Sounds just about as good as my food

Plain chicken, plain steamed carrots and a plain potatoe. Back to yams next week. At least they are somewhat still appealing. The highlight of my day is my TBLSPN of PB

Does your dog keep up the whole way? You're so lucky. I used to run about 5-6 miles a day and wished I had a dog to run with. You ever go hiking in the mountains anywhere?

Snowing... yikes, where do you live Tank?
Good to hear your shoulder is feeling good, especially in light of the $17,000 bill... OMG that sucks!!!

Posted by: fantasma62

Hey Tank, saw the picture of the scar....GRRREAT..

, that's exactly what I needed to see

.

So a question from a worried Tony. Do you remember what it felt like to have a torn rotator? I asked GDub the same question because he had a tear too. I am wondering if the symptoms that my shoulder is presenting are those of a tear or just bursitis (which I would much rather have)...
Take care and keep up the good work....

I looked at the scar pic again and i must be missing something . Where did they put the gold ?

Posted by: shutupntra1n

SNOW!

Lucky stiff

I love snow. I don't even ski or snowboard. I just like jogging when it's flurries. Although no cardio for me til next fall I still intend on walking around in it. I wish I had snow. I'm in NJ and we are just getting the leaves on the ground. It's what I call "Halloween Weather" which is nice but doesn't last long

yep!!!!!
I'll up date this today after i get back from the gym,
same routine this morn, 30 min cardio, some abs,shoulder movements,rt side bi/tri.
Oct 20 th i had another doc appt....this went very well

he couldnt believe the strength levels in the rt shoulder, since i have yet to start any real rebuilding movements, he was impressed Going to start some things on my own, Last thurs the P/T had me do some things that were really easy, yet i felt some pain[good i might i add] in the r/c area.
i can start doing some machine movements, rows,very light chest press/shoulder press.
i also believe that i can start to curl more, the doc is more concerned about the r/c strength. i'll write up a routine today.
This weekend my wife and stepdaughter went away for a small relaxing poolside hotel stay, when i tried swimming, i felt no pain what so ever

my diet really sucked farts this weekend

....the diet is a must and is going to be key for the next 2 mths as well as the cardio.

same ole story

Nov, 3 rd 2004!!!!!!! the day after election!!!!!thank frickin god!!!
Shoulder is feeling fantastic!!!! i was pushing in the rehab movements too much, now its just m/w/fri. tue/ thurs are make up bdy parts, even did some wall push ups, lilttle by little, i'll move away from the wall to put more stress on the chest and shoulder area!!!

My morning cardio routine is now pretty basic, i powerwalk for an hour up and down some good steep hills, leaving the hiit cardio for after my wt w-o's, this has worked the best in the past!
As of late, my diet has really suck donkey turds,i have ben doing alot of traveling, Subways worked great for Jarod, but i'm not Jarod. I'll spend alittle extra time to bring food on the road from now on.. i used to do this prior to a show, and now is no different, i'm just getting lazy

so my main focus now turns to the diet/shoulder/and then cardio!!!!!

Posted by: Tank316

Nov 4th 2004
Cardio this a.m. abs/some light back[cant wait to say heavy back again,LOL.
p/t at 7:15, and i have a friggin cold

-----------------------------------------------------
Ok then, i'm on the last of my shoulder movements from the therapist, nothing more to do now but just strengthen it

I truly cant believe how good it feels, although there are times when i move it just right, i can feel some pain

bdy wt is at 230

Trust me when i say this........weight training is the shit for burning fat, cardio and diet alone doesnt cut the mustard!!!
I'm down for one p/t session a week now, 7 wks advanced in protocol.

ummmmmm, i am a brain dead idiot, dont agree, i beating my head with a hammer as we speak..............i truly thought that it had been 4 mths since my surgery, my wife was kind enough to tell me this morn that it has only been 3......

i have been so focused on the rehab and things are going so great i totally lost track of things!!!So i made a promise to her not to start training really hard till the 5th month

but hey, with the way i keep track of things that will be next wk!

Posted by: Tank316

Nov 12 2004
back and bi's this am as well as shoulder movements, followed by 20 min HIIT cardio.
4 days of long duration cardio,40 min=450 cal burned/session,crosstrainer. i varied the incline,but kept the resistance between 8-11..this doesnt include the 3/ 60 min walks through the woods training the dog either....
next wk i train everything p/rr/sh , i'll go through the movements light and for the feel for the shoulder,i'll train smart, but i have to do more then cardio, for one reason, i'm going insane not training and the other is to get more cals burned!!!

Posted by: Tank316

ummmm,thinking about getting a bdy ft test done as well as getting some pics taken.....

but i wont post them.....hey, you dont wanna toss up your food do ya!!!!!LOL

Posted by: fantasma62

Mr. Tank......

Good morning. How've you been? I am so happy that you are going back to full tilt with your shoulder and are ready to kick some ass.

Anyway, I wanted to thank you, although not personally because you live far from me and this is the closest for now, for your words while I was $httng a brick while I thought I had done extensive damage to myself. I read your journal as much as I could while I've been out of the "loop" resolving some family issues.

Have a great day....

Ahhh, no...

I get enough time for wts and not much cardio. BUT, that changes around April. My father is finally getting rid of the cows, [ no more milking] and my client load will drop to nothing cause N,Wis peeps are lazy...

I will admit that when lifes takes over, theres just no Tank time. But i have committed myself to a goal by Oct. 25lbs for a fat loss, when i hit that goal, I'm going to show in April. Masters only.

Yes, grass fed!
Were in the process of buying more beef to raise, milk prices were great for the last year or two, but as of 2 months ago, they SUCKed.
And theres so many larger dairy farms being built, 40 head of cows compared to 1,500 to 2,000...Its a no win deal.
Anyways.. I have kept my strength leels though, i'm happy about that, but i need to drop some chub. Off to do some morning cardio!

Theres a small issue at work that has my mind in a whirl wind right now.
Anyways..
Went to my stepsons place 4 hours east of home. the drive killed my back.
arrived @ 12;30 went for a hr long walk to help out my back, stretched and then took an hour nap. My cheat meal was a Chi town deep dish pizza, NO!!! not the whole thing, Just one slice.
It helped that i wasnt feeling 100%.

Its a 3 inch round piece of hard foam BFS high school athletes use.
Mine is pretty soft, i'm about 1.5 inches from a normal bench motion when i use it.
Its been helping my shoulders stay healthier.

Alright, thus far I'm sold on AAEFX and the FWSS..
The most important thing i noticed ASAP was the recovery time between my sets. This leads to an increase of INTENSITY.
Second thing I noticed was the increase in the pump form the Nytric EFX PRO.
Kre-Alkalyn Pro gave me everyhing I desire for a pre-work formula. It seemed that the strenght was never ending, i even added a few xtra sets here and there due to the recovery time.
