Heather -- they should just go ahead and give you your MD! Now I know who to ask the next time something hurts real bad, which, knowing me, will probably be soon! LOL... thanks, Marty. I will do my best to help anyone.

Barry, good workout. In terms of the wrist, yes, get an x-ray. However, it won't specifically show if a tendon is the culprit. That would be more of an MRI or a dynamic ultrasound. The x-ray would show if there's anything like a hairline fracture, bone fragments or calcium deposits, or if plates or screws are in their proper place or if they could have moved (does happen) and could cause something to catch like a tendon. If you have connections to a dynamic ultrasound, use it. Not only would it show what's actually happening as you mimic the movement that causes the problem, but it's also just really cool to see. The ultrasound will allow you to actually see the muscles move, the placement of the bones and see if there's anything abnormal. It's how we "diagnosed" my shoulder and wrist problem. Let me know if there's anything you need--questions, suggestions, etc. And then let me know what you do. Barry you could also have an ultrasound done to see how far along you are if you wanted....just an idea hell I am curious!....

Tues. 10/31 Traps and shoulders
FACE PULLS 12 w/u,12,12,12,10 weight increase each time
REAR DELTS w/KETTLE BELLS (starting to like this movement) 20 x 6 each arm 20 x 8 20 x 8
SHOULDER PRESS 8,8,6 went heavier than I had been.
SHRUGS 70 x 12 80 x 12 90 x 12 100 x 12
Finished w/shrugs instead of starting with them. I want to keep adding/subtracting moves for a while till I get a pattern I like and feel works.
Ever notice how you change from floor presses/bands/chains each week for your bench ? Just seems logical that you should vary the angle/handle/weight on most everything else you do. In order to cause some growth in the smaller muscle groups or the ones you miss by not adding variety it only seems logical.

11 / 3 Tris / Chest
V BAR PUSHDOWNS 15wu,12wu,8,8,8
DUMBELL FLYS 45 x 8 55 x 8 65 x 6 75 x 5
CLOSE GRIP BENCH 12,12,10,8

Not a big night but I'd like to turn Fri. into a speed night when I'm comfortable with my strength. It'd be gret to sit here and say I'm lifting in Clayton; but for now I just don't see it happening. No point going in to do less than I've done before. I'd rather take my time and go at least 625 when I'm able. We'll see when the time comes I guess.
