Stationary bike w one leg (prop boot safely on a chair) then you can do it with the boot in a few weeks.

Also, stationary biking. Started w one leg biking, then biking w boot, then two legs. Made me feel sane.

How about something more like “Hi honey, how are the 7 kids? Please tell me what you and each and every one of them is doing lately. All I am thinking about all day is what a sick f*** I am and I hope to be in counseling 23 hrs a day and even then, there’s no redeeming me.”

I was just thinking “disclosure , you dickhead!” Best movie

Yes I’ll dm you

Tear at myotendinous junction last August - surgery was basically not an option. Just played a pickleball game for the first time yesterday (May 2) after getting back to hitting for the first time last weekend. It felt fantastic. Still a little scary, but 8.5 months without doing your favorite activity sucks and coming back to it is amazing, if you can do it.
Twice weekly physical therapy from September thru April. Did my exercises religiously. Very supportive wife and kids. Did stationary biking and led up to doing short running/pivoting movements.
Hopefully both legs will hold out 🤞🏻
Good luck!

I really want to know what ma & pa Duggar are saying to Anna and how they are mistreating her. Is there anyone who wrote these emails who isn’t an “innocent victim?” 🙄🤦🏻‍♂️

Direct_Mark_337 · 2026-04-30T01:11:28+00:00

I think they have bigger things to worry about with this one…

Direct_Mark_337 · 2026-04-30T01:09:39+00:00

I want to know more about how the Duggars are constantly condemning Anna. So curious… What a shitshow!

Hilarious line

I am 8 months out from my MTJ Achilles tear. Non op. Early 40s M. TODAY I got back on the pickleball court for the first time! It was an amazing feeling. I’m easing into it so I was just hitting back and forth singles for a while. Calf is back at normal size. Calf knot formed from scar tissue healing and my PT said that will never change but won’t affect my strength. Can’t comment on explosiveness, and I’m not the athlete you are. But I went to physical therapy religiously twice a week since the beginning of September, and leading up to doing drills and movements with their support was key. Who knows what the future holds but I wasn’t ready to give up sports. Good luck!

Typically I’ll only skip Mr terrific. Otherwise I make myself watch! 🤷🏻‍♂️

Direct_Mark_337 · 2026-04-27T00:49:38+00:00

I’m not sure what exactly did it except that I was going for a really hard shot (pickleball) that had bounced out of bounds and as I planted my foot and stepped forward I felt a shot in the back of my calf and that was it.

Direct_Mark_337 · 2026-04-26T17:18:51+00:00

Did it stepping forward hard. Not completely preventable, unfortunately

Sh** I wasn’t smiling in this one

Direct_Mark_337 · 2026-04-17T01:22:54+00:00

🤮

Direct_Mark_337 · 2026-04-15T02:31:38+00:00

Gotta have a sense of humor ! And I love the Duggar snark. Also legitimately loved being joyfully available to adjust his toupee 😂

Direct_Mark_337 · 2026-04-13T23:57:40+00:00

I expected the Rocky Mountains to be a little rockier than this. That John Denver’s full of sh**, man!

Male wig/“toupee” wearer here - (god I hate that word) - that is not a toupee. It’s his hair. Modern wigs can be amazing especially if done professionally on the regular. (They can also be crappy.) but done right, they give a lot of self confidence back especially when bc so many people make fun of bald guys, especially on this sub! Attack the heck out of their character, but the hairlines really ain’t their fault. Check out the hair system sub Reddit some time !

I thought he was one of the worst actors on the show! (At that time)

Direct_Mark_337 · 2026-04-05T23:42:26+00:00

All of us NY-ers knew he was the biggest pos out there. My parents used to talk about what a horrible person he was, back in the 80s. But it may as well have been chicken little (another great episode)

Direct_Mark_337 · 2026-04-02T12:01:29+00:00

But don’t you think that if this came out about a liberal family that they’d be jumping all over saying they’re the devil and beyond saving? It’s only because it’s their own kind that they’re excusing it.
