22 July 2013 - 358 Days after the ACL Tear...

So i enjoyed my time up north visiting Friends and Family. A few big markers to speak of. A Lot of training as well. 2 a days are the norm when in Petawawa it seems. The Hip Flexor is still acting up a little but improving steadily every day. I am still able to squat and Deadlift so no complaints or reasons to drastically change my training.
The Shoulder and Upper back is coming along. But still day to day, some days it feels great and other days it feels like i irritated while sleeping or doing something else random.
I will not go through everything i did last week but here are some of the marking posts:

-Finished my first 5/3/1 day for Squat and Deadlift last week. With the New template I now increase the numbers and go for another 6 weeks before i deload.

-I finally got back on the mats. I know a lot of the guys from Evolution Petawawa including the head instructor so got some solid rolling time in. I kept it to a minimum but did get out on the mats for 3 sessions next week.

-Today was another major day. The Army Doctor cleared me free of restrictions (mostily). I am cleared off my medical category that essentially freezes my career and keeps me from deploying. I still get more time to work back up to full speed but I am good enough now to pretend i am like everyone else.

The log will go back to normal tomorrow. I have been doing a lot of thinking and re-vamping in my head for immediate (3-4 weeks ), Short term (2-3 months), and longer term goals (4 months - 1 Year) So some of that i will try to hash out so what i am doing makes sense.

My Girl surprised me with this when i came home from Squatting today. So i was totally in my anabolic window when i ate this wonderful Carrot Cake. We celebrate things in my house with Cake, you know the normal things...accomplishments, milestones, the death of terrorists, birthdays.

Keep Getting Strong(er), Keep Moving Forward
