Finally settled back in for the spring semester at UNCW! My training has been really good and I found out that this semster should be easier than last semester so I should be able to get a lot done for TSO and spend more time learning on my own about training, diet etc. Had my ortho appt yesterday and found out that I had "Internal Snapping Hip." This is good news as it means no surgery!! I just have to keep working my way into squatting at full strength. Lately I've been able to hit 90% of my 1RM with virtually no pain! I'm playing is safe but things are much better than they were!

Since going to my Chiropractor last week, he suggested using a decline bench, and jacking it up using stairs or plates etc to allow me to decompress my back without using a pullup bar or inversion table. I now do this around twice per week for 10-12 minutes and it's been great for helping my back stay healthy and not feel so tight and cumbersome.
