Sadly, 2022 was a down year for my health.

Of course. I'm lifting now. It's just that side will be forever weak and small because I only have 1/3 of a muscle now. Right now I'm doing everything except pull down movements, deadlifts, and heavy rows. I can do moderate weight rowing motions now, but it's only to maintain flexibility and neural function. Doc said I can go harder after 6 weeks once the tendon area heals up and the loose torn muscle fibers start to "scar in".
I cant do barbell bench presses yet because of the the lat involvement in unracking the weight. Dumbbell presses are OK though. Some tricep movements are hard because of the lat involvement in required to keep the upper arm stationary. |

I recently starting lifting and man I was getting some decent definition on my back. Now I’m laid up with tennis elbow and gout. Tomorrow will be a week without lifting and I’m depressed about it lol. Give me some encouraging words my dudes.
Before my injuries I was @ 275 x 1 bench, 315 x 3 deadlifts and 255 x 1 on squats. Only taking BCAAs and creatine. Can’t have much protein bc of gout. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

It's ****ing annoying (of course, also far more minor than some of the shit in this thread)... tried resting mine for a while and didn't really help. Took a leftover steroid pack from a pinched nerve last year while icing and it helped a ton for that week, but is slowly back and seems more annoying now than ever.
Going to start a routine of grip strength and reverse curl exercises followed by icing a few times/day to see if it helps. |

Only thing that works for me is very light but 30-50 rep pushdown sets before I begin any pushing workouts. I do 2-3 sets of these along with my normal shoulder "prehab" that takes about 10 minutes before I even begin lifting, any time I do upper body lifting.

Haven't seen DoctorJo videos before, but looks like good stuff, too. You helped with the shin splints last year, which ended up being weak calves... started doing a lot of calf raises, which helped a ton. Thinking along those same lines now, probably just need to strengthen the area and hit on any imbalances. The Athlean-X videos touch on modifying routines, like the cheating side laterals, which really helps with my default laziness of letting it rest for weeks. |
