TROY

went to Chiro today due to last nights lower back poping and soreness, he said my sacrum twisted to the right, L5 twisted to the left. So they pretty much "jack knifed" while I was squatting last night. some soft tissue swelling & pain for now but he said nothing to worry about. by mid way through bench the lower back warmed up and didn't cause any problems while lifting.

shannon said she doesn't want to do smith machine squats anymore because they hurt her knees. she also doesn't want to do leg ext or leg curl anymore because they hurt her knees.... oh yeah and she hates squats. I told her she can skip the rest but she MUST SQUAT.

I spent the rest of the time helping a guy with his squat form & technique, showed him how I wrap knees, suggested new knee wraps (titan thp's) and suggested if he really wanted to work on his squat to get some knew shoes so I suggested Ricky Dale Crain squat shoes.

About 2 1/2 months ago I hurt my SI Joint & L5 while squatting. I've been working with my chiro and training around the issue as much as possible. 2wks ago I strained my right hamstring and knee. Probably compensating for the lower back & tailbone pain. Plus, I knew I was dehydrated and had started drinking 1gallon of gatorade every day plus whatever sweet tea I had with supper. Well, that swelled me up from 285 to 300lbs quick. So I cut out on my staple of fastfood for lunch and replaced it with a 100g protein shake I'd split into 2 servings.

Well, rehab and training and diet have been going good. I weighed 292 when I got home from work. Tonight I squatted to test the back/tailbone/knee/hammy. The one drawback about the shake for lunch is that is has resulted in explosive bowel movements. Also ya think ya gotta fart but realize - "OH NO... it's a shizzle".

So there I was tonight squatting 605 for a conservative double and all I kept thinking about was; "Hope I don't blow my back out.... or knee out..... or hamstring out..... oh GOD don't let me skeet myself, I didn't bring my ziplock!

My ziplock is what I bring to every MEET. It is a 1gallon ziplock with a pair of socks, underwear, t-shirt & spare singlet.... just in case I experience "anal leakage".

I hope all of these issues are resolved before the MEET so I can squat with confidence.

troy 2x2x605

we both felt good, nothing hurt both had real good depth. Next week we plan to squat heavy doubles and a few singles. I will have my ziplock packed.


Without fear there can be no courage

Everyone needs to be humbled every once in a while..... unfortunately for you your name is on the short list.

Shannon & Troy

SQUAT

3x10xbar
2x5x155 shannon adds belt here
2x3x205
2x2x245
shannon 2x1x295 knee wraps here troy 2x2x335 add belt
shannon 1x335 troy 1x425 knee wraps here
shannon 1x385 troy 1x515
troy 1x605
troy 1x695

Shannon hates to squat and never felt comfortable so she stopped at 385; made it look easy but she said even the bar felt heavy tonight.

As for me everything felt like shit till I had my belt and knee wraps on then everything got real light. I stopped at 695 because after much thought this week I decided tonight would be a lite night and next tuesday will be fucking heavy.

well the weekend before the meet I was WALKING across a parkinglot and tore the posterior meniscus in my right knee. I felt the pop and with my next step the knee buckled and then it was impossible to walk, couldn't place any weight on the knee. I had to hop to where i was going. That monday was able to go see a ortho and he gave me a cortizone shot, a few hours I could walk with a cane. that wednesday had an MRI and the next week saw the Doc again who told me the meniscus was torn.

I have an app on May 2nd to see another ortho in their practice to talk about my options. I'm of the opinion that if it's broke fix it. I've done alot of googling and reaching out to those I know who have experienced this. they all say get it fixed. even the doc says that if I squat the tear is where the knee bends down on it and it will be aggravated, so I say fix it cause I'm gonna squat. I got a few good meets left in me and I know I can still squat over 9.

Looking to either compete Aug 31st in Manchester, TN SPF - or Sept 28th in Duluth, GA SPF

I still got some stuff in the basement I need to get rid of

I tore my meniscus on March 31st while WALKING ACROSS A PARKING LOT... yeah, think about that. Not while squatting 800lbs or some really cool story like that. Just walking down a slight grade in a parking lot. It felt like I got shot with a bb gun in the back of my knee then with my next step on the right leg it buckled. I couldn't place any weight on it at all, had to hop to where I was going.

luckly got an appointment the next morning with an orthopedist who gave me a cortizone injection and set me up for an MRI 2 days later. Results were posterior tear of right leg meniscus, I pulled out of the IPA MEET that was here in Greenville, SC on April 6th. Steve Maxson refunded my money (Thank you Steve)

Doc's wanted to wait and see how the knee did. I was able to work lite duty the first week and have been fine at work since. This past Tuesday I squatted for the first time and went up to 535. No problems, knee was a little sore wednesday night but no big deal.

Saw surgeon today and he reviewed the MRI. It may not make much sense to some of you but he suggested no surgery. I'm ok with that because I've had enough of'em, lol.

Shannon and I plan to compete Sept. 31st at the SPF RAW/PRO AM in North Myrtle Beach. I will go full power in the 275's or 308's and she plans bench only in the 181's.

My goals for the meet: squat 900-1005, bench 500, pull 750-800 raw
her goal for the meet: bench 425 raw

Did you mean the posterior horn of your medial meniscus?

Not sure I feel for you.  I did the medial meniscus on my right knee while warming up on a smith machine with squats (not ever where I squat but decided to do a quick 1 - 2 warm up sets while some douche bags were curling in the squat rack).  On my 3rd/4th rep I felt that pop and knew immediately what I did.

It is no surprise that the surgeon did not want to do surgery.  From my experience a meniscus tear is so low on the totem pole to these guys.  Unless you are some high level athlete, they won't waste their time.  You would have to have a medial collateral ligament tear to be really considered, and then if you also did some damage to your ACL you would easily be considered for surgery.  Some TKE's and some heel steps off of the Reebok stepper are pretty much the best things for the meniscus rehab.
