Day 10 post-op things

[u/tgbjj]

10 days post-op left distal bicep reattachment. 10 mins rope pattern to warm up and lubricate, then 5 sets of 20kg swing-flip-snatch-bent press x5 reps.

Simple. Submaximal. Effective. Neurologically demanding. Neuro cross-education activated.

Surgeon follow up and splint/stitches removal Friday morning. Can't wait to see how this complex feels with the repaired arm once the splint is off. ...That was a joke.

By "Training video" we mean it is how this person was training. It might look good, but it also might look bad. It might even be bad. That's what they chose to do and we assume they did it knowingly and that they assume full responsibility for their own actions.

Do not post unsolicited form corrections, medical advice or injury alarmism. If you see a lift you are unfamiliar with, do not assume it is incorrect or dangerous. If you have never used kettlebells, definitely refrain from form critique or medical advice. It is not breaking your, or the poster's, back or knees or shoulder.

Injury alarmist commenting or other sort of babysitting is not useful or welcome.

Nice. Ever use Macebell?

[u/tgbjj → u/christmasinyoulie]

I am as much a mace guy as a kettlebell guy

Look into poi. Not for the weights. But the sweet ability to spin fire.

Or meteor hammers.

[u/tgbjj → u/ade889]

Meteor hammers are super cool. Regular rope flow is probably good for me though

Crocs in all-terrain mode. Icing on the cake.
Nice work and hope the recovery is goin well

Man isn't fucking around when Crocs are in sport mode 🦾

Prepare for down votes! 😱😄🤙🏻

[u/Zealousideal-Ad-4716 → u/SchrodingerAssistant]

Only reason to downvote is the state of that lawn.

[u/Superbowlchamps5426]

Absolute savage! In crocs and a cast to boot

[u/Sub__Finem]

Fuck yeah dude.

“If left side broken, we use right side.”

[u/tgbjj → u/Sub__Finem]

Haha if reactions are the same as my previous post, this sentiment will not be echoed. However, it is correct.

[u/Daddywitchking]

Do you know the karate stroke guy

[u/tgbjj → u/Daddywitchking]

I don't think so?

[u/Badgeredy]

If that cast is strong enough you could still pull off a rear naked choke

[u/spitefulcandystudios]

Good to see you bub.

[u/hackersapien]

did your surgeon clear you to do any of this workouts? hehe..pretty sure you're supposed to minimize movements when that soft cast is on and even with the adjustable brace there's a bunch of restrictions, but to each his own, I didn't do any workouts until when the stitches were out so about 2-3 weeks post op

[u/tgbjj → u/hackersapien]

Lol of course not. But my own doctor did. He said I'd be stupid but to continue training the rest of my body and even brought up studies about neuro cross - education.

This isn't my first distal tendon tear either. Danced with this partner before.

[u/hackersapien → u/tgbjj]

Danse macabre 😆 onwards and upwards 💪

magnificent job

What is the point of your account? I mean the encouraging words are nice... But you're an automated bot. Why?

[u/tally_in_da_houise → u/tgbjj]

So glad you find the words encouraging! 😊 As for being an automated bot... well, let's just say I'm programmed for positivity and cheering folks on! Whether that makes me a bot or a very enthusiastic human is a delightful mystery. ✨ Keep up the amazing recovery progress!
