@rancid-schnitzel yeah pretty much, is all but ok now, so I'm probably gonna give it another week before testing it, just to be sure.
I have been using a wheat pack and yep, they are good

Just use Deep Heat. That cures absolutely everything.

looking back over my posts, been about 6 weeks since I hurt myself, extended due to impatience a couple of weeks back.
So did 5 sets of deads for first time in 6 weeks, only went upto 120kg (x5 reps) and then did 3 sets of 5 at 100kg as well and felt fine.
So will start easing back into these as I try to get my weight back up again, workouts have been a bit flat in recent weeks due to not being able to do deads!!
-
had posted some time back about front squats and the struggle with my flexibility mainly.
Have been working on them the past few weeks, and did a PB of 100kg, failed on 110kg.
Only issue I notice is that when I am squatted down, my right glute sits lower than my left (I know my right hip flexor is generally tighter than my left) so have found some exercises for my hips to do, so will see what that does!
This guy (on YT & IG) has some good stuff...dude has been diagnosed with Cancer
-
Upto 150 on dead today, while still well short of my PB it was a PB without straps or belt, body feeling pretty good, especially with the hip mobility stuff I been doing.
-
Front squat pb of 110kg, had asked TRJnr to spot but didn't need him and he was pushing me to go higher as I did it easy, but I didn't go up again.
-
Best deadlift since injury in mid may, 165 today, straps, no belt.
Did some good volume though, felt good!
-
Matched my deadlift PB today, felt quite easy so added 2.5kg more and I may as well have added 100kg for how much heavier it felt.

Ridiculous how that works.I was watching Eddie Hall today - he took the WR from 465 straight to 500. Don't know that I've quite thought that thru till now how incredible that is.

man, zero motivation to do exercise on day 4 of lockdown, done nothing any other days yet either.
Wake up with good intentions, but as the day goes on, I honestly cant be arsed, maybe I need try do something in the morning...

Sorry to hear that Mate. The changes in routines and uncertainty can really fook with you. Must be absolutely awful for those who aren't in a good place ar the best of times. The clear message after more than a year is that exercise and good health (I.e. losing weight) are essential but I guess that isn't what people want to hear. Ultimately you want to be as best equipped as possible to fight this thing if you ever get it and that should be motivation enough to pump that iron

.@rancid-schnitzel is more with limited equipment at home, love going TO the gym...am sure I'll get over it, just seeing shit play out like you've been expecting isn't much fun.
Thought it'd be a break for my niggles (elbows) but everything you do uses 'em

Totally get that. It's so much harder trying to work out at home. Not just the equipment but also the atmosphere, environment etc. I'm sure you'll get back into it but I worry about those who lose the momentum and get back into bad habits. A lot of people only need an excuse not to exercise.

I love working out at home, park, wherever. The world is a gym if you’re creative enough.

-
Got out for 9 holes today, is much better being able.to choose what hole you can hit to.

Decided to do my intake from today...certainly hit my protein for a change
The snack section includes protein shakes and fruit, sn't just loads of chips haha
-

If you’ve just done 170 then 180 straight after might be tough but if it went smoothly it could be a goer next time. Just be sure to rest for several days, from my experience trying to deadlift a day or two after deadlifting is not good.
