Walked 5 miles, then rode a tough 12 with my buddy. He's had the flu so we kept it short.
You doing the ankle fusion in January, SP?
The CENTER will hold.

No, I'm having a surgeon do it for me. Ha! Yep, next week as a matter of fact. I'm really looking forward to it.

Tiny Elvis is a hero.
I got hit with that flu for what seemed to be 5 weeks. I need to get cardio back in order. However, Strength is doing well. I think right now I am at a lifting plateau and need to shake it up.
I really don't need to get stronger but I want to get freak strength back. So I am continuing.
Yesterday I did 315 inclines, 150 curls and 525 Deads. I need to get the Deadlift weight up. I am thinking front squats.
I need to get the cardio wolf going. I need to get two two hours straight by June.
Otherwise stuff is good.

Stairmaster 30min
Deadlifts, standing press, squats, seated rows, calf machines, more deadlifts.
Finished on Stairmaster for 10minutes
Ok, now best of luck with the ankle and keep the back of the gown tied up. There are other patients the nurses have responsibilities for, and they can't be playing grab ass with you and give them the attention they deserve. It will only be for a few days. so try....

EMOM again today.
1 minute rounds & 10 rounds per.
Exercise Weight Reps
kettlebell swings 45 lbs 15
burpees body 12
in and out crunches body 18
skull crushers 45 lbs 20
Turkish getups 20 lbs 3L & 3R
6 Turkish getups in a minute might not sound like much but it kicks my butt.
What would Porter Rockwell do?

Cardio yesterday, lower body today.
Thanks Harry, your concern is touching. Just like what the nurses will be doing as they crowd around my bed, ignoring the other patients.
When I had shoulder surgery they all "worked overtime."

Otherwise stuff is good. Not sure what your definition of "freak strength" is, but I'm thinking you have to be pretty close. Those DL numbers make my back hurt just reading them...

Besides working you shoud also consider dieting, last year i lost a great deal of weight just by eating healthy.

Did lower body today. Goblet squats, back squats. hamstring curls, glute kick-backs, one-legged stuff on the Bosu for balance, and abs. No dieting required, I'm down to 198.

I eat pretty healthy- lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, lean meat, etc; but no dieting- I consume a lot of calories in a day and won’t shy away from foods like cheeseburgers, pizza (and IPA’s too). I’ve found putting in 30-ish miles a week let’s me ignore calorie counting or forbidden foods- much easier that way.
3.5 very chilly and blustery miles for Tiny E and I this evening

Update on ankle surgery, I postponed it for a short time. Got a second opinion from another surgeon who uses a different technique that's much less invasive, arthroscopic vs a large open incision and screws to fasten the bones vs screws and a plate. Everything I've read says arthroscopic is the way to go, just waiting on the CT scan to make sure it can be done arthroscopically.
So Harry, you'll have to put up with my comments for a bit longer.
As in, Jump rope? Seriously? What's next, a couple sweet tats and a 'do rag?

less invasive always has a nice ring to it
