Back operation tomorrow

[White_Lie]

That's a good point, a swim should be good for it, although a bit chilly!

Footy stadium pool. Lovely temperature.
That's the back of the newest SCG grandstand behind the pool. Best pool ever.
A few laps and a good stretch seems to have done the trick today.

Another swim + stretch today @ the footy stadium pool. Back feeling better, SIJ decent. Another week of swimming before any weights tho.

Been doing my stabilising & rehab stuff for two weeks and its feeling good. Im actually standing up straight.
Had a little BW session yesterday & pulled up well (stretched and warmed down properly too)

13 bosu squats

that circuit 6 times, with a 30 rest after each cycle.

Made this for my brothers yard at his new place, a house-warming gift of sorts... Pallet bench

 

[spartacus]

tuarus, are you going to have a go at clean and press this year?

Sort of bad that first and second place is held by oldies.

Its not in my plans at the moment mate. Garry Jack still giving me a little grief, laying off the heavy stuff for the time being.

 

[spartacus]

fair enough, going heavy is not wise unless body is right.

[spartacus]

just curious, how heavy clean and press reps?

 

[taurus]

Another good sesh last night, trained with my wife for the 1st time in ages. After a small discussion about the music, it went well.

I did

6 x rope climbs
3 x 22 bosu squats
3 x 20 one leg squat (each leg)
6x15 overhand chinups
6 x 3 muscle ups.

 

[taurus]

just curious, how heavy clean and press reps?

87kg (i think) bar = 8kg, plus 2 x 22kg plates, plus 2 x 15kgs and 2 x 2.5kg plates.
I work up to that in my 3rd set, then stay with that for another 3 sets, or drop off the 2.5kg plates for the last one or two sets if I feel im moving around too much. With my history, i need to keep it strict as. I dont want any more back injuries.

 

[spartacus]

strong Taurus.
