Been shopping past 3 days it seems 😂 … still off gym my legs unfortunately just needs resting. Even walking a little bit around shops puts it into a lot of pain so just literally going to rest have legs up and chill for the next few days so I can get back quicker 🤝
I hope you all have an amazing Christmas and thanks to anyone that reads my blogs and chimes in every now and again 🙂

Went Christmas shopping yday and ngl it took it out of me big time lol probs not good for the old hamstring. Slept like a baby last night and now trying to do all the packing now. It hurts a lot when I’m on my feet so going to try and rest as much as possible the next few days 🙂

Unwind taken immediately after training before you get home then take dream sleep as you get home and eat then get to bed my man. Hopefully running those supps should help with getting yourself chilled ready to sleep.
When we train you’re using your sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight) and post training we want to get to back to your parasympathetic nervous system state (rest and digest) as fast as possible – even more so in your situation so you can digest your post workout food efficiently and of course wind down to get ready to sleep.

Went back to the gym today for the first time in 5 days and it felt so good to pump some blood around the body. I did some chest and arms, nothing crazy, just had fun with it. It’s hard to brace properly so didn’t push anything too hard.
Had a very light flush through on my hamstring today and then got it all taped up to help with the lymphatic drainage to try and get the bruising to go down a bit. MRI booked for next week as well so that’s good. Onwards and upwards 🙏

Confirmed grade 2 tear of my biceps femoris- looking at 2/3 months full recovery but luckily we’ve been pulling back on legs as I said yday so I should be able to do my prep in Jan as I’ll also be starting a heavy peptides recovery protocol. Which I will share here one I’ve got it all sorted.

Hey buddy glad to hear you taking steps towards losing weight and getting healthier. I think it may even be beneficial for you to look at working with someone/a coach to help you mainly with structure and accountability and of course finding an approach that is going to allow you to progress but also be sustainable over time so you can live a nice, relatively balanced lifestyle whilst dropping weight and getting healthy again 🙂

So the bruising has come out a bit more again but I think that’s a good thing as the body will be flushing itself. I’m going to get it taped up to encourage the bruising out a bit more. Going to just take a couple days off and rest it up. Elevate it ice it and compress it. The good old RICE treatment 🙏

Right so I’ve had a bit of a mare – went to run down the road and tore my hamstring. It’s very bruised and inflamed. I need to wait until it’s gone down and then I’m going to get a scan and I hope to god it’s not too serious and will be better in a couple weeks. Very annoyed but as always I will remain positive 🙏😅
