    Excellent new Marcus! Was getting worried about Nach so thanks for checking in! AG - work sleep, eat sleep, workout sleep - I don’t know how u keep this routine! Everyone keeping it real!!

    Workout yesterday! Feeling today!
    Intent was legs but unable to finish (fatigue) so switched to around the world (every muscle group at least once).

    It would have been smarter to finish legs...I am very hurting all over! Ha!

    Still got this eyes/sinus and lingering bronchitis :/ I’m needing ophthalmologist! :/

    Happy Saturday!

    It's a bad year for the crud. Seems like eyes and ears are really the target this year as well as respiratory crap.
    Get well, GGR!!

    Think you e-virused me. Woke up with the crud real early Sunday morning. Drank some hot tea, stuck my head in the freezer, slammed the door a few times, and then went back to bed. Much better today!

    It is. All about time management at this point.
    Committed myself to 30-60 min 4 days a week for training. I have to have it.
    Hope you are well.

    Thank you, ma'am! Much better, except for eyes and energy level. Eyes look like I ran a yard rake through them and feel a bit frazzled. Very good sleep today, but need to do some mental housecleaning in the old brain bucket. Wicked GH dreams.
    Got to lift tomorrow! Screws with my head when I miss a day or two.

    Definitely time for a pullback except for squats. Will stick to the same routine on those. Little bit of left shoulder pain, something going on with left trap over towards the spine, and I think the left hamstring/biceps femoris pain may actually be coming from l. piriformis? I noticed the pain/discomfort is up a tad higher when lying down, and if I cross my left foot over on top of my knee, it eases up a tad.
    Massage Friday and I hope she wears me out and leaves me in a puddle.

    The battle between body and mind continues.

    It was legs today and took my sets to were my body wanted to stop, its roughly were normal people stop when doing their sets lol. I felt sick and went white but managed to complete a decent workout but I couldn't awaken the rage inside of me to push into my growth zone. I just couldn't find the right key even though I used everything in my arsenal to search for it I was defeated and had to withdraw yet again.

    I can say though the workout went well, took myself to were my body was struggling and wanted to stop and I completed all sets and reps in a very controlled fashion with exceptional form. My mind is and was my most powerful tool but the connection for the rage ive had for the last 32 yrs seems to be disconnected but its not for the lack of trying. I felt sick and didn't look so good after this workout and just sat in my car with my eyes shut listening to music.

    I wont bore you with all the details but it went something like this

    Leg ext
    3 warm up sets
    3 working sets all pyramiding the weight up

    Leg press
    2 feel sets - top end of the rep range with concentration on the descent
    3 working sets I increasing the weight and pretty much time under tension

    Squats
    2 feel sets
    3 working sets - same weight but deep arse the grass squats with mind full engaged with bracing

    Pivot lunges holding weights
    3 working sets nice and deep

    lying leg curls
    3 working sets top end rep range

    Stiff leg deads
    3 sets

    standing calve raises
    3 sets high rep range

    Sounds like you dug deep, Marcus, especially since you pushed to the point of feeling ill. Moving forward always.

    Saturday morning I saw the biggest 3 pt I’ve ever seen running 5 does. He was being followed by a doe who was being followed by a button. It was fun to watch. Have you done any good?

    Always like squats and the end of quad work. That way we're more prone to have the target muscle fail.

    Well, great leg day. Almost.

    Extensions: 3 sets normal weight 15 ish reps
    Squats: Hit normal weight for first time since hamstring tear. Slower than normal pyramid up to the one set. Racked it at eight. Felt good.
    Verticals: 3 sets 12-15 piston like reps. Great burn.
    Seated curls: 3 sets normal weight, 8-12 reps

    Went to the kneeling one leg machine and it fell to shit. On second set with moderate weight my right hamstring this time took a shit. There's no doubt I've now torn this one as well. I'm sooooo pissed off. When it hit I yelled instinctively and my son who was on the second floor (I'm in basement remember) heard it and ran down. I've been icing it and resting. Wrapped it as well.

    I am fucking beyond pissed off.

    Called and the earliest I can see the Ortho is Friday morning. I also texted the PT guy from the last ham tear and asked if I could stop in and get his opinion. He's a good guy and we got along quite well. I'll see him at 1130 tomorrow.

    I repeat. I am fucking beyond pissed off.

    Fvvvvck. Glad the PT could work you in quickly. Really hope this is a minor issue, Kel, and not a major tear. Defo please update after your appointment.
    There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...

    Sorry to hear about this Kel, I truly can empathize here. Hope for a good outcome after talking to PT.

    Really sorry to hear about your injury Kel, I fully understand your frustrations it really dig deep. I have a fear constantly now about injuries when I get under a weight, its like my body is telling me something to be extra careful these days.

    Keep us updated mate

    I've been doing some research and speaking to some professionals regarding an enlarged heart and I wonder if you know of any studies or solid information if its possible to reduce the size of the left ventricle? I am talking about an athlete who has caused this issue not something what is hereditary.

    I am getting mixed messages and wonder if you have any information across the pond what would shine some light of this condition?
