on the tricep work i am trying to hammer my outer heads a little bit, so i am doing half the reps with elbows flared out and away from the body and the other half in tight and normal. these are deload workouts but i am still trying to stimulate pumps in areas i am trying to hit. i also went in to the doc for treatment on the knee again today. all i can say is i got the crap beat out of me. i had dry needling done, then muscle scraping and then needled electro stims. the needle in electro stims hurt like a mother. the scraping wasnt bad at all until later on after i got all the waste product out of the area and now it is sore as hell lol. i get the joy of having it done twice a wk for a few weeks to try and speed up the recovery process.

TweetOK, I finally looked up these rehab moves you are doing. I just want to laugh and cry at the same time. Looks like the Tuesday 'Silver & Fit' class. You really are willing to do ANYTHING to keep making progress. Sharing this can really help a lot of guys who constantly put off real rehab. You have figured out that when you are injured you must get well before you are able to continue on your regular program. I never stop learning from your thread, thanks a million.

what's funny is that i didnt know that i had issues with my glutes firing properly and it was causing tightness in my it bands and knees when i trained. so she gave me those movements to strengthen the areas and learn to make them fire properly. what i did when i originally got hurt is take a look at articles written by power lifters and their injuries and how they bounced back from them. i figure if they can squat and do what they do it can help me get back to it twice as fast as having work done in a clinic solo. those techniques they use to break the stuff up and get it healing faster are crazy crazy painful haha. i may get my entire back done after my leg is good to go. it is supposed to aid in growth as well

done for the day and last day of my deloading. so i went in with a different secondary back workout planned and went straight into this one without even thinking about it until 3sets deep. the gym was insanely crowded because of the holiday so i had to substitute a movement because i had zero freaking patience to wait. all in all a very good workout overall and i felt pretty good once it was done.
