Glad you’re back!

Sorry been lazy and out of it so haven’t posted.

Push day today at a brand new gym.

Good job, Huy. :-)

Took 2 days off this time since I've been hitting all upper body. Back in tomorrow, hopefully cleared to do legs on the 9th.

Going to take the weights down a notch for the next month or so. Only going about 75-80%. I just feel like my body is taking a beating lately.

Platz hacks 7x
Bb stiff deads 5x

Went for a walk around the neighborhood with Marie. Nothing much maybe an hour or so. Marie said that she was tired after the walk; I said how the hell are you tired after just 1 hour, you shopped for over 6 hours straight and you weren't tired :-).

Back is paying for it this morning though :-)
[Reply]

Lucky it's your back on not your noggin with a frying pan, Greg. :-) :-)

Suspension hamstring/hip thrust combo

How's the leg holding up, Admiral? When can you hit the ice again?
[Reply]

Nice job, Bob!

Leg gets stronger every day, Greg. It hasn't caused any issues yet at the gym, but the only legs I've done is some light presses. Hoping Doc gives the ok to train legs completely on Friday.

Skating is more of a "play it by ear" scenario now. The limited range of motion only impacts me slightly for walking and lifting...skating will be a problem until it's much more flexible in the ankle. I'm hoping to be skating by October 1, but again, just need to wait and see.

Back day. Strong day. Trying to keep up with this old timer today was fun.

Deadys 4x
Db single Pendlay rows 4x
Wide grip pull downs - machine rows 4x

Hit some quick bis before I left. Machine preachers and Db curls
[Reply]

Trying to find a good pair of pants is hard for me lol.

Legs tomorrow. Can’t wait...
[Reply]

OK, couldn't wait for the Doc's ok. 5 sets of relatively heavy leg presses. I'm a bad boy.
[Reply]

I'm telling. :-)

Why is it I hurt more/longer after I train with my trainer? I feel like I do as much or more myself. Leg day was Tuesday and I'm still sore as hell.
[Reply]

Yeah, he probably knows me well enough anyway. :-) I go see him tomorrow.

Must be something to it. :-)
[Reply]

More exercises? More reps/sets/intensity/rest frequency

Being sore from training doesn’t always equate to having a great workout (I know you didn’t it was). I hear this far too often at work or even at the gym.

Leggys

Fronts 4x
Platz hacks (I love this machine) 4x
Walking body weight lunges x 200 yards
Box steps ups - single leg step downs 4x
[Reply]

Nice work, Huy.

My quads were super sore after the leg presses Wednesday. So I went heavier today. :-) Only did 4 sets though, that's still a lot after 10 weeks on nothing.
