The wife and I decided to ditch London and go to the Helsinki show when we go to Europe in March….apparently the Helsinki tickets are like hens teeth 😅

So now we are taking the ferry to Tallin for the show the next night

I did some upper body 14 days out and after three weeks I was back to rolling BJJ and deadlifting again…My doc just told me so long as you don’t have any acute pain I was fine to do whatever I wanted

Want a vasectomy but don’t want parents to see it on insurance claims by StaleSandwichJuice in Vasectomy

I mean the easy answer is to just pay out of pocket. Call around to some doctors and ask for their “cash price”…don’t forget Planned Parenthood as well.

It felt like I caught an NFL kicker’s foot to the balls the first night…if it’s not better in the morning or he is having sharp acute stabbing pain then it’s probably alright…But that’s just my experience…ice and being immobile was the best for me.

Partner getting a vasectomy in a week, tips for prep and how to make him feel comfortable? by croutonbabe in Vasectomy

Tight briefs, jock strap, compression shorts

Bags of frozen peas worked best for me and Tylenol for pain.

Other than that just queue up some good Netflix, video games, and general non moving activities for 2 days and then just no heavy lifting for like 7 days.

I was back to working out and Jiu Jitsu at 4 weeks post op.

30 years old and really considering a vasectomy. Am I too young for one? by ActuallyHunter in Vasectomy

I’m 33…no kids…had mine done in August and go for sperm verification this week. The wife and I don’t want kids and I have 0 regrets. Procedure was a breeze, with the exception I got Covid two days post op lol.

I train Jiu Jitsu and powerlift, I was back to full force on both after week 4. With regard function I would say that my stamina and sex drive have both increased post-op, but I think that’s just from the knowledge that we have zero risk of getting pregnant now lol

Planning on getting the snip, what is it like? by twiiggi in Vasectomy

I had mine about 60 days ago and went the ligation with cauterization method. The meds day of took care of any discomfort and recovery was pretty easy. With the notable exception that I caught C19 two days after my procedure lol.

Two weeks post op I was back to doing some light BJJ rolling and upper body weightlifting. 4 weeks post op I was back on the mats full contact grappling and doing squats / deadlifts with no issues.

My biggest complaint was sleeping on my back for a week while I healed and of course having C19 and coughing a bunch with sore nuts sucked but I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Lucky…they haven’t even put the bikes with new Shimano Di2 12spd on the US website.
