u wanna lose the gut, get your diet in check... im in the diet forum all day long answering questions.. so are guys like nova, nark, rugger, and phate.. any of these guys will get your started in the right direction... do your physio and try to eat right... that'll help your body more then anything (i just came offa a shoulder injury, so i kinda feel ya)
