You didn't do so badly, Jeff. Honest.

PS: I mentioned Contour had fallen off, got back on, ridden half an hour, then speed and pulled out? Turns out he broke his tibia in the fall but rode on anyway. Puts discussions about the impossibility of eg training with broken collarbones into perspective!


Yes, weigh in is definitely 9:30 till 10 with the young kids kicking off the lifting thereafter. I have had this confirmed by Mr Beck himself.

Riding on for half an hour with a broken tibia is quite hardcore, and there was me thinking training with a broken collarbone (alleged) was tough!!! Wink

PS. I was really that bad!! It certainly felt it anyway!!

Who was having this discussion Rick? and what was the basis of this train of thought?

It refers to Pedallos long standing disbelief that I have broken my collar bone in the past despite a trained Dr having the opinion that it had been broken (on at least one occasion probably more).

Ahh. I think I've heard the same conversation about mine. I remember discussing them with Mr Banks who advised against shaving them as they had been broken and not set right, the procedure would only be cosmetic and probably get smashed up again with minimal training.

Silly us for accepting the opinions of qualified doctors and orthopaedic surgeons Confused

Any Given Sunday. You can pull it out of the bag on any given Sunday.

What time do you predict we will be lifting on Sunday Jeff?

I've had a great build up last couple of weeks, no training! Lol.

I'm guessing lifting no later than 11-30 all done and dusted by 12-30??? Of course I've no idea how many are lifting but I very much doubt it will be an all day job.

Littler will be made up you're still lifting, he was worried you might no show and he'd end up just loading!!!

Your build up sounds better than mine! Wink

Good holiday?

Call me a festering, fat, half-witted, dozy, old t**t if you wish. But I still find it unbelieveable (in it's literal sense) that an active man can break a collar bone and NOT KNOW.

In the original story the trained doctor was giving you information that was news to you.

Clever he may be, trained he may be, infallible he is not. As this would be the only time in my life I have been right, you will understand my reluctance to capitulate.

He was indeed telling me something I did not know, but it was something that was of no surprise and made sense of a couple of instantly memorable periods of intense pain on the aforementioned collar bone. Fallible he may have been but all evidence pointed to his deductions being correct and I still think he was.

as well as the fact that the guy who was doing exactly the same exercises and reps as yourself has similar experiences verified by 2 GB team doctors, several GB physios and an orthopeadic surgeon who was at the time in charge of training for all orthopeadic surgeons nationwide. What do orthopeadic surgeons do again? Oh yeah, conditions involving the musculoskeletal system (including collar bones).
Do you know better than all this experience? Still?

DOH!!!

Lol. I'm fully expecting you to do 115/140 minimum!

I have no idea how I will perform as I've not touched a weight in two weeks Confused
