Ok, here we go then, life as a BB started around 25 years ago, I played around for years, but ended up with a presentable figure, got into it in a serious mode in 1990 and worked bloody hard for 5 years. I lost me Mum in 1996 and it crucified me, attended IT for around 6 weeks sometimes 3 or 4 times a day and finally lost her. I was never able to go back to the gym as I missed Mum going on because I had gone to the gym on the day she passed and despite rushing down to the hospital she had gone; I know she had not come round for the previous 2 weeks but never the less I blamed myself for being in the gym; and I never went back.....UNTIL.
6 weeks ago; stay with me. 3 years ago I had major spine surgery L1 and L3 had fully prolapsed, middle and both ends was I had major surgery, pins fitted and fusion, I was told my bladder was coming out and my left leg would be of no use to me, 6 hours later I came round, oh, by the way, I was told the heavy duty squatting was almost certainly the cause, I take that with a pinch of salt though, best part of hospital was chucking in massive amounts of morphine, I did not have a scooby what bloody planet I was on, so where was I? Oh yes, waking up in the recovery room, shucks, what a fright. I will carry that on in the next update.
For the purists I peaked at 205 pounds back in the 90,s, 46 chest, 32 waist 17" and a bit guns thighs 25". 6 weeks ago I was 170 pounds 41 chest, 13 and a bit guns 36 waist and 21" legs, (not long; around!!!!)
I’ll try not to get to boring with this, but feel it is important to tell you about my own personal rise and fall and what I consider to be a rise yet again, and yes I am 52 yrs old next Birthday.
Waking up from that operation and present stats after 6 weeks….To be continued soon
