Re: Squatting
Congrats. I am a L5/L4/S1 surgery survivor, hahahaha! And I have squatted 600lbs. They said I would never lift again and wanted to med board me out of the military. That was in 2002. I finished off my carreer and fully retired on my terms, and got back into lifting and have competed in a full PL meet. You can do this brother! Congrats on no pain!TEAM GREENComment

Great news! I read an article about a guy that had pylon fractures in both. Ankles and legs. Docs told him he would never be able to walk. He started crawling to get his strength back, then body weight squats and eventually he added weight. The bones rehabilitated so well that they began expelling all the hardware they'd put in to hold everything together which had to be removed. He's now a power lifter. I'll find the link and post it if anyone is interested.Comment

Re: Squatting
Nice to hear Chesty...although I am going to move this thread into the training section. Keep working those squats...try doing 190-200 bodyweight squats in a row, those are fun and a great warm-up.Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves.

We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us! (Philippians 4:13)

Re: Squatting
squats are getting better. it's amazing how the back surgery fixed things. I never expected this good a recovery. why my doc c gets 140K for the surgery. I'm sure between anesthesiologist, nurses hospital, etc the surgery was at least $250,000!.
im just cautious in my lifts now paying real close attention to my body and stopping if anything feels even the slightest off. 10 years ago I would have ignored it and it took 13 orthopedic surgeries for me to catch on, lol. now I'm 98% and I'm not gonna screw that up.SEMPER FI, DEATH BEFORE DISHONOR, STRENGTH AND HONOR, SOMETIMES THE FROST MAKES THE BLADE STICKComment
