Oh Yeah! Transformation Contest: UberBerzerker

UberBerzerker · 03-25-2007, 08:59 PM

Let me just start out by saying I don't know how much of a transformation/workout I'll be able to do in the next couple of weeks. Last Monday some douche bag ran full speed into me playing soccer and I sustained the most painful knee to the back of my calf/kneed I have EVER had. It's a week later and it's still swollen and EXTREMELY painful to the touch, I can't even walk on it or straighten it out completely. Going to call the doctor tomorrow as this is the same calf I tore a few years back, so I'm concered it's more than just a bruised muscle at this point.

My shoulder pain I thought was from a recent shingles out break (which you can still see on the left side of my back) turned out not to be, so I'll be keeping an eye on that as well. lol, to say I haven't had the luck o' the Irish this month would be an understatement

Now that my excuses are out of the way,

a bit about myself. I'm not as dedicated to working out as I should be, same with diet. That said, this log will not include EVERY single thing I eat, but I try to eat relatively cleanly with a few cheats here and there

I'll put up some workout examples, but no max'ing out will be done - I don't care about that sort of thing. I try to do a balanced workout of legs/back a couple times a week with upper body/core a couple other nights. I haven't been doing much cardio recently, not really sure why, but I need to get back on my bicycle or doing some inclined hill sprints. Guess that's why I need the transformation log to inspire me!!!

Once my calf is better I plan to get back to that. I'll put together some workouts in a day or so. I play soccer on Sundays and Mondays, so I have to keep that in mind as far as work out schedule goes.

6' 3''
210lbs

please do - you can take a pic of me with my newly installed black geriatric compression sock, crutches, and slew of pills

Dr. Hottie said my injury wasn't TOO severe, but i had to get the swelling down in the next day or so else I will have to go to an orthpaedic for some needle test bull**** to verify I don't have compartment syndrome. I gotta stay off my feet for at least the next couple of days, so I will not be updating my log with any workout stuff. Though it may be fun to see what I type after being jacked up on Lortabs and Ambien....lol

you're probably right, D-monster. lol.

on a lighter note: When at the drug store, buying all my **** (crutches, pain/sleeping pills, compression sock) the kids asks me: ''how you doing, buddy, you're doing ok today?'' I was like "uh yeah", glancing at my purchases, "except if I was REALLY ok i wouldn't be here spending 100 bucks on this stuf, right?"

lol

I already know where you live....

Ahhh...I'll be following Uber. Believe it or not, I was a defensive mid-fielder in high school. Granted, I was about 70lbs lighter then. However, I had a cool nickname, "Hacker." I loved putting the hurt on people.

right on! Unfortunately, it'll probably be a boring ride

According to my in home Dr. (wife) it looks like my season has come to an abrupt end. Guess I can focus on healing, cardio, and some core stability stuff.

Day 2 on the couch, no additional injuries taken today from watching tv and surfing the internet! YAY! The swelling looks to me like it's almost gone, but the muscle is still EXTREMELY painful to stretch or flex. Feels like an massive cramp that just won't subside. On a lighter note: my landscaper of a neighbor spent all last weekend digging up a portion of his yard to put in a sprinkler system *I think* Today, I was awakened by a back ho digging up this same spot because of a massive water leak - our street had a small stream running through it! LMAO!! So, I got to watch a few guys work on that today, I should have been paid like a city worker

I ate junk today from Arby's for lunch, but I only had some Chocolate Oats LIFE cereal for breakfast. Steak for dinner.

Yesterday was oat/honey ISS bar for breakfast, chicken wing/fingers lunch and 2 chicken breasts for dinner. Today is the last day of eating garbage ( hopefully, I'm pretty weak that way)

UberBerzerker · 04-01-2007, 06:45 PM

A couple more days gone by, still swelling and lots of pain in the leg. Took a picture of the bruising behind the knee tendon just for fun. No serious working out has been done as of yet. Cycling/cardio/running is definately out of the question also.

This weekend wasn't a total loss, got a quick workout in today after getting back from a 2 day long bachelor party up in the mountains. Good time, lots of booze and smoking, my kinda blow-out!

Did some shoulders/lats workout until my the swelling started to get a bit too much. Plus I hit the shin of my bad leg on the motherf$cking bench....g$ddamn that hurt.
DB Shoulder press
front db raises
side db raises
lat pull down

This weekend's diet, as in keeping with bachelor partying, consisted of steaks, potatoes, and beer, with some Jim Beam for dessert

Today I had some eggs and toast before my workout, and chicken wings for dinner. After my workout, I tried 1 scoop of Banana flavored ISS M3. Not too bad, I think I need another scoop though to make the flavoring come out properly.

only sometimes. But I work out where it's warm. You should try it some time, then you wouldn't have to wear those ski gloves and headwarmers!!

UberBerzerker · 04-06-2007, 07:20 AM

no workouts as of yesterday. Maybe will try some core workout tonight. Swelling has gone down on the calf, but it's still painful and stiff to stretch and walk on. I've been eating an ISS natural bar for midmorning snack and sometimes the large chocolate one for a snack in the afternoon. Diet has been decent, for me at least, but I need to buckle it down a bit more. I downloaded the cut-diet and am reading some interesting ideas in that, maybe I'll give it a try.

UberBerzerker · 04-12-2007, 02:01 PM

partially torn calf muscle and now I just found out yesterday I have a nice little stress fracture in my tibia (on the same leg as the calf injury) Shoulder is STILL bothering me, and my wife will have a hard time examining me as she broke her thumb in two places snowboarding this weekend....jeeezus we suck.

I lose.

yeah, I'm here, what's new buddy? It's been a ****tty month or so, and I've not spent much time online even being couch-bound with inuries. Someone stole my credit card info and ran up a shopping spree. got it taken care of and didn't cost me anything, but goddamn what a pain, and I haven't surfed much internet since. That coupled with the straight month of weddings and bachelor parties, I've been a busy busy bee.

I did actually work out on Thursday! haha, just some lite db shoulder work

UberBerzerker · 05-05-2007, 09:05 PM

good to hear everything goin' well for ya. Best of luck on that cycle - glad you could use that CS. It does have a peculiar taste that is oddly likeable, doesn't it?

Sorry to hear the new stuff tastes worse...wtf is with that? You tell Crowler about that yet? maybe you got a imporperly mixed batch?
