I need to start doing pullups to get some upper body strength. I can "feel it" a little when I hit 3i against a net. IDK how far I can hit it, but it feels way more solid. We'll see tomorrow.

More Pilates and Yoga today. Trying to get my intercostal and obliques worked a little before my first round in a week tomorrow morning.

Any of you guys mix oats into your shakes? I've started blending old fashioned oats in my shakes for better carbs and some fiber, and it's surprisingly tasty.

I started doing this a few weeks ago following this recipe .  I do like the texture and the good source of carbs.  I throw in some peanut butter sometimes to up the calories.  Good stuff.

I am sore today after doing 5x5 squats, bench, and deadlift on Saturday.

Just went through a lite workout today. Just trying to gain some range of motion back. My hips are still bothering me. Though the pain doesn't linger as long as it use to. Still the same, I start doing anything that involves hip flexion over a a period of time and I get some hip pain. Give it a few minutes of non-activity, or just walking around and the pain goes away.

Hopefully I am on the tail end of this.

I think it might be time to get into yoga. My hamstrings and calf muscles were way tight today.

On a good note, my back seems to be fully healed on me. I was able to perform some stretches that I wasn't able to about 3 weeks ago.

I hate lingering injuries. :censored:

Having been working out at company gym for the last 2 weeks.   I picked the work out that will improve my golf game.   I've also used treadmill for 20 mins.  This is going to be my routine hereon.   The work out is part of my 3 pronged approach to improve my golf game this year.  The other two are taking lessons (in progress), and upgrading my club set (fitted, arrived/arriving).

Having trouble getting back into workouts post holidays. I am suffering through severe bursitis in my right knee due to working around the house, removed and laid new flooring. Been two weeks now and still sore and limpy.

Finally got in to see the Dr. this morning. Initial diagnosis on the upper back is a Trapezius sprain, and I have a visit with the spine specialist later this month for the neck/shoulder issue, and PT starts this afternoon. Good news is he said it's fine to workout, just avoid any workouts that involve the trap muscles. Looks like back day is gonna be a lot of pullups haha.

Not sure if it could have been better or worse but at least you have a diagnosis and have a plan for making a full recovery.  Hopefully it won't take too long.

As for me, I got back on the horse again after spending pretty much the last two and a half weeks at my moms.

Bent-Over Dumbbell Rows: 25lbs each arm x 3 x 12

Upright rows: 40lbs x 3 x (12/12/8)

Dumbbell Curls:  10lbs x 3 x 8

Found during the dumbbell curls that my left arm struggled about with the weight and my right arm was ok with it.  Not sure if I should drop the weight and do a weight that both arms would be comfortable with or not or keep at is and have the left arm build up to where the right arm currently is.

Also ran 40 minutes on the treadmill and burned 472 calories.  Didn't push myself and did the same workout as the first time I ran on it but it certainly felt easier today than it did then.

I have also lost 11 pounds in the last month.  Would liked to have lost more but I think with the holidays, it was probably unrealistic.  I'm debating changing my eating plan on myfitnesspal.com, but I am proud to say that I've put in 175g of protein in me today and I haven't had dinner yet.  I think that's the most I've had in a day so far.  1300 calories in the day thus far, too, so feeling good about that.

Spoke too soon. Sprained trap is minor...neck pain and muscle weakness is due to severe neck trauma and whiplash. PT should take care of it and I can still lift. Whoop!

The plan is a short (30m) circuits session every other day. All weighted stuff (only 10/20kg at the moment) mostly around core muscles - 60 goblet press, 60 squats, 90 step-ups, 60 situps, 50 reps on shoulder press (70kg), 90 mountain climbers, 60 burpees (no weights!), 60 lat pulls (70kg). Probably a few other things that I've forgotten. Did it for the first time since before Christmas last night and my quads have a nice warm ache this morning.

Currently focusing on: Key 4 - shorter backswing.

Woke up today a bit sore after yesterday's but nowhere near as sore after the first workout.  I think I'm going to try and find some middle ground on the weights.

