I was out of the workout saddle for almost two months. I'm still not able to jog or hike because of the pressure it puts on my still recovering spine, but I am able to do some weightlifting that doesn't compress my spine.
My weight is bouncing between 206 and 209, and it is a bit discouraging not being able to do the kind of aerobic exercise that I was previously doing. But I've included a few thumbnails of myself to chronicle my physique at this point.
My weight is bouncing between 206 and 209, and it is a bit discouraging not being able to do the kind of aerobic exercise that I was previously doing. But I've included a few thumbnails of myself to chronicle my physique at this point. I have actually lost some muscle mass over the past month as my arms went down from 17 3/4 inches to about 17 1/4. I haven't been able to do any sit-ups because of the torque it puts on my back, but I did do 50 crunches today and I feel okay. I also did 50 push-ups this morning. So while I don't have the six-pack abs yet, and I'm not shedding pounds like I was initially, as the farmer in the movie "Babe" said, "That'll do pig."
