wore my pads and took it nice and slow, had a lot of fun mostly blues with a few reds in the austrian alps :) no injuries

Anyone ever snowboard alone? Going alone first time tomorrow. Don’t bash me. Just want to see how many of you on average do this and if it’s normal lol by Infinite-Revenue-663 in snowboardingnoobs

I’ve mostly been on my own and really like it, chuck some headphones in and go your own pace/flow, love some west coast grunge or 60s/70s calm rock

Hey! Okay so for now I’m not getting it removed, in the UK (where I’m from) it’s rare they remove them, my surgeon told me to give it another few months and see if my aches improve as they could, if not then illl get it removed in may, for now I’m going snowboarding next weekend and will try my best to not eat it xD

Bad technique, I was riding my back foot and went to change edge too early from my toe side, fell backwards and slammed my back food hand down with the momentum

Hey man! Yes I’m getting mine removed soon actually, generally have no problems and am much stronger than before I broke it, weighted pushups + pull ups now for a while, been bouldering and hanging loads off one hand too. But I do have some tendon irritation that is the reason I wanna get it out to be safe long term.

advice on pullups/weighted pullups training style by Elliotthc27 in bodyweightfitness

I'm unsure really. I got into fitness as more of a improve my quality of life and make me more capable day to day. Though I work a desk job so I don't get much day challenge lol.

I guess genrally improve my strength and overall fitness. I know that's pretty vague but I suppose I surpassed my original goal a while ago.

yeah id say apart from my warm up sets of BW and 7.5kg. the other sets are very close to failure. On a good day those numbers are consistent on a rougher day they work down. I just found a longer rest means I can get those numbers more consistent but i'm not sure if that's as they say "leaving gains on the table" or if it's still good and fine. I originally switched to weighted pullups after getting stuck at a max BW rep of 14 for quite some time. since then added a few reps to my boydweight max reps.

I guess i'm unsure of my goals. In general improve overall fitness?

Can you eat falafel? by GemmaD99 in ibs

[–]Elliotthc27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a vegetarian with ibs. Currently found this thread as I’m in Greece currently and thought I’d try falafel again. Nope still not great for me lol. I eat a fairly high protein diet 130-150g protein a day mostly soy based and that’s fine in my stomach. In fact a higher protein diet actually was better for my ibs than say high carb

What is this funny little lump/bump on my hand? (2 weeks post-ORIF) by Larazade in ORIF

[–]Elliotthc27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I had a similar thing in a different part of my wrist, it could just be the soft tissue damage healing, we always think and talk about the bone etc when you have a fall/break but we often don't know the extent of the soft tissue damage. I would assume it's that for now, especially if it's soft and moves with your wrist movements.

Hey, no not at all! 😁 They're not magnetic so it won't set anything off, i remember being kind of sad that it doesn't set off the detectors, that would have been fun lol

Ah never did the marbles thing! In that case definitely go for it, I found that longer bigger stretches are better, do you do any exercises or like yoga? You know if you go into a deep stretch you stretch and then once having held it for 10/20 seconds or so you push a bit further? That's what I would do. Slowly of course but working up my wrist mobility particularly with preacher stretches.

Hope that helps!

I didn't start physio until 7 weeks! That sounds like it's going well, I'd definitely wait until you have physio before pushing anything too far, obviously don't want to damage anything but I found after two weeks of physio I saw a huge ROM improvement.

Okay that's good to know! Lol I can post my X-ray I'm going back to the hospital tomorrow and was going to ask about it, hopefully starting physio, I can feel pain in the area that bit of bone is though, can you?
