MG's log

I tested the recumbent bike that I rent for rehab and it was a disaster. I did 25 kilometers, burnt only 450 cals and I'm in a lot of pain. How come knee is fine when I walk on the treadmill but hurts like hell when I ride that bike?

Chest/back

Push ups (120)
Chest press
Flys
Chest press neutral grip
Pull overs

Deadlifts
One arm rows
Wide rows

1 set of 36 reps of each.
 
Last workout before a well deserved pre surgery rest.

Upper body

Frontal raises
External rotations
Lateral raises

Kickbacks
One arm overhead extensions

Biceps curls
Hammer curls
Wrist curls

Deadlifts
One arm rows

Flys
Chest press
Chest press neutral grip

1 set of 36 each

Abs
200 reps
 
As you know I had TKR on July 3rd and have been focusing on rehab which is a bitch (lack of sleep, lots of pain, lack of progress). But a guy at another board told me to start hitting the upper body again to fight depression.

I rejoined my old gym. This way I will be able to work on machines and with more weight than I have here.

I did a full body with light weights to start with

- Lat pulldowns
- Seated rows
- Pec deck
- Shoulder press
- dips
- triceps press downs
- Cable curls
- Concentration curls
- Adductors
- Abductors
- Leg curls (I kept the weight really low due to the knee)
- Leg extensions (same as above)
- Back extensions
- Abs

3 sets of 10 to 12 reps -- everything back to back
 
Hitting the gym helps me sleep. I haven't had a good night sleep since TKR. I take naps during the day to compensate.

Another upper body workout

Back extensions
Seated rows

Shoulder press
Seated lateral raises

Chest press
Pec deck

Cable curls
Concentration curls

Triceps push downs
Weighted dips

Hip Abduction
Hip Adduction

Seated leg curls (cannot bend more than 90 degrees yet but every rep helps loosen up the knee a bit)
Leg extensions

3 sets of 12 reps of each, everything back to back.
 
I got rid of the recumbent bike since I couldn't use it. I did full rotations on the elliptical yesterday but cannot ride a stationary bike yet.

I'm gonna change my split and train EOD again. 2 muscles a day, 2 to 3 exercises per muscle, 3 sets of 10 to 15 reps, everything back to back.
 
Right now I lift 5 times a week

Mon -- chest and back
Tues -- shoulders and arms
Wed -- rest or circuit training
Thu -- same as Monday
Fri -- same as Tuesday

And since early this week I do cardio twice a day, one session fasted cardio upon waking up and another one around 3PM. I burn between 350 and 500 cals per session.
