Possible trapped nerve.

[Gilder]

Rolled my ankle a year ago jumping off a shallow dock (miracle it didn't fracture) It still hurts a year later. Then again, I never rested and rode my motorcycle around plenty.

Sounds like you've done some nerve damage. Be careful man. Do an ice bucket. Leave your foot in there 20 minutes at a time. Elevate it during breaks. This helped mine a lot.

Skateboarder since the 90's here! Rolling ankles was a common occurrence. I rolled it for the last time about 2 years ago.. That was the end for me, that was a rolling that never healed back up right.. If i attempt to kickflip now, my ankle is super stiff. If i ignore the stiffness, and flick it like i normally would, it creates this strange little darting pain in a specific spot, and then it itches instantly after.. That's my ankle story...

I jumped off a ledge at a local waterfall, about 10 ft drop, right after my birthday last year and my body reminded me I’m over 30 when I landed square on my right heel. Didn’t have health insurance, so I have no idea whether I fractured anything. Limped for a few weeks. Perfectly fine most of the time but still aches when I get really active. I want to do AT / PCT and hope this doesn’t stop me.

Fucking around I put up 275 flat bench yesterday after a bunch of sets. That's a PR for me. 300 has always been my life goal. Looks like I'm going to be able to destroy that soon. My biggest issue is a spotter since I workout alone. I might have to start working out with my brother so he can spot me.

My man! Well done! You basically benched 2 bigjeff100's. Grats! I'm in the same boat, i work out alone.. G.F ditched me in the gym game a while back! But I've always wanted to check my max reps for things like a squat or a press.. Darn all of you for living in florida!

I like to call a bro over to help me lift way more than my max. After they struggle to help me get it up I jump off the bench and go yeah bitch! new record. then I go to give them 5 and just before their hand reaches mine I pull it away and stroke my hair and go too slow. After that I go to the bathroom and smoke a victory cigarette.

When people ask me to spot them I pretend like i'm helping them pull it up even when they don't ask for it yet, but really im pushing down on it. I make sure it gets back down to their chest, and call over some cute chicks to help us try to pull it off the poor sap. After me and the hot chicks get it off him I go to give them 5, but I pull my hand back right before they hit it and grab my dick and go honk honk. That normally gets me laid.

Coming from the guy trying to use his vet card for more e-experience in 20 yo elf sim. I’m going to go ahead and guess you aren’t getting many PRs these days.

Hope this helps.
