28 March 2013- Trachea Trauma Thursdays

This video is from last year may 2012. The day after the seminar i am going to. This is the level of lifters that the presenters and coaches attending this May are at. Mind blowing to say the least.

Short week and work has been insane but who cares about that? this is about training and recovery from surgery. Short timeline this morning but i got to the gym as it opened so i gained some precious time. To say that there is an absence of people in the gym the past few months that need some massive esophageal reconstruction through trauma is an understatement. I simple have moved away from complaining about it.

Standing OH Press
2 x 10 x Bar
1 x 5 x 60
1 x 5 x 70
1 x 3 x 85
1 x 3 x 105
1 x 3 x 120
1 x 3 x 135

The way the 120 lbs moved off my shoulders i was unsure how the 135 was going to feel, besides heavy of course. Every weight was fast and snappy up till the 120 lbs which was a little odd but meh. The last set everything moved very smooth and easy, it felt like a ton but i had the raw grinding strength to simply push it over head. Good Times.

Done Before, During, and After OH Press:
Black band Face Pulls 3 x 40
TKE's 3 x 20
Horizontal Shrug 3 x 15 x 55 lbs
Seated Calf Raises 3 x 20 x 65lbs
ADduction Machine 2 x 20 x 115 lbs
ABduction Machine 2 x 20 x 205 lbs
Trap Machine Shrug 3 x 20 x 90 lbs
Head Harness 3 x 25-30 x 25 lbs
V Bar Press Down 3 x 20 x 60 lbs

The knot is still lingering a little in my right Gastrocnemius (calf). The Physio things it is less Soleus /Gastroc and something called the Plataris which is related to the knee locking and unlocking of the knee. Which would make sense why when certain aches get irritating going up and down stairs some days felt sketchy at best, those days are behind me.  Also why the only position i still have discomfort is when kneeling except when i jam my thumb into the muscle. The Acupuncture is working so when i see my new Physio in a week or so we can keep the needles coming. If required of course.
Keep Moving Forward, Keep Getting Strong(er)
