Yeah, definitely -- real horrorshow But until you're better, you might consider cruising, Al. Ounce of prevention and all that.
Thanks for your concern. The case that I have is, and I quote "not very bad at all" I asked if I could start lifting again and the doctors said it would not be a problem because nothing is torn. I was on bedrest for 4 days, worked one day and rested again for 2 more. I felt ok on Monday when I trained, the fact that I didn't beat the logbook is probably more to do with the time off than any lingering side effects. Trust me, if I felt shitty or had an ounce of pain in my side I would not have done anything for the rest of the week. the main thing I need to focus on is watching my diet, which isn't all that hard, I just have to eat foods with virtually no fiber in them for about 3 weeks, get tested and then I'm on a high fiber diet, which the doctors told me was as simple as adding some wheat germ to a protien shake.
Anyway, I did 45mins of cardio yesturday and plan on training today at lunch, I forgot some of my food so that blows. Instead of having my second meal, which should have been scrambled eggs and a yogurt-which I have to eat to "coat" my stomach and make digestion easier I had to have 3 breakfast burrito's from mcdonalds...well I didn't have to have them but I have to be at work early and I was running late so this is what I had.
training info to come later which will be interesting because last time I did this workout I flat DB pressed the 120's 14 times rest paused and when I lifted them on Monday for my inclines they felt like they weighed about 150lbs so It'll be intersting to see if I can at least equal my total from last time. I would feel alot more comfortable training with the 115's right now as I had to make the jump from 110 to 120 and the 120's feel a little awkward to me right now but life isn't perfect so I'll have to make due, maybe this is a good thing cause no way in hell could I do the 120's 14 times a couple of months ago so I know I'm getting stronger.
EDIT: Here's how it went:
Flat DB Press-120*13RP with a 20 second static-while trying to start 14th rep-and a 60 second stretch with the 70's. I noticed my body mechanics were off while kicking the dumbbells into position, my left leg isn't getting high enough so not only am I trying to lift the weights up for that first rep I'm fighting to get the DB's into position. Seems like maybe the DB work is more trouble than it's worth, if I can't correct it and beat the book next workout I'm dropping them.
Seated DB Press-95*9RP no static cause I failed trying to get #10 and couldn't get going again, I did a 60 second stretch, again maybe DB's arent the best choice for this style of training, I have not had access to them in a long time, heavy ones that is and maybe I got over excited and tried to use them.
seated machine dip-215*17RP, 30 second stetch with a 65lbs DB-beat my reps and weight from last time.
T-Bar rows-190*5
135*10
I switched the order of my back movements because the guy using the PD machine I wanted to use just won the LHW at the masters nationals, he's getting ready for the north america's and I ain't asking him if I could work in.
Pulldowns-215*15RP-no problems here, beat my weight, 15 second static and 45 second stretch.
overall a good workout, next week should start to get fun cause I should be back at 100%, I'm having a little trouble with hack squats cause they are a new movement but other than that I should be back to ass kicking.
