Thank you guys! He was 92 which is a long time. There were like 20 different issues oh his medical report, only two of which I was informed about. Not real happy. Just not good. Only positives are he didn't suffer at the end, and well not convinced about the afterlife thing, so at least he did his life his way. That and he got to live in his house until the end. The stress dealing with all of the different aspects is unreal, thank god he had made his funeral arrangements a few years back. He is missed. This just really sucks.

Long time no post
Hi folks. Just a brief update. after waiting several months- I finally got my Garage gym equipped. Really fun and exciting to finally be able to train in it. & Nautilus pieces, 1 Universal- pullover, a vertical leg press, a power rack, O bar and almost 800 lbs in weights- including 4 100-s. had about 5 workouts on it. so far the improvement in my ROM around the shoulder and hips- couldn't even GET In the starting position on the leg press when I started- it is quite low- James- pretzel.
No hanging weights on bungie cord- thanks to the Nautilus multi exercise, and with the exception of squats and bb rows, shrugs, no need to load to load 100's on lbs on bars or machines- the Nautilus is brutal with 150 lbs on most machines, lol! strength and flexibility are increasing fast, and stamina inproving- it gets a bit warm out here- but I have a portable AC to take the edge off. Getting new HRY therapy soon, hopefully. Did the blood tests two weeks ago- should be soon!Last edited by HeavyDutyGuy; 09-11-2014 at 03:44 PM.

Training 3 days a week starting this week, after break-ins- and vacation recently. I also bought a treadmill and elliptical at my wife's request, so i have my cardio pieces available. Should be able to do prep even with my impacted schedule, now that my PsyD program has started- lots of stress! Nice to be able to suck down some coffee and supplements and go to the garage to blast.

Nice equipment. Always good to have that stuff where you can roll out of bed and kill it.
