Looking good so far, Gary.![]()

Looking great Gary!! Good luck with the legs, don't get over zealous!
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

everythings looks like it's coming back nicely...I hope legs go well, be careful!!![]()
Awesome job on the bike!!! Take it easy with your back, you can always work light and around the injury, You know what I mean my Friend, just take care!!!

It's all a process, G. Look at it this way. A mere mortal would've probably added 8 inches, sat around doing nothing, and accepted it as their new way of life once everything was fully healed. You have controlled the damage, taken an early return path and gotten back to your routine, modified though it may be. You're still WAY ahead of the pack.

start w/100 next time
PowerTec Squats -
90 x 12
2 sets 180 x 12
Don't think I'll go any heavier just yet. The amount /type of "pain" felt wasn't any worse than when I'm just standing or walking but I'll ease into it anyway. I fell more pain when I just stand with all my weight on my right leg than I did doing the squats .![]()
Vertical leg Press -
3 sets 125 x 15
About the same "pain" as Squats. Going light as long as I need to.
Lying Leg Curls -
2 sets 45 x 15
45 x 12
Went light here too. Too much potential for re-injury here .
