fctilidie said:Looks like a decent plan to me. How are the injuries at the moment?


Pec feels fantastic, still don't want to push it to far. Pressing is becoming a lot more comfortable, just the strength in my right shoulder needs to catch up. Doing pullups/pulling movements feel fine on my shoulder, just get difficult depending on the movement with my bicep. The 8kg dumbbells felt really light, but I would rather progress slowly any make sure everything is ok.

The bicep is no longer painful, but it's still weak and misshaped. I'm waiting on an MRI for it now but the DR isn't sure if they can do that with there being the metal anchor in my arm. Just been told to train around it and do my own physio etc for it for now untill they know what's going on properly.

How's the knee holding up?

Don't remember everything I've done this week, and don't have my journal to hand.

Over the week, I've military pressed, done pullups, squats, deadlifts etc.

This morning I did 3 x 15 @8kg for incline dumbbell presses, as I don't wanna go straight to any flat work just yet.

Il look through my notes later and update everything.

As of Monday, the plan until further notice (hopefully) will be.

M - Safety bar squats(5/3/1) + Lower body
T - Military press(5/3/1) + Upper body
W - Run, active rest etc
T - Deficit Deadlift(5/3/1) + Lower body
F - HIIT - Stationary bike
S - Military press(5/3/1) + Upper body
S - Any missed sessions from the week

Sunday will be any missed sessions due to exams/revision/life getting in the way.
Everyday il be doing mobility work, stretching, rotator cuff stuff etc.

In terms of food, il probably stick around 200/200/50. At the min just need to concentrate on recovery and get through my exams.

Saw the second Dr today. He basically said he isn't sure, to quote him 'the distal tendon is mushy, and the proximal tendon is completeky gone'. I'm not waiting to find out if I can get an MRI scan. Apparently it's a hassle because of the metal rod now in my shoulder. So I'm looking at another 8weeks minimum before anything happens. Which I guess is kind of a good thing as I can get my exams dne&out the way. Il keep training but just avoid anything that causes pain or puts to much stress on my bicep.

Am - ran 10 miles

Pm
Military press
1 x 5 @20kg
1 x 5 @40kg
1 x 1 @50kg

1 x 10 @20kg

First day properly back at uni. - ran 10miles.

Got a call this afternoon from the surgeons secretary. He wants me to see another specialist as what would usually be a straightforward surgery has become a lot more complicated due to recently having my pec done. Hopefully get it sorted ASAP. Meeting the new guy tomorrow morning to discuss what options I've got.

I think il probably be out even longer then previously thought, but I guess I still have age on my side! If I do have surgery again, I'm going to either request a phisio or see my own, to reduce the chance of anything else like this happening again.

- on another note, 4days, 40miles ran.. Doing 70miles in 7days, really just to see if I can, and it's something to do whilst I can't lift/fight. Also adds something different to training as I have very little motivation whilst being soon this situation! -.-

Thanks Jordan!


Went to the hospital this morning, had an ultra sound scan on my shoulder/arm. The pec has healed virtually perfect so far from what I'm told. However, I've completely ruptured the long head of my bicep(same arm) at the shoulder end. I'm not sure what will happen with this as I don't know if the surgeon will want to open my shoulder up again.
