Yeeeeeeaaah Buddy- dave's log

haha i got to shovel ****ing ****ing ****ty snow for 2 and a half ****ing hours at the end of which i discovered some ****ing **** had ****ing beat my snowman from yesterday up! ****s!!!!

This bastard snow is beginning to get on my tits. Another day sans training and all the snowball throwing and digging has made my arm injury flare up again. I've been icing it on and off for the past 3 days but to no avail. I think another break might be on the cards.

I notice on the news that even though the gym was shut, they somehow managed to open it up as an emergency centre for stranded motorists:

Two rest centres have been opened in Petersfield - at the Taro Leisure Centre in Penns Place, Petersfield, and in the church opposite the Good Intent pub in College Street, Petersfield.

How bad is the arm mate? my elbows were feeling it after an afternoon of shovelling.

Awful. Just the same as when it was bad last time. It's quite painful now. It's definitely biceps tendonitis and it came about because I spent 2 days between Xmas and NY at work doing some drone-like data entry stuff which meant I was doing hundreds of repetitive movements with the mouse which gave my shoulder some major discomfort. A day later the biceps tendon was hurting.

Maybe it will go again like last time? Frigging hope so.

Love the snow! Early home last night from work, today, tonight and tomorrow off work too! Sweet!

****ing nasty mate, what is the usual rehab procedure for biceps tendonitius?

Good to hear pain free in relation to squats!

Nice lifting mate, especially the deads.
What happened to your knee? Sorry if its been asked been loads before.

Shoddy lifting by all standards mate!! dead rep pr's are 190 x 10 and 200 x 7 to put that in context. I probably couldve done 10-15 today with 170.

My knees have been causing me problems for ages, always rugby related. Probably 2-3 years. The right one is worse than the left but basically i used to get ****ing bad patella pain, to the extent i couldnt walk down stairs, after i did any running for a week or so. Hence long periods of not being able to squat or deadlift as they hurt too much to do so. Had a roid jab in the right knee and I am not going to run anytime in the immediate future until i can sort the problem out, thus enabling me to lift!

Planning to reload the squat and dead fairly gently over a week or two, probably squatting x 2 a week. I ll take it gentle unitl i hit a 140 3 x 3 squat (end of next week maybe) and a 200 3 x 3 deadlift (week or two id imagine) then crack on as usual.

Lifting > running

Fair enough mate, ive had some bad knees too!
dislocated my left, and displaced my patella which in turn ground away my cartilidge for 2/3 years. All good now :) except they can ache when its cold, like now

couldnt agree more mate. running is for idiots. i squat in apt knee sleeves, i rate them a lot. might be worth you investing in a pair.

I have one knee sleeve courtesy of jjb.
That was just for my left knee (cartilidge injured one)
Are "Apt" a brand?

I used to run loads, when playing football, but i couldnt run a mile now

certainly are mate, here you go:

they re quality. I always use them to squat in. You dont get any carryover or anything like that but they must make my knees feel warm and comfy.
