It sure is fun when someone threatens you with a good time tho!Well, I agree, but I wasn’t really looking for a fight lol. Not a whole lot of options left when folks start throwing punches.

I like that, good advice !!Best to stay under the bars, not behind the bars

More punches, more dates!Glad you didn't get injured or an arrest record. LOL Happy you "won" if you had to get into it.
“Won” is a strong word, but I didn’t “lose” and I had a little fun, so I’ll take it.Glad you didn't get injured or an arrest record. LOL Happy you "won" if you had to get into it.
Hurt ribs are no fun, hope it heals up quickly.So, I’ve got a minor rib fracture. Doc says no boxing for 4-6 weeks and that squats and bench press type movements are probably a bad idea. But I’m clear to do anything that doesn’t cause discomfort. Will just play it by ear and do what don’t hurt.
I had a feeling that’s what happened tbh. It ain’t my first rodeoHurt ribs are no fun, hope it heals up quickly.
I knew what it was when my friends had me laughing all weekend and it fuckin hurt . Nobody I was with knew though, cuz mama ain’t raise no bitch. The girl that got me in the fight stayed with me this weekend and had no idea lol.Don’t laugh or sneeze.
That’s tough. Light machine work or bands? Ribs suck, I really dunno what to do pain free with those busted upAny of y’all got some decent ideas for chest work I can do with a cracked rib? I’m thinking I can get away with body weight stuff like dips and push-ups. I know I can’t bench or do flyes that’ll open the rib cage up or put too much pressure on it. Just looking for some ideas that I can try since doc said I’m good to do anything that doesn’t hurt.
I’m having the same problem. I think I’ll probably try out some machine work and just keep it relatively light and high volume. Not expecting to build a lot of muscle while I heal up, but can maybe maintain some.That’s tough. Light machine work or bands? Ribs suck, I really dunno what to do pain free with those busted up
That’s a good idea. Tempo work might be the move right now.Try looping a band in an X pattern behind your upper back for the pull-ups if they go well unloaded. You can make them massively harder with a light band if you tolerate it. Can take my 50 rep push-ups down to a hard set of 20.
You could also try extremely slow tempo with a brutal emphasis on constant contraction, like 10 second reps. Won’t build any strength but you’re bound to push the fascia limits if you are well hydrated, consuming carbs, sodium & pump compounds like agmatine, nitrates, etc.
Sounds like you could use some pain killers man, like oxy or norco. I’ve had 13 ortho surgeries and they definitely helped me, not to suggest being cavalier about narcotics bc the addiction is very real, obviously.

I should be fine with just ibuprofen. I got by with that with a broke back, so a cracked rib ain’t no thing. Pain isn’t even all that bad, comparatively. Just don’t wanna do any exercises that put too much stress on it since it risks a full break, which I’d like to avoid if possible lol.Sounds like you could use some pain killers man, like oxy or norco.

Like my man Jeezy said: I’ll sleep when I die.Hard work never rests
They didn’t feel great, if I’m being honest. But none of the chest work did, and they didn’t feel materially worse, so it’s probably ok. I didn’t note it, but they were done with something of a tempo too. Basically everything was, but not all of it with specific intent for tempo timing. Just moving in a hyper-controlled manner to work the muscles and not do any serious damage.I am surprised dips didn't push that rib, I get a lot of movement and stretch with dips.
Yeah, unless the rib was cracked through a large portion of the bone I would think only ballistic movement, and possibly even a new impact is going to cause a full break. As long as it doesn't start getting more tender over time you are most likely on the right path. Of course you don't need me to tell you that.They didn’t feel great, if I’m being honest.

tacky for stones?Walmart clothes bro. Get you a $5 pair of shorts and a similarly priced graphic tee, some budget underwear. We would do this on camping trips or if someone needed a shirt for tacky for stones.
Nothing says I’m about to load some stones like a $5 graphic tee from Walmart.
Atlas stones for strongman competition training. Competitors use tacky (think like pine tar) to help stick to the concrete spheres for the lift.tacky for stones?
Yeah, that’s my bet too. Doc seemed a little more skittish than I am, but he wasn’t like a sports guy. I think pushing max weight on pressing movements or sparring is a not great idea for a few more weeks, but most everything else is just gonna be a pain tolerance thing.Yeah, unless the rib was cracked through a large portion of the bone I would think only ballistic movement, and possibly even a new impact is going to cause a full break.

Insanity! Then again working while going to law school you have to be a little crazy! It will damn sure be worth it in the end though! Doc has to be skittish so if things go bad they can say you went against their recommendations.Yeah, that’s my bet too. Doc seemed a little more skittish than I am, but he wasn’t like a sports guy.

I mean, I’m obviously not that concerned since I signed up for a spartan race on May 21st lol.

aaaaaaaaah lol ok thats funnyAtlas stones for strongman competition training. Competitors use tacky (think like pine tar) to help stick to the concrete spheres for the lift.
You can skip wearing a shirt if you don’t want it covered permanently in tacky, but it will rip out your body hair and put you at risk for skin infections. So buy the $5 Walmart kitten shirt is my adviceaaaaaaaaah lol ok thats funny
That’s basically my life motto.“It’ll probably be fine!”
“It’ll probably be fine” and “don’t be a pu$$y” are two legendary mottos that work in harmonyThat’s basically my life motto.
Time to light it upAnother test in the A.M. Spent a few days last week in Houston, and still haven’t found a gym there, so pretty bleh week workout wise. Probably gonna hit a chest/back day after my test and then crank down for my last final Wednesday. Flying out to Miami Wednesday afternoon and will be gone til Saturday. If the hotel gym is decent, I’ll probably get a few workouts in while I’m out there.
If not, I’ll just enjoy my vacation. I start work next Monday in Houston, so I’ll be there full-time again and on a regular work schedule, so things should get pretty damn consistent in here.
You forgot azz and tittays on every corner. This will be good for Jim.Enjoy Miami. Gelato and a nice breeze on every corner of South Beach.
Argh matey, ‘tis indeed a fair trove of booty to be hadYou forgot azz and tittays on every corner. This will be good for Jim.
