching will never happen (not a loss). hows the hair ? very good thanks

The Plan is to nail hip belt squats again on saturday at milsys - cant give up on something just because i f**king hate it SUGDEN CENTRE a bit of a crazy session with max out on banter, but here we go anyway: dumbell snatch (shoutout to Baz who made me go a bit heavier) 10x15 10x15 10x22.5 10x30 6x35 6x37.5 5x40 nice to snatch the 40kg db, now should learn to overhead squat it. Overhead db squats 6x25 6x25 hammer leg press 10x150 10x200 10x220 leg curl 2x12xstack one arm deads 3x100 1x100 - grip tired and wanted to leave db overhead press, strict 2x12x22.5

left the country satisfied Member 10, 19241 posts SQ 240, BP 150, DL 270 660.0 kgs @ 107kgs UnEq	Rehab has up and down days and today i was a bit down and depressed about it - so f**king frustrating sometimes! Hey ho, just have to suck it up and keep at it. Anyway, went to sugden for some cardio SUGDEN CENTRE walk/run intervals on treadmill, 4km, 28 mins, hard work. guys were on the smith machine so i tried some squatting with it without hands - it could work. tried 5x80 and while its a bit tricky, it feels like it would be more beneficial than the leg press. back extension machine 20x100 then Yet Another Crazy Anthony the Machine Challenge: 81x100kg - pain cross trainer - lower body only, after 10 minutes i had to bail out, completely done.

always lookIng for the extra UT2 work. Member 9, 18279 posts SQ 255, BP 167.5, DL 330 752.5 kgs @ 103kgs Eq	Chin up mate! 5x40kg DB snatch is good. Once you get the all clear you will be back setting PB's in no time - stick with it

left the country satisfied Member 10, 19241 posts SQ 240, BP 150, DL 270 660.0 kgs @ 107kgs UnEq	thanks guys! highs and lows! neil, i think we are kind of in a similar boat that we can emphatise the emotional/psychological side of these injuyries and the frustrations involved. I find that having A Plan helps me loads, it was just that someone tried to argue with me that The Plan laid down by my physio and surgeon was dangerous and way too fast, but fk that. That thing you linked in wouldnt actually be all that useful because i wouldnt be able to hold with the left arm anyway. And when it is strong enough to hold that bar, it is strong enough to do squats proper. Rehab update Visited physio again today. Many of my fears and worries are just that, and nothing substantial. My ROM has improved really fast and pretty much worryingly good progress (as in causing me to worry, not the physio). I have about 95% of my front raise/flexion flexibility back, 90-95% of my abduction ROM and all of my other plain of motions are about 100% - seems like way ahead of the schedule for some reason, but we are all individuals with different pace of recovery etc. Next stage is rotator cuff strenghtening exercises with a theraband to all planes of motion. Bodyweight: 105kg** - oops!