That's the way it goes. After a couple/few months, you'll have to work REALLY hard to get sore. (Except legs...they always suck)

That's the goal, though, right? I am under the impression that soreness is an indicator that you worked your muscles.

Yup. As long as you can differentiate soreness from pain. But also, over time your muscles just get more used to the abuse...and it won't be as sore.

Yeah, the first time I think I overdid it because I ended up in pain for a few days, haha.

      Best Shot of the Week

      By Shindig · Posted

      I shot an 85 yesterday without any shots that really stood out as spectacular to me.  On the first nine, the highest SG shots that didn't originate on a tee were a 22 yard chip from the rough to 6' and sinking a 10' putt (not the same hole).   On the second nine, driver 4-hybrid to 17' on a 421 yard par-4 was pretty cool.  Sinking a 15' putt for par on the 420-yard par-4 15th was my largest SG of the day (0.98 vs 10 hcp), and that one goes on my acting resume because when it went in, I acted like I wasn't surprised I made the putt.   I'm a lot happier with that round than this post indicates.  It shows I can play to a pretty good score (a 10-11 handicap shooting 85 on a 70.9 / 125 / 6400 yard is a good performance I think) without having to work miracles.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By Shindig · Posted

      Shot an 85 yesterday (posts as an 84).  40 first nine, 45 second nine.  Only two holes worse than bogey:  a double on a par-4 and a totally preventable snowman on the par-5 18th (the one where Arnold Palmer once made a 12 during the L.A. Open). Bogeyed every par-3.  Par-5s were 6-6-8 (there are only three).  Lots of work to improve upon these.  Especially performance on 18: wild tee shot, great recovery, good third I thought, but it somehow drew against a left-to-right wind and finished barely in bounds, where all I could do is smack with a putter towards the green.  And I did, leaving it in the rough for my fifth.  Chip way past the hole, putt 5' past the cup, a miss, and a tap in to complete the snowman.  Played the par-4s in a cumulative 5-over (there are eleven), one of which was a double.  Strokes gained: par-4s during the round gains 2.16 over the 5-handicap baseline, that's pretty cool. No birdies.  Only 5 GIR, 7 near-GIR, and one green hit on a full swing that wasn't for GIR (par-4 9th, drive, recovery, sand wedge to the green).

      Approach Play to Elevated / Lowered Greens?

      By Shindig · Posted

      I played this course yesterday (casual friendly round, not a tournament) with friends.  I told my playing partners up front I was going to try a second approach shot on #7, the hole I was describing.   I hit my tee shot to where I had 130 or so yards to the green from the fairway (per ShotScope GPS and also laser to a pin near the middle).  There was a decent wind in my face. If we hadn't had this conversation, I would have hit 7-iron (140 yard average under calm and flat conditions).   I played that shot, full normal swing, hit the green 24' short of the pin, made an easy two putt for a par.   My second attempt at the approach shot (which I hit right after my main one) was a 5-iron, using the swing I usually use to hit a 100-yard low shot (I'm not sure if it qualifies as a punch shot) where I'm trying to hit it straight and low, such as if I'm behind trees and attempting a recovery-and-advance.  I hit it decently well and the ball finished at the back of the green.  Incidentally, I've recently started a notebook for this course.  Somehow I don't have a lot written down despite having played this course semi-regularly for almost two decades (minus the times I'm not playing golf, of course).  I added that to my notes for this particular hole.  Next few casual rounds there, I think I'm going to hit an additional approach to that green with different clubs on the low shot and take notes.  It's a small sample size but it seems worth knowing instead of having to guess during an important round. As my handicap edges closer to single digits, I think it's good to have shots like this in the repertoire -- not only mechanically, but knowing situationally what I can do.  I recognize that the really good players tend to hit their stock shot on the vast majority of occasions, and I'm not about to try to shoehorn in punch shots everywhere, but knowing options into the wind and/or to a lowered green beyond "take more (or less) club" seems like a good thing.
