+3 on the recovery Ted.
How was that diagnosed? Did you have symptoms? In October of 2015 I was helping a friend fill his Colorado moose tag near Montezuma. We were camped just below the tree line. On day six I woke up in the night with no pain but breathing rapidly and in a bit of a panic. I blamed it on altitude and/or propane heat. One month later I was in middle Colorado hunting elk at about 9k and the same thing happened....I chalked it off as altitude sickness. This past fall 2016 I was to return to Colorado two times. One to hunt Antelope in October the other would be a 3rd season hunt for mule deer. I talked to my family practitioner about my two incidences in 2015 and he prescribed Diomox.....no problems ever occurred out west this fall with a total of 14 days spent in Colorado. One month later December 14th I was awakened from my sleep with shallow breathing and a flutering irregular heartbeat....Missouri elevation so altitude sickness it is not. A trip to the ER and a follow up visit to a Cardiologist would follow in the next 2 days. X-Ray....Echo-cardiogram....Angio-plasti....Cat-scan The Echo revealed the aneurysm first The Angio-plasti and Cat-scan was just for more detailed pictures to allow the surgeon to study my Aorta and order the correct synthetic prosthetic graft. 20 days from waking up with symptoms in Missouri to open heart surgery at St Francois Medical Center in Cape Girardeau Missouri by Dr Jones. He cut out my badly expanded aorta and he replaced it with the synthetic graft. 8 to 10 weeks from now I hope to return to normal life.

Elliptical: 15min
3x5:
BP, Rows, Standing press
3x5:
dips, weighted sit-ups, calf raises, chin-ups.
Treadmill intervals 25minutes.
Used to worry about them quitting making the stuff, now I don't care if they do. But if you insist then order up a WT Rye.

Sounds like you dodged a big one Ted. Good luck with the rehab and recovery.

Got my new squat cage off the barge yesterday and bolted it together, as well as a bench rated to 1k lbs. Old one was getting a bit wobbly. Squats, bench, and row 5x5 yesterday. Need more calories and nutrients as I get higher up in weight.

3mile dog walk/backpack hike. Your dog carries your backpack? That is awesome.

You think it is me doing all this 3 and 4x crap? A happy Dog has a purpose. You may think it is awesome, but it is nothing more than me doing my part to keep them happy.
They also do windows. Not that well I admit, but I have always admired effort, so I don't come down on them all that hard. A little, but not much.
Addition: They also have a problem with that bosu ball, but it is fun to watch them try. Think perhaps you could video yourself and post it up here? I could let them watch and get a handle on proper technique.

Think perhaps you could video yourself and post it up here? Dude. There are dozens of unauthorized videos of my workouts taken by young women, all over the internet. Google it. Did cardio today, intervals on stairs, then bike. 825 calories in 60 minutes. I also saw a guy wearing what is likely the gayest garment ever worn. A wife-beater hoody.

Thanks, I will and the Dogs will feel more comfortable knowing others of their kind are doing the same. Appreciate the quick response, knew I could count on you.

No worries, anything for you. If you can't find the videos, Google "glorious glutes."
Just don't try watching with the dogs, that'd be creepy.

3 mile hike with ~ 50 lb load. Foot felt good. Got a trainer for my bike (weather has been abysmal) but have not yet hooked myself up to the hamster wheel with any seriousness.
Cyn wants to get a gym membership. I'm game. Now that the house is done-ish I could really benefit from some lifting.
Foot working > anything else to report
The CENTER will hold.
