You been peeking over my fence, again? I let scuzz have the ugly ones....

Last night...
Driveway run (saw one bear, had to stop and gawk).
Squats - 175X4 (fail), 177X3 (fail), 165X3 (fail)
DL - 240X5
K2E - 10, 9, 8
Box steps onto a sawhorse for fun (and profit) - 20 per side.

53 miles with a bud celebrating his 53rd birthday. Gorgeous scenery, tough route.

I felt great until about mile 35, when I started getting pain on the outside of my right knee. I couldn't apply much pressure with it. The last 15+ miles (much of it uphill) were like 80% left leg. My quad is trashed.

Worrisome.... I've had this same pain but it's been years. It is originally from a tweak it got while backpacking.

Anyway- great workout, great company, great adventure up and over the Coast Range.

Last night we hosted two women from UT Austin participating in the Texas 4000 ride. It's a fund-raiser for cancer research. They're riding from Austin to Anchorage. Yesterday they rode to the top of Pike's Peak.

Kids these days.

PRP Injections in both knees scheduled for
10am this morning

In 48 hours I can hopefully hit the gym

Arthritis from worn-out cartilage? Let us know how it works.

Torn Patellar on both knees with the left being the worst.

I just walked out and I'm all done.

They drew about 100 cy's of blood from my right arm then spun it down in a centrifuge to get about 10 cc's of plasma.

The Dr. then used ultrasound to look at the injuries and guide the injection to view the location to be sure of the fill.

He put 6.5 in the left and the rest of it in my right

I won't b.s. anyone.....it hurt bad....real bad

I'm looking forward to getting this 2 hour trip home over to get some ice on them

As the day moved on the pain has lessened but it's still hard to stand or walk but way better than it was at eleven am this morning

The real test will be when you get back to the gym or other stuff that puts a load on it, keep us posted.

Surely he must have said that in jest. I'm thinking that workout would get most anyone's heart rate and fatigue factor up, if they could even complete all six rounds. Most people can't even do 13 pullups, let alone 6 sets of them.

Dang, I didn't even notice the part where he said 6 rounds. That would be a workout.

1 round is a warmup, 6 is a workout... but Shodd isn't even sweating until he gets to 10 rounds.... The ultimate badass!
