redneck 6 · Jul 8, 2004

Well, it's been almost two weeks and my Trap/pec injury is still bothering me so I'm going to the doc tommorrow. My training partners started back training this week and it is about to kill me not being able to train. I'm going to try and train Friday, I'm going to do DE SQ/DL with the S.S bar. We are going to the 3 day a week routine that Wendler wrote about in PLUSA for the next couple of months until about 8 weeks out from our next full meet. I have got to finsh up this house and work on the property. One of my training partners was starting to get overtrained so he was more then happy to do it.

Have you looked into prolotherapy - I believe it's more for tendon/ligament injuries. This really helped my bad shoulders!

Hey Excel!
What is that type of therapy all about? Thanks in advance!

It's an injection of a solution, directly into the tendon/ligament. See towards bottom of page one here http://www.professionalmuscle.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=6990

I went and got a MRI done today results will be in next week. My doc. gave me a prescription for Medrol( a steroid that helps reduces inflammation) and some muscle relaxers.My shoulder is feeling alot better, so maybe by next week I'll be able to get going a 100% depending on the MRI results. BB52 I'm going to do the push/pull meet at the state fair in Sept. and then I'm gunning for the IPA nationals in November. If you are interrested in going to the IPA's let me know and we will meet up and go together, the more that goes the cheaper it will be. I now my training partners are going and probably one other guy.

hell yea, how do u get qualified to go? i didnt think i would be able to since i havent done any meets.

You don't have to quailify for the IPA's, just make sure you get your entry form in early because they have a 55 or 70(not sure exactly the number) lifter per day limit and it fills up very fast.
