wow lots of updates sorry I haven't been as active in your log but it's good to see you posting
Good job on the shoulder stretching. Nice to hear legs are progressing as well.
@Slyderkt solid weekend for sure!
Funny story I watched football for years and got burnt out. Stopped watching for about ten years.
Now I love it more. Now I don’t have team. So I don’t have to schedule my life around a teams schedule. I don’t get butt hurt when my team sucks. Now I can watch football and enjoy it for the game. There are a lot of amazing players on different teams. I now give more respect to players and the game.
I am always happy watching ball now.
i do stretches and mobility work now. Then mix in ice and heat.
Yes Sunday games was crazy. Blast to watch.
That’sa good weekend
Nice bro
Ya, we better not talk about my food today.
Breakfast as ok 2 whole eggs. 2 egg whites and 4 turkey sausage.
Blew lunch . Went and voted with wife then had lunch together. Rarely happens. Had a burger and wrinkle fries. We shared small fry.
Dinner I was going to start a fast and sit in the sauna. Nope , got the call I had to take dinner to my 93 year old parents.
We had a chopped salad and thin crust bbq chicken pizza.
Can’t kick my self so I’ll just get back on it tomorrow.
On a good note I am able to doo small circles at 90 degree out to the side. Front raise is about 80 percent of max.
Still feels stiff and a bit sore but at 5 weeks post op. I feel great.
@Slyderkt burger and fries nice
no pics bro?and pizza wow
big time
lets get some food updates tomorrow
food is #1 for recovery bro serious
@Slyderkt first no need to feel stupid, EF family is here to help
otherwise whats the point of having a family if they cant support youyour bpc is 5mg total vial?
so 1ml would be 5mgs right
but can you add 2 ml BAC water? how big is the vial
would be nice to see a picture please
I think I've seen calculators online for the syringe thing
Found a calculator.
Thanks for that advice. I was searching for dosage. searching peptide calculator was perfect.
5mg bpc 157
Add 1 ml Bac water
Dosage 500 mcg
Syringe 1ml or 1cc
Syringe mark 10 = 500mcg
Or I could add 2 ml of bac water and 20 on the syringe would equal same 500 mcg

if you have 5mgs of bpc
then want 500mcg per day
then that will last you 10 days man yes

500 mcg bpc 157
500 mcg tb 500
And 2 iu HGH
300 test split dose 2 week
That amount of test is my trt. Keeps my about 900.
Saw Dr Monday. He was amazed at my range of motion. Still can’t raise my hand behind my back. I only get to about even with my belt. Still no weights. But we added some new stretches.
I have manageable pain. I feel great all things considered.
My right knee is screaming at my shoulder to get better fast. Leg have never been worked this hard. Legs 3 days a week is rough on that old knee.
I am working on that
Today should be
Meal 1
2 whole eggs and 2 egg white.
Meal 2 6 oz chicken breast
cream of wheat
1/2 avacado
Meal 3 after gym
1 Apple
8 oz Chicken breast
1 cup rice
1 cup vegetable
1/2 avacado
Tomorrow will go grocery shopping.
Today I am low on food
But is my basic meals plan.
Boring but works.
@Slyderkt this is a start on food bro
on meal 1 I would add some avocado or walnuts
on meal 2 i would add some broccoli steamed
meal 3 after gym should be protein shake with honey
then meal imo
you need to get bone broth, have you gotten it bro?
I have some bone broth and have been working it it.@Slyderkt this is a start on food bro

This is different eating style now.
When I had surgery I was in a bulk. That’s a funny term for me. My normal weight is 185-190. In a bulk I can’t get past 210. But I still eat healthy and not a dirty bulk. I still end up thicker in the middle and face.
So now I’m trying to get of this extra fat and eat well enough to heal well. I need to drop 20 pounds by Christmas. I’m going on a cruise some where warm and with beachs
@Slyderkt I see so you were bulking at that point bro
20lbs by Xmas? thats possible but we need meal prep bro, possible?
you should start bone broth asap though
For sure. I bought chicken breast. I will cook tomorrow and and vegetables. I will meal prep for the week.
Gonna try and go to 1500 cal per day.
Need to go get some more avacados and almonds. My avacado are to green for this week.
I will use bone broth for one meal.
One good thing is my appetite is low right now. Might even fast some.
lets update the new plan when you have it and fasting is the key here too @Slyderkt
leg day? you sure this early? maybe something easier @SlyderktWent to gym this morning.
Now I am sitting at home.
Ice pack on top of my knee and another on bottom of knee.
Also have one on my shoulder..
I will do some heating pads later.
I look worse than I feel.
Just getting ready for a leg day tomorrow with my coach
I’ve been doing legs 3 times a week for the last 4 week or more. Just can do any squats with bar of any kind. Lots of leg machine.leg day? you sure this early? maybe something easier @Slyderkt
Only a couple plate machines. Some I can load and unload with one arm. Only one machine I can load but not unload. I do it with my coach and helps me.

@Slyderkt good day on fasting but if you eat rice cakes its not fasting bro
you gotta have no foodlets try to cut the meals into meal prep possible?
Plugging away
physical therapists are definitely a dime a dozen got to go to the right one
Sounds like progress to me brother. Fasting gets easier the more you do it.
Absolutely
Nice
Yep I will say today was first real fast.
I was able to keep my self busy in the field today. Water only till dinner.
I am warn out tonight. Hard physical day at work. I had to meal prep some chicken tonight. So that is all I ate. Just too tired.

Wife had the chicken in his one in the pantry.perfect 198 good movement see fasting works

It also comes in beef.
I added some shredded chicken breast and was great

Went to PT on Friday. Doing great. Even PT wants to start resistance / isometric training cause we fell ready.
But Dr says 12 week post op. It’s only been 8 weeks. He is waiting on better attachment.
I see him dec 16. I am sure he will let them loose.
In meantime doing great with range of motion. Only thing lacking is reaching up behind my back. Finally got right hand and left hand the same. Now need to improve both.
Guys, if you have surgery. GO To PT. It is boring and not active. But it helps way more than you think. Check the ego at the door. They will have you do stupid little things that you WILL NOT do at home!
Massage and ice at end of PT is my favorite.
It hurts and I love it. They have been able to rub out the knots and pain of new bi cep tendon attachment.
Yesterday in gym was crazy. Was trying new things with zero or minimal weight. Checked out bicep, back and tricep movements.
After an hour I had to leave weight room and hit the sauna. I was feeling to good in weight room. Scared I would hurt my self. So stopped.
Woke this am 195

I had to do PT when my back was an issue in 2016
That is amazing progress man. Love to hear it.
Sleep has been an issue for me forever.
I finally broke down and had Dr write a script.
We are trying Trazadone. Falling asleep is easy for me. Staying asleep is the problem. So far meds are helping me stay asleep. I have always dreamed a lot. My brain never shuts off. But on the meds the dreams are wild. Never scary just weird stuff.
Sounds like it’s healing nicely
Last Wednesday I was at my mom’s house. 93 but still try’s to get around. She started to fall and I jumped up just in time to catch her and break her fall . She was fine. But the shoulder took a lot of the pressure. It hurt pretty good. I am hoping it didn’t tear again.
I took it easy over the weekend. Went to Memphis to watch my daughter run the St Jude marathon.
I think it’s going to be alright. Time will tell.
I am just past 10 weeks post OP. Starting resistance training tomorrow.
Here we go. Don’t plan on breaking any records soon.
