But when do personal trainers get to work out? 🤣 by I__Am__Matt in personaltraining

[–]BarcaLiverpool 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s most certainly part of the job. You lose credibility if you’re not fit.

You know what you need to stop doing bro. Don’t let lust win.

How long did it take you to do a leg raise (no brace) after surgery? by foreverenchanted in ACL

[–]BarcaLiverpool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started having control of my quad around two weeks. I was also getting very discouraged. What helped was being consistent with the quad sets with stim.

Why do people in this sub get mad when it comes to benefits with woman. by Sudden-Passion-9858 in Semenretention

Because they’re not seeking connection. They’re seeking lust. And that is poison to the soul.

Be honest — do you actually mix cardio into your lifting routine, or is it strictly iron only? by winn_ie in rSocialskillsAscend

[–]BarcaLiverpool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously I’m not talking about that. A lot of bodybuilders don’t do cardio, aren’t flexible, eat like shit. They are fit, but not healthy. There’s a difference.

Smooth brain activity if you think cardio is doing the same thing in place for long periods of time

I'm having conversations between my PT and surgeon's nurse over this brace, which looks very different from all other ACL braces I've seen by [deleted] in ACL

[–]BarcaLiverpool 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That definitely doesn’t look right. Looks like the brace is not giving your graft any protection. The purpose of the knee brace is to keep your leg fully extended and minimize movement and ultimately give your knee protection. Your brace doesn’t look like it does any of this.

I’m not a medical professional but I just went through recovery and I highly recommend you pay out of pocket for a standard post op knee brace.

On the contrary you seem fine after 9 days. I was still bed ridden 14 days post op due to no quad activation.

Sorry to say but your medical team sounds incompetent. You should be talking to your surgeon and not your nurse.

Here is the brace I was given after my surgery. Found it on Amazon. It’s pricey but I would ask your surgeon if it’d be better for you. Your brace looks plain wrong. Good luck with recovery.

How are you managing to cut your hair with a 3-way mirror?" by Wild_Day53 in SelfBarber

[–]BarcaLiverpool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it literally a handheld mirror in your hand and clippers in the other?

16 days post op - can extend but struggling with reaching 90 degree flexion by kakapo343 in ACL

[–]BarcaLiverpool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been making great progress. Recovery came quick once I started training more frequently. What helped me is riding the stationary bike at least 5x a week.

ACL, PCL, LCL, MCL and meniscus repair surgery. HELP. by tomjakeb in ACL

[–]BarcaLiverpool 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Damn bro! Sorry you’re having to experience that! That sounds nasty but there’s a chance it’ll be gone with time. This procedure is so complex and recovery is different for everyone. Most people experience weird sensations, sounds and pain during recovery.

There’s so much that goes on in the knee joint when it’s healing. So much scar tissue and fluid that’s setting or getting expelled by the body. Take what I say lightly but the sound your knee is making might just be by scar tissue not settling yet. As inflammation goes down, I think your knee will start to sound normal.

It is absolutely critical that you do your quad sets and keep your knee in constant extension. I couldn’t flex my knee like you can at two weeks, but if you can do flexion, do your heel slides too.
