[twisted]

Hey your still on my mind! ....HAPPY NEW YEARS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY BROTHER!!

[Samson]

Morning Samson, you can be an asshole and still have the "right" people behind you lol. Hope your recovery is going well brother.

Come to think of it…. I am an asshole to only the “wrong” people. Lmao
Getting a little better each day!

[Samson]

Good morning my brother.

Good morning Samson, Throat Punch Thursday is upon us.

Morning, Push.
I’ve two fresh scars on my throat that could look like targets to the right person. I reckon I’ll just stay in my own lane for a bit! Lmao

Hey your still on my mind! ....HAPPY NEW YEARS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY BROTHER!!

Thanks, twist! Same to you and yours.
We are getting a little closer to normal around here… until school starts back

2022 is here, let’s pray for a happier and healthier year for everyone!

I finally had my feeding tube removed yesterday! Now, I can start rebuilding my core strength. It was extremely painful to move around with a PEG tube drilled through my abdominal wall. We all know a solid core is everything. I was also able to visit some of my nurses and fellow patients. Lots of hugs, tears, and words of encouragement. My heart is full today, my friends!

Gonna have to. I don’t have too many steps backwards before my ass falls off the cliff!

Today was the first workout in my fight to rebuild myself. Mostly bands. I have a cheap multi/home gym pulley station and light dumbbells. That’s going to be my gainz for a while. Slow and light!

Chest and shoulders:

Shoulders:
Warmed up with bands for a good 30min.

Red band (lightest band I have) Lateral raises: 4 sets to fail.

Dark Blue band (medium-ish) Overhead press: 6 sets to fail.

SS Dumbbell Lat raises w/ front raises: 12lbs 4 sets to fail.

Chest:
SS Machine press w/ flys: 3 plates, several sets to failure.

Light blue band. Low flys: several sets to fail.
“ “ High flys: “ “
“ “ Mid flys: “ “

I finished with kind of a warm down. Bands for internal/external rotations and overhead stretches. About 15min.

I lost a lot of muscle and plain old strength. My shoulders are froze up from not moving them while I was sedated for so long. Stretching and doing my own PT just about everyday. It’ll take a few more weeks to get my ROM strong enough to lift something other than my wife’s dumbbells!

I’ll post up some before and after Covid pics, for the dramatic effect, another time.
