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? Your comments are normally fine until you get into the sexual innuendos. And then they become a little out there. Like they say, you can BS the fans, but not the players. I think a 'do rag would be post a pic material. Come on, just do it. The less cutting and bondo they have to mess with should be a plus.

Sheesh, bondo is ten year-old technology, they don't use that stuff any more.
You'd think a man of your caliber and erudition would know that.
PS, no innuendo here, those are all true stories. I'd tell you about the three women who accosted me in the hot tub this afternoon, but that'd curl your hair. And yes, I know you don't have any.

OK, one of your better comebacks. Been awhile, I thought perhaps you had slipped.
Anyway, since you didn't deny the 'do rag possibility. Come on, we won't laugh. Promise....

Never let your glutes rest. That's akin to............ Letting your meat loaf.

Doubt it'd be possible to over-analyze something irreversible like bone fusion surgery... so I think that's wise. Walked 5 this morning. Really need to get revved up for 2018. So far I'm a slacker.

20 minutes on row machine.
Circuit program x3 of each of the following with no rest between exercises but 1 minute rest / water break after each circuit: -Deadlift clean and press with 50 pound bar (10) -Bicep curls 50 pound bar (15) -squats 50 pound bar (50-60 reps each time with some slow some quicker mimicking body pump routine) -pushups (20) -oblique crunches (20) -walking lunges with 50 pound bar (30) -tricep dips (25) -farmers walk across room and up two flights of stairs and back with 35s in each hand
10 minutes of stretching (i have found as of the last few years a little less intensity and 10-15 minutes post-workout stretching are requirements for me to avoid injury).

Even Elvis needs an occasional night off. You'll wear the blue suede shoes right offa that critter. Had a weather window, did my 27-mile conditioning ride. Whipped my ass, but I feel great as usual.

Stairmaster--20min
Deadlifts x8 with adding weight
Dumbell curls x3 Overhead press x3
Leg machine calf presses x3--Knee pain has left since I started working on the calfs. Interesting discovery.
Back and knee stretches--seems as if the bulging disk has decided to reside in its' proper place. Thigh going numb is almost a thing of the past. Almost....
