so havnt posted here in awhile, some new/diff stuff is going on in my life
havnt put any weight back since the cut for the meet. after the meet ive had finals and such so i had lots of caffeine during that time. i started working at a S
well that last post was cut off back then. but started working at a sports performance facility in the summer, then crashed my car and no way to get to there anymore. but i learned alot from them it was nice. also in the summer i started playing rugby and got a sprained acl and a bone bruise on my tibia (tibial plateau contusion?)in june. i pretty much stopped lifting since i stopped working/got hurt. i stayed off my knee for a good while then started slowly getting back to rugby again in the fall and played the last 3 or 4 games of the season and hurt my knee again on the last game trying to cut in a diff direction (knee gave out and heard a pop but no swelling). that was about a month ago. i thought i was good on thanksgiving eve when i bear hugged my buddy and my knee gave out again. bah.
anyways getting back into everything slowly.

knees still crap and now my right shoulders kinda off too. cant fully bring my arm overhead. feels like a shoulder impingement but idk? cant do press but i can do pullups but i cant do it from a dead hang if my shoulders are retracted its ok.
so been doing 531 for a bit got to the 2nd cycle but havnt been too consistent because of work and rugby/injuries. now think im just gonna do thing similar to the way i did them before at temple when training on my own…
