<p>Sorry haven't been watching your thread for a while, great progress. How much do you weigh now? Why is knee clicking? Is that from stairs? Good to see you do 50 pull ups, was it timed?</p>
</div>
</blockquote>
<p> </p>
<p>Will weigh in again tomorrow as do Monday and Friday but on Monday I was 77.8kg which is pretty dam light.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Unsure why knee is clicking but i noticed it the day after a golf tournament. Only clicks when I go up stairs and straighten my leg out. I can run stairs at pace with no click etc but walking up them not so good. Not pain but very loud click.</p>

<p>Eats still going pretty well and staying strong not craving to cakes etc that are always floating about at work. Cheat meal on the weekend was a couple of Burgers on Sunday night. Few drinks had friday and saturday but nothing too major. All in moderation.</p> -
<p>Just cardio and abs today.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Did 30mins on the bike and then 15mins of abs circuits, mainly weighted stuff.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Been going to a local physio at knee care for help with my knee. Looks to be good old pateollo femoral (runners knee). Said had a lot of fluid under my knee cap etc but the clicking I get going up stops can really be pit pointed. Been told to ride 15mins everyday (hmm) and do ice treatments. Going back next monday and then plan out how best to strengthen and iron out any imbalances in my quads. She reckons its fairly straight forward to address and the clicking will stop as we progress. Fingers crossed!</p> -
<p>Shoulders and bike today. I think everyday gonna be a bike day.</p>
<p> </p>

<p> </p>
<p>Finished with 15mins on the bike - low resistance and 100rpm. Knee is all strapped up at the mo and hardly had a click today so the added support is helping.</p> -
Arms yesterday then a day out fishing, well a morning in the end as we filled the bins in just over an hour. All good fish too. Lots of fresh lean protein for this weekend. And a double arms workout too.<br><br>
Today was cardio - 30mins on the bike then abs<br><br>
Feeling a bit shot today and last night, like I'm hungover but I'm not. Dunno what the fuck it is but early night ahead -
<p>Well still been fairly a bit puckerooed the last few days. Dunno what it is, maybe some sort of virus. Early to bed every night and a fair few painkillers to dull the headaches but perhaps foolishly it hasnt really slowed me down too much.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Sunday was golf - ie a 6 to 7km walk. Played average but picked up longest drive for like 5th tournament in a row. Its pretty much all I got right now.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Monday - 15mins bike and then a short chest and triceps session. Physio in the arvo and she massaged the shit out of my quad. Reckons will be pretty sore later today and tomorrow just like after a nasty legs session. Was birthday yesterday too so ribs for dinner then cheesecake. Also had crepe cake and movenpick ice cream during the day plus the last of the weekends snapper. Was good.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Today - 15mins bike and then back and biceps session. Was fairly good to heavy - less evercises than usual due to time lost cycling but more sets with more weight.</p> -
<p>Reckon the year can start to catch up with you during Silly season, only takes a few extra events (plus the kai and booze) to put a dent in the energy levels. Sure it wasn't from celebrating your birthday :whistle: he he</p>
