Made every day since my last post except for Friday.
This week will be interesting as I’m covering for work up in college station so I’m adding 3hrs of driving to each day and have to hit the gym after work rather than before which I prefer.
Suppose to be shoulders mixed with legs and abs today

Are you having shoulder surgery? Good luck and I hope you have a speedy recovery. I've decided that it's not the getting old that sucks, it's the crap that falls apart while getting old that really sucks.
I lost 10 freaking pounds after my hip surgery. I went from 229 to 219. I was trying to get my BF down to around 12% but my smart aleck physical therapist said I probably lost that much in muscle. I know that's wrong though.
Now the hardest part. Getting the strength back that I had before surgery.
Good luck RTP!

My week "off" turned into 2 weeks. Seemed like everyone and their dog needed my help over the past 2 weeks moving, or with some kind of plumbing. Didn't really get any time off and plenty of "redneck workouts!"
Hit it hard today though.
Elevator push-ups.
Superman push-ups.
Thumbs up DB bench press.
Decline Spiderman push-ups.
3 sets to failure on each.
3 minutes regular push-ups (probably half on my knees).
Bodyweight bench dips.
Lying DB extension.
Bodyweight tricep extension.
3 sets to failure on each.
3 minutes diamond push-ups (all on my knees).
Now I'm off to move a stove and piano!

And thanks. I hope your recovery continues on a smooth path.
