Use It Or Lose It ☠ Training Log


Cannon

Recommended Posts

Doing those bounce reps definitely have helped my pinching over the years. At this point, however, I don't know if it's pure strength it builds or if it's simply helping establish more of a mind/muscle connection. When I first started doing them I was under 90 lbs 1hp, however, a month or two down the road i was mini repping over 90 and it quickly brought my max over 100.

That's good to know! I like them because I can do them down on 1 knee which is easier on my back.

Gym workout.

8x5 pull-ups. 4 sets hanging from 1-1/2" vertical bars.

3x10 push ups.

Biceps and triceps with dumbbells.

Levering with 6# body bar.

Boat loads of reps with light weight on leg extension and leg press.

It's good to see you logging again, Matt! Sorry to hear about the back, too. I have battled a slipped disk or two and it sucks.

Hows the back been?

Horrible. I am walking with a hitch today.

I've pretty much made up my mind to get surgery in 2016. It will be a two level fusion. They'll remove the two discs causing me cronic pain (L4/L5/S1), replace with chunks of cadaver bone, then screw and plate it all together.

Sooo.... heh..... In true Matt Cannon fashion, I have scarcely worked out once since 12/17. Some gripper closes here and there and that's it.

Foot surgery happened on 12/31 and recovery is going well. I can walk pretty well in a boot. I still have a rod sticking out of my toe which should be removed today. This will make many activities easier because there won't be a concern of bumping it.

Time to start logging some workouts again. Happy 2016 everyone.
