Dam. Thanks everyone! I been using a catheter for over 10 years now. I know it sounds bad. And it was at first but I’m mostly used to it now. It’s more of an annoyance now. It also causes me to not stay hydrated well because the more water I drink the more I have to pee, obviously. So that’s always hurt my BB and would be nice to not worry about also. But enough about that bull crap. I’ll update when I get the test procedure done. I’ll be off work for a few days and have plenty of time to fill you in.
I made it to the gym once this week. My workouts are pretty pathetic too. I started with 10min of HITT on the bike for legs. Hammer strength isolateral rows for back. Weighted dip machine for chest. Preacher curls for biceps and cable extensions for triceps. My arms and legs are most noticeable in looking smaller. I was definitely sore the next day. Since I’m only going once a week or so I’m doing full body. Switching up the exercises each time.

@beefnewton, not even close to
@genetic freak! If that man didn’t do as much cardio as he likes to do he would be twice as big as he is considering how much he abuses himself in the gym. I’m just lucky to have half way decent genetics that let me get by with half the effort as him. If I could lift and eat like GF maybe I could take him. But he would literally run circles around me afterwards. Thank you though! Appreciate the compliment but I’m not even in the same league buddy! That man is a beast! He’s always been my inspiration to be better ever since I met him.

@rawdeal, thanks! Yeah, it is hard to pick an emoji sometimes. Especially after awkward personal posts like that. Lol. I do the same. I definitely don’t give a shit what you guys know about me. I often find myself spilling my guts out to you guys. And I can’t thank you all enough for just listening!

@Yano, thanks my man! I had been trying to fallow your log I just haven’t had time lately. Always liked it! With your videos too. I don’t know how your body hasn’t broken yet. Haha

@Heady Muscle, not sure how much you gonna learn but maybe laughing at my sorry ass will brighten your day. That’s my hope anyways. Haha

@Wilson6, it honestly was devastating when I had to start using them. But sometimes you have to do what you have to do. The gym definitely helped me get over it!
Skip this section if you don’t want to hear about my bladder issue. My bladder was twice the size on a normal bladder. I could still pee but I was only peeing what the pressure had bulked up from bladder stretched out. My bladder would still be half full after going. Bladder was pushing on my intestines and causing me digestive issues. I actually went to doctors about my stomach when he asked me if I had to pee. I said nope. He said well your bladder seems very full and is pushing on everything. If you got into a car accident your bladder could rupture from the seatbelt. So that scared me enough to do something about it. Urologists said hopefully after using catheter for a little while your bladder size will go back to normal and I could stop using them. That never happened. Did a bunch of tests and my bladder muscle has like 10% function. This device I’m gonna try at the end of the month basically gives the muscle the signal our brain should give it. A lot of older people have issues with losing that signal also. But if the muscle itself is actually damaged then it probably won’t work. I remember being in a bad car accident when I was 20 or so. Head on collision. I was lucky as hell and only had a bruised knee and bruised kidney they said because I was pissing blood. But I remember something didn’t feel right after that when I would pee. Think that’s when it started. I think the muscle is damaged but that’s me being a pessimist. Hopefully im wrong. I’ve had an mri done of my lower back when I had sciatica the first time and I asked the doctor if he could see anything that might cause my bladder issue. Like maybe that nerve or disc connected to that nerve looked damaged or compressed. He said no. All looked normal. So my negative ass doesn’t think this procedure is gonna work. And I don’t think they do bladder transplants yet. I just don’t see myself being able to do this when I’m 80. And what I don’t understand is why I can’t even piss myself when I have to go real bad. You would think It would start coming out when the pressure built up. But it won’t. I’ve tried waiting till it felt like my bladder was gonna explode and I would push and maybe a drop would come out. It’s like the muscle that pushes doesn’t work anymore and the muscle that holds it in is locked up. And these doctors have no answers. They’re morons! And don’t get me started on my issue with getting the catheter in sometimes. That will be a story for another day. This is already turning into a ramble no gives a shit about here. Lol.

@MR. BMJ, thanks for the encouragement! And good point about staying lean. I do take berberine every day to help. I’ve never been a big eater though. Only time I could eat a lot was after a big cut on no to low carbs. I could not get full! Man, if I could eat like that all the time I would be huge! And idk what is up with my elbows. Most people have shoulder or knee problems. Not me. It’s my elbows! Well, and my back. But every time I lift now my elbows hurt. Even after giving them a long break. But hopefully some npp will help. Haha. When I have my comeback!

@Glycomann, thanks! I’m trying to stay positive. Definitely harder some days.
