 Commentators say: he benches like a bodybuilder Member 231, 1873 posts SQ 400, BP 275, DL 3651040.0 kgs @ 135.7kgs Eq | i hope your improving joni on a regular basis keep doing the best you can with what you have and dont loose heart mate i know this is not quite the same but when i was 16 i started training and within a year i went from 10.5 stone at 6'1 to 15 stone i loved to train, just did bodybuilding stuff but it was good to have something in my life to channel my teenage agression into in a positive fashion, it became my whole life my diet was obssesive, people where amazed at how much size i had put on, going from skinny kid to 15 stone of sloid muscle then when i left school at the end of the year i started work as an apprentice joiner and i was sawing all day and hammering all day then going to the gym and training chest and shoulders on different days and before i knew it i had really inflamed my shoulder tendon and my muscles at the front of the shoulder where over developed in comparison to the rear delts and this caused the shoulder to hunch froward and cause great pain, everyday even to sleep on it was pure pain and at 16 this was tough to comprehend as everything that i had based my life arround was taken away from me whent to see doctor, he said shoulder was fine, sent me for an xray and they said it was fine and that i should just stop training so i decided to train around my shoulder injury the best i could, as i was not going to just stop training i started training legs and evereything i could arround injury eventually after a lot of depression i decided to quit my job and goto pyhso the pyhso new what was wrong with me within mins after about 9 months of hard work and pyhso i was back benching and pressing (something that i thought i would never do again) and i never looked back so the moral of the story is this, i hold my pressing and leg power as my best strengths i was only able to develope one through lack of chioce because of injury and the other developed after serious injury so joni, so can you mate keep it up dont get disheartened | ||

 Weird injury specialist - now with funny groin Member 283, 1648 posts | Joni said: cheers guys! And good to see you popping by Mick - are your niggles gone by now? Just had a family holiday,don't feel to bad.Going to start squatting (light)again next wk so Ill find out then if the rest has done it good.I bloody hope it has anyway! Alex said: Why's your arm get stuck? Pain or lack of mobility? no its because the tendon attachment is just growing back so its very fragile. One wrong jerky move and it comes off. 6 weeks minimum for it to grow back and then starts slow mobility and strenghtening work. | ||

 THE original and THE best ... Member 297, 2523 posts SQ 210, BP 155, DL 272.5637.5 kgs @ 80kgs UnEq | I know this is going to get some funny repiles but hey what the hell!!!! Do you have a Nintendo Wii ? Theres some games called Wii sports and Wii fit that could aid to your recovery without leaving the house!!!! You can work the core muscles on the Ski and Hula Hoop game + others, and when the arm is ready to be worked there are loads of games that could build up strength in the arm and pec tendon without the use of weights ( tennis, bowls + golf)! Bit more interesting than those crap rubber bands they give you in Rehab! Just a thought and please feel free to anihilate me for the message!!!!!  By the way i Don't have a Nintendo Wii, i have a PS3 and its mind blowing in full 1080p resolution! | ||

 left the country satisfied Member 10, 19241 posts SQ 240, BP 150, DL 270660.0 kgs @ 107kgs UnEq | hehe that wouldnt be a bad idea dont even have a TV though - maybe you could hoook it up to a computer screen... robocop, cheers for that. I think that mental aspect of when training goes to s**t due an injury is neglected often, or not mentioned. Fighting hard not to get too depressed about mine, and having A Plan helps with this IMO. I have a roadmap back to recovery which keeps me sane and doesnt get me frustrated because The Plan evolves on bi-weekly basis and i can feel and see the progress almost every day. like i could only lift my left arm about 30 degrees only 10 days ago, and now i can lift it (with slight assistance still) above my head - small but important things on wed: dumbell work at home, some wanky things and 3x15x15kg shoulder press and CURLS with right only of course. yesterday: 50 mins exercise bike back extension machine up to 20x125 and two sets of CURLS! legs jellyed, 20 min walk back home was challenging | ||

left the country satisfied Member 10, 19241 posts SQ 240, BP 150, DL 270660.0 kgs @ 107kgs UnEq | sat: 70 min powerwalk, ~700 cals. dumbell work shoulder press (r) 15x12 15x16 15x21 CURLS! Sunday: 65 min power walk some db work with wrist curls and s**t The Plan could include starting to run some sections of the powerwalk but according to the rehab protocol, running starts only at month 3, so still almost 2 months... These do bring up the sweat and feel like a good cardio at the moment but will probably run out of their use soon. | ||
