Greg's Negative Adventures

Starting up a log at the request of mschatz.

I basically workout like a retard and just do whatever I feel like doing. I do have goals, but I do a shitty job at achieving them because I never have a set routine.

About a month ago I messed my back up deadlifting. I hardly deadlift, and I had a contest coming up on 6/16 that had a deadlift, so I planned on doing some sub-max deadlifts just to get the feel for them. I had only 455 on the bar, pulled it for a single easily. Go to do it again a few minutes later, and about an inch off the floor my back popped louder than a mother fucker. My friend heard it from at least 10 feet away over the music playing and the other people int he gym. I instantly got a tingling sensation down my leg that lasted for a couple seconds. A few minutes later the pain kicked in. My doctor thinks I slightly ruptured a disc in my back and wanted me to get an MRI. He also prescribed me pain killers and an anti-inflammatory. My insurance company's policy is that I have to get an x-ray before an MRI, so by the time I got the x-ray and my doctor got the results, I wasn't in pain anymore so I decided against getting the MRI. Probably a stupid idea, but whatever. So basically the last few weeks I haven't really done any real training, and I am feeling very week, especially in my legs. I am also kind of afriad to deadlift now. The other day I pulled 225 just to see how it felt, and although there was no pain at all, I was too afraid to go heavier.

Ok, to the training..

I think you're being a little hard on yourself with that log title.

I'll change it when I grow like 6 inches and gain 60lbs so I can be competitive in the lightweight class :-)

That or when I get to be strong like tom mutafis or craig cruze

Obviously if you have any radiating pain or burning you should get that MRI and if your company is paying you should get one every day

Dex likes: that this log exists.
Dex hates: that it has injuries in it.

Thanks guys.


Wednesday 6/13 - recovery

Weight: 181. I ate really bad yesterday so I'm pretty bloated again today. I was REALLY bloated last night. I went on the scale and weighed 190....took a crap and peed for about 2 minutes straight, got back on the scale and I was 182....and I still felt really bloated.

Exercise bike: 30 minutes. Wore a sweatshirt so I could sweat some of this bloat away

Foam roller: upper back, lats, hips, quads, hams, calves

Card tearing: 28 cards long ways x 2.
My wrists have gotten much weaker since I started wearing wrist wraps on over head pressing and front squatting. I also need to start doing levering again. I used to be able to lever a 12lbs sledge easily with both hands....the other day I levered my 8lbs sledge just to see if the strength was still there, and I had trouble doing it strictly.
