T got me motivated to hit the forearms i skipped this morning. Eating like a king today at work brisket, pulled pork, ribs back feels good already from the thrashing this morn.

 

[jacked391]

I trained strong man events yesterday. No off weekend for me! Gonna work on bench in an hour or so

 

[turbobusa]

Very cool. Nice arm day for me . I forgot to tell you guys I'm green lighted for very light chest and back. More like high reps going through the motion. I'll take it> gotta start some where. Hit a big 65lbs for a set of ten on flat bench ! LOl
Been here and worse over the years. Just glad to get something started. So i'm about to goin to either 2on1 off or 4 on 2 off soon.
Depends on how much training out put on the rehabbing muscle groups days.
Have a great finish to the weekend and a great week coming.
One more thing. Good thoughts and positive vibs for the Godfather himself
The brick. Thx , T...

I am still around I just haven't changed my training. Hit chest and tri's today. I am still doing forced reps heavier weights with the spot. Still making great gains. Can't complain good to see you guys are still tearing up the iron

 

[thebrick]

Turbo… man!! that's great to hear you got the thumbs up to train chest and back for a light one. That will feel good just moving those muscles again and getting some blood pumped through there. Very happy to hear this. The time will go faster now on your way to full recovery. Muscle memory big guy.

No training today for me. No water or food after midnight so I am wrapping up work and focusing on my next task tomorrow. And that is (hopefully) a good report and get this behind me. The last week has seemed like a month long, seriously.

Love my brothers here.

[Alinshop]

Did manage to train yesterday. Hit some chest and shoulders. Higher reps just to pump it out and help my mood. Felt good walking out of the gym after it was done. Need to thank Mrs Brick for chasing me out of the house and focusing on something positive. Gonna try some back after lunch. Don't wanna look like some shriveled old fucker on the OR table lol

I would feel the same way!:headbang: Just catching up, and it looks like you having surgery tomorrow? My prayers are with you brutha.

 

[Ironbuilt]

Good morning brothers. Thank you all for the good wishes sent my way!
Procedure went well. They went up in that ureter, took the biopsy and zapped the tumor with the laser. I was told it was about 1/2" x 1/2" in size, I'm lucky to catch this early. They put a stent in the tube to keep it open while it heals. Got home last night very sleepy and a bit nauseated from the anesthesia. Managed to eat some toast, fruit and yogurt because I was so damn hungry, hit the bed and slept like a rock. Feel good today. Its kinda raw feeling up in there, but that's OK. No lifting for a week. Just waiting on that biopsy report. I'd be lying if I said I was not nervous about what that will say. Dr. said hopefully he will have that Friday. What it says will determine what happens next.

Good to see the men of iron are making some noise. You guys rock.
