Thanks buddy. Trying to schedule an appointment for this week to get it looked at. Things are feeling better, but I gotta stay sane somehow! And believe me, there was plenty of wallowing. 

4/9/21

20 Minutes on the bike 

TKEs / Hamstring Bridge / Hip Circle Lateral Steps 

3x15 each leg / 2 x 5 with a 10 second hold on each rep / 3x10 each side 

15 Swings on my "ghettobell" / 1 minute medium resistance Bike (no rest between sets) 

5 total rounds, swings @ 90# 

15 minutes on the bike to finish. 

Will keep trying to strengthen my leg muscles around the knee while keeping swelling down. Getting a lot of tenderness in the calf which, once massaged, helps the knee joint a lot.

Thanks, Tom. Appointment is on Thursday and I'm sure he'll order another MRI (yuck) but fingers crossed for nothing too serious as another surgery will absolutely not be an option any time soon with a new baby a mere few weeks away.

Saw my Ortho today. He didnt find any glaring evidence that my knee was a meniscus tear but he said based on the way I say it feels, it likely is. MRI ordered and we'll know more soon. 

Had 30 minutes to train 

Ghettobell Swings / Back Squat to 22" Box 

20, 20, 20, 20, 20 @ 100# / 3x10 @ 185 the swings crushed my life. Loved them. The squats didn't really hurt but some reps I felt a stabby pain behind the outter part of my knee. Like my goddamn meniscus was sliding around. Good stuff. Probably wont do these again for a few weeks and stick to movements that dont hurt. 

TKEs

3x20 each leg with a slow eccentric 

And that was it.

I’m no doctor but speaking from a guy with two total knee replacements after a half dozen meniscus repairs........if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck...............good luck, I hope we’re all wrong.

Thanks Satch. This one is definitely more painful to try and do any kind of training on. Walking, sitting, stairs, no problem at all. But squatting or pulling from a bent knee( beyond a certain ROM) is a stabby hurty pain behind the knee. Sounds like a meniscus tear to me (Of course, I'm not an MRI or a doctor....unless...). Hoping there is a conservative treatment to get me through the next few months before I can schedule a surgery. 

Warm Up 

Incline Bench Press 

135x5, 135x5, 185x3, 215x3, 235x3, 245x2, 255x1, 235x3, 255x2, 265x1, 245x3, 265x2, 275x1, *add 5 second pause just above the chest 185x5, 185x5, 185x5 so hard. Incline bench feeling strong! 

Seal Rows 

135x8, 185x5, *add brief pause at top then 3 second eccentric 215x5, 215x5, 215x5, 215x5 

Single Arm DB Oblique Sling rows / Single Leg Supported Single arm DB oblique sling bench press 

3x8 each arm @ 70# / 3x8 each arm/leg @ 70# so feckin hard

Seated DB Triceps Extension / Seated DB Curls 

3x15 @ 45, 55, 55 / 3x10 each w/ 2 second eccentric

Was going to mope and be sad but decided to train lower body in any way I can instead. It's what Andy would want!

Warm Up (15 min on bike)

Split Squats 1/2 ROM (3 second eccentric, 1 second hold) / 7" Eccentric Step Downs 

5x5 @ 30# DBs each / 4x5 @ BW each finding out more and more about this injury. Squatting, deadlifting, anything where my legs are next to each other hurts really bad with a knee bend. But, single leg work, somehow, takes pressure off the owwie spot and if I stop before going "too deep". It's lame but it's better than nothing. 

Slow Eccentric BB RDLs + shrug at top / Ghettobell swings 

185x8, 185x8, 185x8, 185x8 / 4x10 @ 100# RDLs cause no pain due to the fixed knee. Another thing I can do, which is nice. 

TKEs / Seated Russian Twists / More Ghettobell Swings 

3x15 each / 3x30 @ 45# plate / 3x10 @ 100# 

10 minutes bike cool down

Training anything and everything else helps to prevent the moping. For now. 

4/22/21

Warm Up 

Bench Press 

135x8, 135x5, 185x5, 185x5, 225x5, 255x8, 255x8, 255x8 *move to shoulders on bench and bridging with hips/feet 135x10, 185x10, 185x10, 185x10 (all don with a slow eccentric and short pause) I liked these! Just something different. 

