Man, you crushed the EZ curls via the sheer will of VOLUME.

Good luck with the low back issues - and finding shirtsleeves that fit.

**IronAvalanche** · 05-07-2011, 05:32 PM

So let me get this straight. Your having shoulder issues. Your not at 100% and you do this.

Glad to read you are seeing a physio / doc Flex. Of course their big issue is getting their patient to be compliant!

Thanks everyone.

Lisa made my Pre-Workout drink while I was at the dealership getting some stuff done on the SRT; I think she put an extra scoop of jack3d in; I was in full beast mode. Best arm day in a long while.

Tricpes are sore today. French Presses FTW!

I'm going to try, Dee. I really am.

So much for rest day. Spent the last 3 hours or so washign the beast.

F'k I love this car, but it's a total PITA to wash. I did the engine bay, the exhaust tips, inside the wheels and everything. I need a nap. LMAO

But it looks great, no?

T-bones for dinner, and my physio appointment is for 8:20am so I'm setting the alarms for 5am instead of 4:25.

w00t!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Back only tomorrow. No chest work as per doctor's orders....

Happy Sunday, kids.

**FlaIronMind** · 05-08-2011, 06:53 PM

Outstanding work lately brother and, yep...the car is damn fine.

**IronCharles** · 05-08-2011, 10:35 PM

Still killing it, I see!

Best of luck with the physical therapy, Jim. Hope you get back to 100% asap!

**Sillybubba** · 05-09-2011, 03:10 AM

That car is diesel, like you. Way to work!

**righter** · 05-09-2011, 03:57 AM

Very nice ride! Looks like a lot of fun!

Best of luck today at your Dr appt. I may be seeing mine too for my shoulder.

Injury sucks, but I suppose it's just a part of the lifestyle.

Have a great day!

. I remember the vid you posted of the other when you were having the HP tested. You got anything planned like that for this one?

Great news, Jim. Just keep following the docs orders. My dad is currently going through physio for his shoulder. He has been doing everything he is supposed to do, and is making great progress. He has no goal of destroying the iron though... just the other old men on the golf course

No immediate plans to have it Dyno'd, but I already swapped out the stock exhaust, intake and put in a performance tune.

Here's a couple vids:

Thank guys.

Hoping I can squat tomorrow, but I still have a lot of shoulderpain.....

Lisa made me a great dinner. I'm stuffed.

So energy won't be a problem, that's for sure.

**Meatpants** · 05-09-2011, 05:30 PM

Solid work Jim. I am glad to see you sticking with it, and getting good results.

Has he done any ultra sounding to the shoulder?

**mharrislove** · 05-09-2011, 06:39 PM

IN for squat monster sighting...

**-=FLEX=-** · 05-10-2011, 06:00 AM

All I did today was squats.

Nothing really epic to report, but given my recent shoulder and lower back issues I think it went OK.

All reps on all sets were slow, controlled, balls to the floor with a pause at the bottom (no bouncing).

Squats

Bar x whatever
135 x 10
135 x 10
225 x 8
225 x 8
275 x 6
275 x 6
315 x 3
315 x 3
345 x 2
365 x 1

With Belt & Wraps

385 x 1
405 x 2
435 x 1
455 x 1
405 x 2

That's it. Might try to work in some hams & calves tomorrow.

Happy Tuesday

**litljay** · 05-10-2011, 06:09 AM

Wow, that's a sh!tload of work right there.

Good job working through the shoulder issues you have Jim. Bar positioning must have been painful. Epic job today.

Thanks guys.

Got an e-mail today reminding me that I registered for an all day class tomorrow to get some Professional Development Credits that I need. So I had to cancel my physio appt. and won't be training tomorrow. *sigh*

The next appointment I could get was Monday, and I'll be back at the gym Thursday morning.
