@Rancid-Schnitzel shoulder injuries aint no fun.
I have an ongoing niggle, had cortisone, physio and short of surgery which they said may not fix it, it operates at 95% I reckon, although a couple of exercises I really struggle with (upright rows the main one) but can see on other exercises how my elbow isnt turned quite as much as the other due to the shoulder

I have a lot of grinding cartilage, I can’t do anything without creaking these days

If you can't hear crackle and pop in your joints are you actually a ferner!

Yeah, it's weird sometimes. For ages it was agony to do burpees but ok for everything else. Today, most shoulder exercises were ok but shoulder press was painful. Might have to rest it completely next week 😠

Swimming this morning. Former coach filled in for current dude and put up a brutal set. But got through it ok. Coach said that I looked "fucking fit man" which has made my decade.

At least you got that right. People get upset when you mention the gay one.

Supposed to be chest and biceps today but chest was pretty crap since I was trying to train around the dodgy shoulder. Reckon I'll have to bite the bullet and rest it. Poo bum wee.
-
Being stupid I didn't rest it and worked around it. Actually feels ok so maybe dodged a bullet. Or probably not....
Back and swimming yesterday. Buggered.
Very good legs session this morning. Hopefully swimming coach doesn't go hard on kick board tonight. Christ I hate kick board. Absolute torture.
Have added a steak dinner to the diet and it seems to be doing the job. The issues with low blood sugar haven't been hovering. Also haven't really hit the sugary treats hard on cheat day and I think that has made a difference.

Got up early to do 30 min of intervals before swimming. Was then hoping for a fairly easy session in the pool but Kommandant Båstard von Coach had other ideas. Long warm up then an "acid bath". 20 X 25 max efforts on a minute. Båstard timed every one as well so nowhere to hide.
What a way to start the week!

I'm just waiting for the day he makes you do all of this with a towel over your head. Pretty much sounds like waterboarding to me!!

If I could only have one meal for the rest of my life it would be a good steak dinner. Please note the word "good" cos shit, chewy, fatty steak sucks arse. Lamentably this is what I got when out for dinner a couple of weeks back, I hate it when you pay $25 for something lacklustre.

Yeah I'm very picky about steak. Had some really shit ones when I was living in Norway and went off it for a while. But a good one is hard to beat.

Chest and biceps this morning. Again, should have been careful with shoulder but wasn't. Hopefully I'll get away with it 🙏.

Shoulder actually ok today so hit the back and tris. Yeah not bad. Feeling tired though so swimming tonight will be a struggle.
Had some no sugar jelly. That's good shit.

Funnily enough I became aware of this on this very forum some years back. Bartman recommended it as a treat.

When your treat to yourself is sugar free jelly, you're just doing life wrong