BB Bent Over Rows (starting from the hang) / Ab Wheel 

135x8, 185x8, 225x5, 245x5, 265x5, 275x5, 185x12, 135x15 / 4x12 

DB Skull Crushers / BB Curls 

4x20 @ 30s / (done 5 wide, 5 narrow grip) 4x10 @ 65, 75, 85, 95 then all wide grip 4x10 @ 95, 85, 75, 65

Doctor said I did a number on my meniscus, as expected. This one has a flap that keeps squishing out when I load that leg with more than just BW, so it's problematic for training. I will be doing everything I can to mitigate making things worse while also maintaining strength/size. I could get a surgery next week but with the wife at 38 weeks pregnant, it's selfish and unwise. I'll be waiting until we have a handle on a schedule with our wee behbeh before I go under the knife, but I will be getting it this summer. Anyway, here is 2 days of training

4/23/21

Warm Up 

Good Mornings (was able to do these with mostly no pain/discomfort) / Side Plank Leg Lift and Hold 

95x5, 135x5, 135x5, 155x5, 155x5 / 3x3 each leg @ 10seconds hold per rep 

Tried a few squat/lunge variations. Some hurt, some didn't. More experimenting needed mostly with A TIGHT knee wrap on. Could be helpful. 

Stiff Leg RDLs / TKEs w/ slow eccentric 

4x5 @ 225 w/ 2 second eccentric / 4x15 each leg 

Ghettobell Swings / Random Core work 

5x20 @ 100# / about 100 reps 

Cool down bike ride @ 10 minutes

I like it because it's like cardio, but you're building (or in my case maintaining) strength. And since it's zero pain, it's a plus!

4/26/21

Warm Up 

Snatch Grip RDLs w/ slow eccentric 

135x5, 185x5, 225x5, 255x5, 275x5, 285x5, 295x5

3x15 @ 100# + band / 3x10 each side 

Sled Drags going forward only 

6x 100' up a hill @ 90# added felt great and kinda hard

Warm Up 

Trap Bar Deads from 4" blocks. This was the lowest i've gone since the new knee injury but it felt ok overall! 

165x8, 165x5, 250x5, 250x5, 305x5, 305x5 felt myself compensating onto the right leg more by the end so I called it. 

Cant remember the details of the rest of what I did. I know I included some ghetto bell swings and also some sled drags. It was good. Moving on.

Last day of training for a while, my wife is being induced tomorrow so I'll be full on dad mode for a while. 

Warm Up 

Actually said FFFF it and squatted. Granted it was about a half squat to some chains I set up as a guide, but it was good. Wrapped my bad leg with a knee wrap every set and that helped. Didn't eliminate all discomfort but a lot of it. 

135x8, 135x8, 185x8, 185x8, 225x8, 225x8, 225x8 not bad at all. 

Walking Lunges up my driveway (uphill) 

+30# chains 2x8 each leg, +60# chains 5x8 each leg this upset the knee a bit more. Oh well

Side Plank Leg Lift and hold / Ab Wheel / Prone Single Leg Hamstring Curls with band 

2x5 each side @ 10 second holds each rep / 2x10 / 2x20 each leg 

Ran out of time and FFFFs

Thanks gang! It's been a wild ride so far and I'll say, the sleep deprivation lives up to the hype!

On May 6th, my son Liam Kaste was born after nearly 72 hours of my wife being in labor. It was stressful and no sleep didnt help. Now, 11 days later, Liam is pooping and eating his way to being a massive baby and dad life has been awesome. 

Trying to balance dadding and training but with my wife still recovering, I need to step up as much as I can. Since May 4th, I've been able to train 3 times. 

May 13th 

Had 40 minutes 

Quick warm up 

Eccentric RDL, short pause, to High pull / Hex Bar Walks / Ghetto Bell Swings 

Worked up to 225x4x5 / 250x4 trips of over 60m / 4x15 @ 100# 

Sucking wind but felt good.

The hardest part about being a father is learning to live with your heart outside your body.  But you get to watch it grow up on its own, and that's worth it.

My boy Duncan (you all know him) turns 14 today.  He's getting a razor for his birthday.  He doesn't have a mustache, he has a hairy lip.  Gotta fix that.

Love that! I appreciate the advice/wisdom. Right now, my son could use a razor too but only shave off that sweet sweet baby hair. I guess I'll just let it grow out on his own.

The low amounts of sleep continue. Trying to nap where I can but there's always something to do. Snuck away to try and throw a bit. Was seeing how it would feel with my new bad knee since I haven't thrown on it yet. That plus no sleep and I was not expecting much. 

Warm Up 

HWFD 
1-turns x5 best of 37' hmm
Fulls x8 best of 40' timing/technique a little off but knee held up. Was scared to really drive into it (left knee) but no pain during the throws, just uncomfortable. 

LWFD x6 best of 77' really surprised. These were inconsistent but I could feel the rhythm trying to come back. 

Light Hammer x5 best of 127' really shocked. No pain on these either. Took 3 easy ones that were under 115' and then hit a 122' and then 127' and figured that was fine. 

Still looking to get the surgery to clean it out because it's affecting my training, but if I need to wait I know I can make it through games.
