It's been a Bad weekend so far. Thursday night my mother in law got rushed into hospital as her chemo had made her weak and she caught a bad infection which caused a lot of worry then on friday night my brother in law was on his way home from work at midnight when he came off his motor bike badly. He lost his left arm at the shoulder, shattered his right elbow, broke his right leg so badly it was only his boot holding it on, his handle bars speared his stomach and he lost a lot of skin but he should survive just with a lot of changes. So we've been between cheltenham hospital for Cat's mum then to frenchay for her brother. I'll just have to try and train as and when cus it's gonna be a mad time coming up.

Thursday
My brother in law is getting on well now, he came off the morphine on tuesday and he sat up in a chair this morning and he wants to aim to get his remaining arm as strong as possible and possibly be the first amputee to get the #3 if it hasn't already been done. He's one determined bloke, if he wants it he'll get it.
Managed to get a bit of training in today, at different points, first time in ages.
AM
Grippers
warm up
r/h #3 5x1
l/h #2.5 5x1
vbar
warm up
95kgx5x1
PM
bending
6" 8mm hrs
6" 8mm crs PB ;D
6" 5/16 bastard bar 'huge bastard' PB ;D
I had some frustration to get out so decided to vent some on the steel. I have been trying the 7" crs and bastard for ages with no luck so today i banged out the hrs and thought fuck it and grabbed the crs. Bang! That went in under 2 mins so I thought why not test my luck on the bastard bar. Because the 6" was feeling good I cut and inch of the bastard bar and went at it. And got it in about 4 mins.

Tell him he's more than welcome to come down and do whatever rehab etc he needs to do at our place. It would be something special.

Right, callout is over and Steve is coming out of hospital on Monday so it's back to pounding some reps with only 35 days left to go. Maybe this break will effect my placing but maybe not. FridayGrippers Warmups R/H #3 5x1 hg350 vn,1,vn,vn PB  rb330n vn,vn L/H#2.5 5x1 rb260 vvn,vvn VbarWorked upto 110kg both hands but cus I haven't done it for so long the thing holding me back is skin conditioning so this'll be back soon enough. Might do 2 high rep sessions next week to get the skin sorted. Bending6"x8mm crs DO 5.5"x8mm hrs Reverse PB Rolled up 2 frying pans and ripped an Argos catalogue into 3 pieces. I needed to prove to myself that I could still do it and wanted to get some vids done. |

Sorry I didn't make it tonight lads but I was part of the welcome home committee that was a bit later than anticipated. But I made a new vid earler so I'll put it in the vid section.

I'm having trouble doing the walk of pain vids, made them on an over used tape and they seem to be speeding up like a Benny Hill show.

Saturday
Got some training in this week here and there been hectic and I've been fighting some shitty cold thing but I managed to get some vbar in this morning as this afternoon I have to move a load of stuff round for Steve as he's realising his house layout isn't working for his wheel chair or lack of being able to use both hands. I really will do my best to get back up the unit this week it's just I'm the only one that can sort the heavy or technical stuff out for them at the mo.
Vbar
50kgx4
60kgx4
80kgx2
95kgx2
110kgx3
115kgx1 r/h
110kg fail l/h
I need to get my hands reconditioned for this and 27 days to do so. I will do my best at the B.I.G comp, probably not as good as I had wanted but fate can be fickle sometimes and I've got plenty of years to kick ass in the future ;D
