REHAB UPDATE - 12 weeks post op

Saw the surgeon today. Gave a go ahead on anything apart from back squats due to the stretching, and said to ease into it light and slowly. more details from physio tomorrow.

SUGDEN

first time some barbell lifts

press
3x15x20kg

front squat
10x20
3x8x40

stiff leg deadlift
some sets x 22.5

press was funny enough quite tiring. Squat and dead felt like it is, nothing, but i guess it has to be done.

Leg press
5x150
5x200
4x5x245
3x245

felt weak, so not suprised i missed the 5x5.

Great news mate. I would suspect you will reaquire strength in the gammy arm quite quickly

Be good seeing you progress back to your form of late this season

The bane of my life!

Thanks guys!

Just came back from the physio - got a senior one now and was quickly pulled to all directions and all kinds of tests performed.

noting these down here so i wont forget:
- progress slowly, every time doing something new, give it 24-48 hours and see how it feels. if ok, continue, if not back off (common sense, but needs to be spelled out for halfwits like me)
- keep doing dumbell work
- all movements ok but they have to be controlled and slow. meaning no explosive lifts for a while. And no back squats Unhappy
- better to up the weight and do lower reps - fine by me! This is not HEAVY SINGLES green light yet, but better to do 6-8 reps with 10kg than 20 with 5 etc.
- introduce more pressing, including half press ups and when they are easy, full press ups
- very gentle forced stretching is ok to introduce, tricep is tight so that needs to be stretched
- swelling that i get sometimes when running or doing a lot of rehab is normal and could be one of the last things to go

probably forgot tons of things already!

When have you ever waited for a green light to do heavy singles?

Its like I don't even know you anymore. Cut the f**king hair and go for a squat PB. Grin
