[URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oouop8PpBJw"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oouop8PpBJw[/URL] Too much coffee this morning.;) I went to a neurosurgeon yesterday. He carefully read my MRI from June 1. I have arthritis, bone spurs, and flattened discs in my cervical spine. Without knowing my age he would have guessed I am 10 years older than I am by looking at the MRI. He wants to see me in 4 weeks to see how I am progressing. Neck surgery may be in my future. I do have a history of arthritis in my family, both sides, including the neck. I have lived a physically demanding life. I played sports in high school. I served four years in the Army as a paratrooper. I raced motocross, and for the last 20 years I have rock climbed and more recently participated in Crossfit. For now I will continue my life. I will continue to train. I have already made several modifications. I will stay away from lifting heavy weights, especially overhead. I will no longer put performance in front of health and longevity. |
Re: The Shed 'O Pain
@Tim, health and longevity, right on.

Re: The Shed 'O Pain
Just got back from Spearfish Canyon yesterday. Norm and I had a great trip. Spearfish is another world class crag. We did many 9s, 10s, 11s, and one 12a. I think we only got on one less than stellar route the whole trip. Highly recommended. We also did some fun exploring and geocaching. Somehow I managed to lose 5 pounds on the trip. I don't know how. I ate like a pig.

@Tim, glad to hear you're home safe and sound.
Last few days: lots of walking on golf courses and at the beach. Wading up to my knees, but not going to go any further, no point tempting fate. |

Bouldered for an hour in the Shed. Set a new problem. Not too hard. Fun though.

Re: The Shed 'O Pain
Lots of walking on the beach, some swimming, some general tom-foolery, no lifting. Back is feeling better, hip and butt still cramp, but it's getting manageable.

Re: The Shed 'O Pain
JT - I'm glad you're feeling better. When are you back in Ohio?
Climbed at Hinckley with Rick, Don, and Ken. Fun. Later I did some mobility work in the Shed. I also did 5 ring muscle ups. |

Re: The Shed 'O Pain
@Tim, sorry to hear about the back spasms.
Lots more walking, some swimming, some boogie boarding, no lifting. Back/hip/butt continue to improve slowly. Going to try some pushups, pullups, and dips soon. Cancelled trip to Olympic Training Center and Master's World Cup. Back in Ohio on 7/29, shed next Saturday or Sunday. |
Re: The Shed 'O Pain
Bouldered at CRG with Jeff. Bouldering if just plain fun. We finished up with some dips. Good to climb with Jeff.
JT, the back is feeling much better. See you in the Shed next weekend. |

Re: The Shed 'O Pain
@Tim, that's quite a WOD done on just clear liquids.
Good luck tomorrow. I walked some today and did 1 air squat and then had an incredible cramp/spasm in my hip. The PT says this is a good thing b/c it means that muscle that wasn't working at all before is now working. Sometimes I think PT stands for Pain Therapist.... |
Re: The Shed 'O Pain
@Tim, just watched the slo-mo bar muscle up. That's pretty cool. It was interesting how you were pulling to your waist and everyone who doesn't have a bar muscle up is pulling to their chest.
Tuesday July 28, 2015 Walked 1.5 miles. Held a goblet squat, no pain. Held a front plank, no pain. Held a side plank with left hand down, meh... Held a side plank with right hand down, this was uncomfortable Did 10 pushups, no problem Did 3 pullups, this was really awkward and off balance and pulling something in my rib cage (probably from having walked funny and been out of balance for months) so I stopped at 3 pullups. Did 0 sit ups, the muscles just wouldn't fire to move me, so I stopped. Did strict presses from the rack, 5x35, 5x45, 5x75 Overall, a very encouraging day experimenting with what works and what doesn't work. Am going to have to find some way to exercise the abs and to get the muscles to fire so that I can do a situp some day. Also, likely have to hang from the bar until my ribcage gets evened out before doing anymore pullups. |

1 problem 10 push ups 10 reverse wrist curls 5 rounds Did a fews reps of several exercises to make a video to show my neurosurgeon what I can do and what I can't.

That's a shrug, an external rotation, and half-press. 3# Very light weight. The left arm is having trouble keeping up. |
Re: The Shed 'O Pain
@Tim, the muscle up on the can/can't video looked effortless.
Thursday July 30, 2015 Coached basketball for an hour. Rode my bike 1 mile, did some planks and less than body weight movements (e.g., ring rows, green band dips) and very light weights (e.g., 35# push presses), rode my bike another mile. Feeling a little better every day. This is a dangerous time b/c I could easily do too much and get set back several months... |
Re: The Shed 'O Pain
Climbed at Hinckley with Don, Kenny, and Kerry. Got up all three Banana routes. Had to make up a new finish for the left version. Wet.
I did a little mobility work later in the Shed. |
