Know this is January, but thought I would give an update on my last workout from December 2013. A little context. Last December 31, I spent the night in the hospital due to complications from my right hemicolectomy. I spent the next 22 days in the hospital. It was brutal. So, am happy that, despite being put back on maintenance chemotherapy, my weightlifting is back to my last workout prior to the initial surgery that took place on December 21.
Bench Press: 95 Kilos 10x3
Squats: 85 Kilos 10x3 (Know I can do heavier.)
Deadlifts: 120 Kilos 10x3
Shrugs: 175 Kilos 10x3 (With straps.)
I do other exercises, but this will give you a flavor. I do have a port and this has limited some of my lifting. I can't do Cleans and I can't do the Log Lift like the Strongman competition. Know this may seem kind of self-indulgent, but want to share this with my fellow CC Warriors. I am actually purchasing more equipment this year as a reward to myself.
On a different note, I wanted to take a picture of my physique today as a measure for next December 31. But, I am kind of scared. I don't know if I will be able to work out like I am now ....
Thanks for letting me toot my workout horn.
