aj_rock Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 read m.r.i.ed as married and wondered briefly how a wife would decrease knee pains.For shame though! The knee pain was not mentioned in our discussions Quote Why must I put a name on the foods I choose to eat and how I choose to eat them?

aj_rock Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 I think that, when I first read it, I saw it more as 'been and done', not 'current and affecting training'.All the same, depending on how that MRI comes out, training will need to change drastically Quote Why must I put a name on the foods I choose to eat and how I choose to eat them?

aj_rock Posted June 15, 2012 Report Share Posted June 15, 2012 I know how you feel mate. Still feeling the AC strain myself so DL's were a no go.Alluva sudden, in and out of gym in 30 minutes.

Pat G Posted June 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 Visited a couple of gyms in the area immediately around my office. One was old school with aged lifting equipment, 2x squat racks, a 2 minute walk from the office, serviceable but i didn't notice hayuge stacks of plates that will be needed when i finally get my tank on. 2nd was a type of chain gym "World Gym" well equipped, newer, cleaner, more expensive by around $400 a year, 2x power cages, 2x squat racks. Lots of weights.Both had similar rules, no fighting (necessary for this part of town), no dropping weights, no leaving weights unracked. We shall see. Oh yeah, the reason for this scouting event was due to our Corporate gym memberships being cancelled due to non payment of the account. hahaha. Quote "Strength is the cup.

Lachy Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 Which of the gyms is busiest when you go? I hate a busy gym, I want that squat rack! I kinda like the idea of an old school gym, surely they must have the weight plates?Hows your bottom elbow? Will you ever walk again? Quote Battle Log - Facebook Link to comment
Pat G Posted June 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 Neither of them were busy when we were there. From that one experience, much of the much. But i'm not even sure if the company will go for either of them, even with both these gyms being cheaper than the one we were subscribed to before. I've been given a new lease of life. Scans came back showing no damage to my knee at all. A loose patella due to prior injury. So, where is the pain coming from? *shrugs* i dunno, DR doesn't know either. So meds and R&R for the next 10 days. light strengthening exercises allowed. Quote "Strength is the cup. The bigger the cup, the more you can put in" - JDanger Link to comment
Lachy Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 Phew! You know, we were talking about having you put down if you couldn't squat again. Glad to hear all will be well in time. That's pretty awesome that the office pays for your gym. Quote Battle Log - Facebook Link to comment
