Overcoming injuries at 41

[HDH]

Thanks for checkin' in. I started a different thread but never posted here.

I feel like I'm on vacation from this bitch. LOL

I had it going on a different board before I started it here.

The first week I took off totally. Didn't even set foot in the gym. I almost didn't make that either. I made 7 days though.

My elbow isn't anywhere near where I'd like it to be but everything else is fine.

I'm only doing cardio this week to give it some more time. Honestly, I don't think another week is gonna get it.

I need for it to get better. If I go back to soon I'll just be in the same boat. I don't like this boat. Feels like the Titanic. LOL

I've run med carbs this week and last week. I was hoping to at least get blood pumped into my muscles next week but playing it by ear.

I can probably hit some legs but deads are out of the question because they are what put it over the edge.

I can use a strap for that arm but I just need to let it go for now.

Gonna work on lowering BF% over the next 3 or 4 weeks.

I'll start running low carbs when I start training but don't want to go to low while I'm not.

I don't need the muscle loss.

Thanks for the updates, will try and find your other current thread. Sorry I bumped this one back up to the top!

With you saying that you'll be running low carbs when you start back training, is that just to fast track the fat loss? Do you find it affects your training at all or not so much?

No worries on it getting bumped up.

I'll be running 100 carbs per day for low.

I run 250 to 300 for med and 600 to 700 for high.

The low carbs mixed with higher protein, higher fat and cardio give me a good conditioned look.

It's mainly for the fat loss though.

Here's the thread-
