tkd banded knee bands x25/3
roller work

done for the day. got a little tweak in the lower back and it tightened up pretty good on me. the banded hypers probably didnt help it out to much haha. back to the chiro for art and adjustments i go. i iced and salon paa it up which helped but it needs to be opened back up again. as for my knee therapy, it was brutal as usual. the it band and thigh were smooth after treatment last week and come back in and it is all nasty and crunchy again. all the tendons and stuff were super tight and had to be worked over pretty hard. one hip was out of alignment also but we figure that is from the lower back pulling one side down but it got adjusted and fixed anyway. that is probably what made my back tweak a bit. lots of bs injuries creaping up on me for some reason this year.

Tweetlast few days:

diet is on point but i had to zero out because i havent been able to train. i tweaked my freaking lower back sometime on monday and couldnt stand up tues. i hit the chiro up on tues and got where it was bearable but when i went in to do arms during my warmup it tightened up with every step. so i just did a couple movements and got some blood in, did my rehab stuff stretched and rolled. i decided to take a few days off to make sure it is good before legs this weekend. i had another chiro yesterday and it is decient now but still a little bit tender so today will be another day off unfortunately. i still dropped 2lbs even though i havent been able to train or do freaking cardio at all. my therapist says that since the it bands, hips, hams and stuff are all connected and she made my hammies angry on monday and i stupidly didnt put my belt on. i was setup to jack it up right out the gate. i should have freaking known better because as soon as i left the office, my hams and hips both were tighter than a banjo string and on the brink of cramping. the next session i had she worked my hips, glutes and all the way down to the knee. so now i am all bruised up but much looser haha.

done for the day. all in all felt pretty good. legs are freaking wrecked big time since i have been babying them for the last few weeks. just have alittle touch of tightness in my jacked knee and a couple pain twinges but no where near what it has been. low back is still on the tender side but not stiff tight or even close to being unbearable. so i should be able to fire up the cardio again this upcoming week and not be uncomfortable as hell haha. gusto is coming down this upcoming weekend so i have to be 100% to break him off and get him ready. i am also happy to be able to have carbs back in at a decient amount since i can actually train with intensity

done for the day. yep 2 leg days in one week, yikes. great day in though with a really good pace and pump. i prefer this to having to do cardio, so this is a nice change of pace. knee is a little tender still and had a back adjustment early this am. back actually feels really good today right now. hips and glutes are pretty tight though.

done for the day. i didnt do any prehab or rehab stuff other than stretching and rolling today. my glutes hams and low back are sore as hell and i still have a slight twinge in the left side low back and left hip. so i gave the bad boy a day off to rest a little bit. arm day was arm day. stupid painful pumps as usual but i actually felt really good and strong today even though this is day 5 in a row with no day off yet. i got therapy tomorrow so i am of course dreading the crap out of that pain. should give me a good squat this weekend cause i have 2 days back to back of work being done. oh joy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

done for the day. great workout today. good pump and the tempo was super fast. moved some pretty good weights especially since we were only getting about 30-45sec rest between sets. my shoulders def dont care to much for peck work on dips and neither does my elbow tendon haha. did another therapy session today which went pretty well. no where near the amount of scar tissue and adheasons grinding when getting scraped. she worked a different area of the knee as well as the bad part. i have another session tomorrow and we should be able to gauge how much it is helping this weekend. since i jacked my back i havent done any cardio trying to let it heal and i have a feeling that is helping my knee recover a bit as well
