LOL..thanks guys and thank you Radar! I just might take you up on that!! You are all such great people and have really inspired me and helped me over the last few months!
Hit the gym yesterday and did legs. My workouts right now are all about getting back into a regular training routine post injury and post summer laziness! My 2 injuries of the year were lower back muscle tears and my tricep tear that I've talked about. I haven't been able to squat like a big girl or do any heavy weights. The pain has been from doing any motion like bench press, ohp, some of the side raises, cross overs, etc etc....so.....I'm just sort of trying out things I haven't done in months, keeping the weight super low and will be putting together a split from that.
I'm still having difficulty with my squat form but have been taking the advice I got in the weight lifting forum to work on it. I've been doing some foam rolling to help break down some of the scar tissue and increase flexibility in my lower back and hips and have just been practising the form. I'm good without the bar on my back but still having balance issues with the bar.
Diet wise....will be looking at 2000 calories with a 50/30/20 split to start. I may up that slightly but will decide in the next few days. I've been cleaning it up but would like to formally start a meal plan on the weekend. I'll post that up when it's done.
About a month, give or take. I was taking it every day but read a couple recent studies showing that GH levels were comparable in people who did it eod vs ed, so switched it just in the interest of making it last longer and $$. Everything I've read would suggest longer term results, so starting around the 3 month mark and more after so we'll see. Some people I've talked to love it and swear by it and others feel it's a complete waste of $$.
