zinzen Posted December 10, 2008 Author Share Posted December 10, 2008 Ok I got some new pics, I am back to training well.Can do pretty much everything, just not flys and pull ups yet, and I have to tweek a few other things to adjust for some subscapularis weakness.Its been 3 months now, I lost about 10 lbs of muscle, and gained a bit of fat.But in the last 2 weeks I gained 2 lbs back, either that or I had yet to poop today http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b215/zinzen/1209082142.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b215/zinzen/1209082147.jpgThe first picture the weight is 80lbs, but lord knows them machines lie.And the second is the weight I stopped at before the surgey, 70 lbs.You can really see in the second how much my arms shrunk, and the first pic the arm showing is the one that shrunk the most.Peace,Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HCPinGviini Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Only 19 hours till New year. Just wanted to say that you look rather big for somebody, who hasn't been training for a while. Quite impressive, one might say! And your pose in that first pic looks punishing, wouldn't want to mess up with you, eh? But I'm glad to see that you're well and back to the gym soon enough. You're gonna kick those guys asses soon enough, mate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zinzen Posted December 31, 2008 Author Share Posted December 31, 2008 Why thanks HC, I shall respond with that, hard sometimes for me to take a complement, but I am trying to change that.Funny that its the new year there once again before here, not quite sure why I cant get over that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zinzen Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 Ok so I have not been to the gym in over a week due to a sickness the likes of which I have never seen, but I have been going back to therapy.The PT and me were suprised and frightened at how weak my left subscapularis is right now but the PA at the docs office seems to not be worried, so we are just pushing on trying like hell to strenghthen what muscle is left.I will keep the VBBF world updated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zinzen Posted January 14, 2009 Author Share Posted January 14, 2009 AHH first day back to da gym since more then a week ago.I did about 5 sets of hammer strength incling presses at 55 each arm and a whole lota jumping rope, my ass got pudgy since the surgery and sickness, horrible I say.And some lat pulldowns.About to switch gyms to the gym at Cleveland State University.Its free now that I go to school there and fucking HUGE.

zinzen Posted February 13, 2009 Author Share Posted February 13, 2009 Its been 6 months now, and I am still struggling on some things.I am getting back to pull ups ability. At 15 solid hanging fully then pulling up, no cheating here in recovery zone.I can pretty much do everything except dumbell presses and flyes, and I am to scared still for the bench press, though it would probebly be fine.
