thebrick's - What are you Training Today?

[mass3000]

Thanks for the high praise and yes I am blasting all body parts that I have available. My Ortho just did a arthrogram and it revealed a bankhart shoulder with ALPSA and HAGL separation, like peeling the skin back from a piece of chicken. Talking about a kick in the dick, with the previous standard MRI the supraspinatus tendon had a high grade partial tear which was fixed with scoping and debridement of the cuff. This was Sept 2015, at least I have explanations for the constant pain and lack of progress. Awaiting an authorization for a open surgery....
I'll keep you folks posted....

Took yesterday off after a couple good workouts. Plus the weather was so damn nice! I enjoyed some sun and worked on my vitamin D to boost my immune system. Planning on guns today. Lower back pain is in check and I'm fired up.

Lets have a great Saturday brothers! Sling some iron, break a sweat, have a good laugh, and hug the ones you love. Make it count!

You guys hit it hard today and start the week off slinging some iron.
