Back from an exended absence

Superdave24

Hello everyone, I am back from an overly extended time off. December of 2011 I had Rotatorcuff surgery in which my bicep and ligaments were torn as well. The recovery was about 5 months but I wasn't motivated to get back into the gym at the time the doctor said i was ready. I felt that if i would have gone back that early i might push myself a little to hard and re-injured it.
Well, its 2013 and I am back on track starting this past weekend. Today is the first time i have logged in since before Thanksgivng 2011. My goal is to lose 15-20lbs. in the next two months and prepare my body for a rigorous training event sometime in March or April of his year.

That's awesome, Superdave! I am with you all the way!
Go go go and hang in there!
We will burn that fat together!

How did you tear your rotator cuff?
Ouch! It is a very tough one to heal and rehab. The process is very painful. I used to work in a physical therapy clinic and we treated many cases of torn rotator cuffs.
