Sigh...
It may be a little known fact, but Harleys do not make particularly good dirt bikes if they aren't modified heavily. In my case, my HOG, myself, and a patch of dirt in the median came to an abrupt and violent meeting as a result of a poor judgement call on my part. Net result is the HOG is basically ~OK~. I have to replace the gas tank, front fender, and air cleaner cover. I'm about the same... broken ankle, deeply bruised knees and minor road rash.
I suspect strongly that it will take me a linear year to actually get to the point of being able to squat over 600 again, and right now I can't even consider that, as my leg is presently in a cam-walker boot and will be so for 6 more weeks. I have an appointment with the ortho on the 3rd. Next week, I'm going to start doing upper body; legs are clearly out until December.
On the good news front, I hired a nutritionist last month, had a body fat analysis done, and by following her eating plan, I'm now down to 225 lbs; my bf% is 24% (down from 28% when I started). My goal is to get down to around 190 and then bulk up from there.
Any help/comments from anyone who's "been there, done that" would be greatly appreciated.
