Soooo.........update.......

you guys are my heroes!!!

After changing my diet, adding the right kinds of fat and macros, 2 weeks later I can already feel a huge difference!

I have significantly less pain, even on the days I am at the gym strength training. I am still cautions about calf excises as they seem to be what triggers more pain. But, on the whole, this is one happy camper here!!!

I can not Thank you guys enough! It feels soooo good to be able to be living an active life again with out the fear of pain associated with being active. Though I am not where I used to be with the level of activity, I am right below it. For now, I am very happy with that!

 

😀😀😀😀👍👍👍👍

So happy to hear that Katie :-)

 

Too often people don't realize the power of food and are brainwashed into the "take a pill for it" mentality that unfortunately is the crux of the American medical system.

I haven't seen them, I will go look for them. I use all you videos as guides for proper form and how to's at the gym. I'm sure I look pretty funny watching YouTube, trying the lift, the going back to YouTube to check again. Lol

Pumped!!!! So, today was shouldEr and calf day at the gym....

i was nervous about the calf routine based on my previous attempts which resulted in immediate pain.

I am SOOOO happy to report that I was able to successfully complete every one of the exercises with NO pain what so ever...minus the lactic acid burn. I was even able to do calf raises on the standing calf machine at 55 lbs! The seated at only 25, but hey! 25 is better than not being able to do them at all.

I can't tell you how good this feels!!
