On August 12, 2025, I ruptured my left quadriceps tendons while doing leg presses. Three weeks later, I had surgery and had my leg in a locked brace for months. Rehab followed and life was PAINFUL, to say the least.
My leg shrunk to a twig; my wife and kids had to help me get around the house and drive me to work. Even our family trip to Jamaica was less than stellar for me.
I'm pleased to report that I finished rehab in January. I got to train everything but legs (outside of rehab). Now, my left leg is about 90% of what my right leg is. I lost 15 lbs during the ordeal. I weight 245 when I got injured, after which I dropped to 230.
I had a new quest: To be better than I was before the injury. I wanted to reach a personal record of 260. Right now, I'm 254. My goal is to hit 260 before New Year's Eve.
I have about three months left. Here we go!!!
Hopefully, you never endure what I have. But, if you do, you can rebuild stronger than ever.
Eat, Drink, and be Massive, my brothers!!!
