Swimming - Alternating Flutter Board w/Front crawl wearing Fins
20 min
I had someone talk to me about 10 min before leaving for the pool. This person I spoke to was enduring and dealing with a situation that made my blood BOIL. People need to be empathetic to others plight sometimes, especially when they have already been informed to stay the FUCK out of people's business.
So this swim was much faster than usual. I pushed the pace until I thought I was going to vomit a few times. I came out of the pool refreshed and with a slightly calmer mindset.
0555 hrs
I was due to be at a work Breakfast at 0730 hrs so I a) wanted to earn my breakfast (steak and eggs), and B) had no time to waste. Rest during the RDL's was time spent swapping plates, which were sitting at the side of the squat rack. (remember: I cannot bend over to pick the bar up safely some days)
RDL
1 x 21 x Bar
1 x 11 x 95
1 x 5 x 120
1 x 5 x 145
1 x 5 x 155
1 x 5 x 185
1 x 5 x 205
GHR (done throughout the session) 3 x 11
Shrugs
1 x 21 x 135
1 x 21 x 225 (no straps)
5 x 9 x 315 (1 min rest)
the shrugs were killer with the shortened rest throughout the session. GHR was tossed in hear and there. Those reps were done for FAST. RDL's felt solid. 205 felt a little heavy in my hands but my movement was still fluid and smooth
1158 hrs
6 Hrs Post Trg Conditioning
Prowler
2 x 20 m x 90
2 x 20 m x 180
2 x 12 m x 270
4 x 12 m x 360
GHR 1 x 13
From beginning to end this was 20 min. very solid, hard breathing session.
Notes from Physio:
my 3 week visit to check in, this was post trg and pre-prowler. Needled the leg and did some pulling on the hip to give my socket some room. This was just in time. Happy I can go three weeks before I need to see her. It was a much needed treatment to day
Notes From hospital: After Lunch I went back to the hospital and talked to the nicelady who does admin for Doctor referrals to Surgeons. She did speak very highly of my surgeon (her own mom saw him for hip surgery). He does not do little cases he sends those to a different ortho. the majority of his patients are over 60. So not sure what that says about me.
But I was told to expect to wait up to a yr to see him. Which yes sucks. A LOT. The huge upside is that after I do see him my surgery wait time will be minimal like only a few weeks. So Bad and Good but at least now I know why the lack of any news.
This now means i will start working on an even longer term plan and not just with my training. I will really get the ball rolling and stop slow down when the surgery comes.
