great job, glad to hear your backs getting better

RickB · 11-04-2009, 01:58 PM

Thanks Ash!

Back day today and my Deadlifting therapy went like this:
135 x 10
185 x 8
225 x 6

It went well with no pain or issues during or after.

Nice to see you back at it, and it's really good to hear it's going well!

RickB · 11-18-2009, 05:36 PM

Thanks Leigh!

Today was back day again. I missed last week due to illness. But today I upped the weight another 10lbs (235) with strict form x 4. My cable rows are nearly where I left off before the injury, so things are definitely looking up!

RickB · 11-25-2009, 03:17 PM

My final set today was 275 x 4 DL with strict form. No back or sciatic issues, but it did feel heavier than it used to. But I knew I'd lose a good bit of strength, so no big. "I'll Be Back!"

Back in the saddle again.

RickB · 11-26-2009, 09:11 AM

Thanks guys! MoPower, it feels like a kiddie saddle right now, but I guess that's where I need to be

RoaringMad Mac · 11-26-2009, 09:22 AM

Your getting there though and that is half the battle.

matt20 · 11-26-2009, 11:59 AM

That's great news Rick! You will be back stronger than before in no time

rippednmichigan · 11-26-2009, 07:57 PM

DL's FTW!

That's awesome that your back's getting better Rick!

RickB · 01-29-2010, 02:17 PM

Well, I had back day today in the gym and it went pretty well. This is the first time I've gone over 300 on deadlifts since my back injury. I got 315 x 4 on my last set. Strength wise, I felt good, but mentally I was lifting in fear of hearing/feeling that "pop" again. But all went well.

This is good news!!! Baby steps and one day at a time add up to big gains!!

RickB · 01-30-2010, 10:11 AM

Thanks Kick!

Oh my DOMS are kicking in after back day. This kind of pain feels good! I feel alive

I actually think if I can ever get my confidence up, I'll come back better. But I think right now my fear might be a good thing so that I don't rush it.
