[B]Stephen L[/B].- Hip is healing slowly but surely. Thanks for asking. Taking longer than expected as damage from first surgery hadn't completely healed before they went in the same incision and messed with the same soft tissue.
I asked if they could just put a damned zipper there to make it easier.

[/B][I]This one was amazingly hard! Started out at 115#, could not lock out arms after 4th rep on second set. Dropped to 105# and was able to do them in very broken sets. Most I've ever used for a WOD with PPs. Back squats were broken last four or five sets, but I felt strong out of the bottom on [U]all reps[/U] for the first time ever since starting CF[/I]!

6/29/10
AM
Outpatient PT

PM
Row 1000m - 4:23.8

50-40-30-20-10
KB Swings (1 pood)
Sit ups
Leg raises (Had to do 1 leg raises, R/L)

23:53 - This actually put me in the range of the normal folks at the box. Most of whom scaled the WOD in some way. I may not be a smoke-farter (old, hobbled fire breather) at this point but at least I'm back in the park.

4 x 100m walk w/o crutches
(1:20, 1:16, 1:15, 1:13)
I'm going to stop doing these for time. They're hurting in way that doesn't seem therapeutic. Have to remember that this is a marathon and not a sprint.
