April 2013 Back Day... Meso 02

Mesocycle 02
Training Split A (Current)
Mondays/Wednesdays/Fridays

The volume of this Training split is ridiculous. But I not only have to train what I can train to pre collusion (aesthetic) standard, but I also have to

train/rehabilitate light load through all of major/minor muscle groups until normal function/range resides. I'm unable to engage fully in life with physical restrictions so Rehabilitation is my other full-time job. Once rehabed/fully recovered what can be, I'll be able to apply a normal training split, freeing up 4 hours out of my daily split (Currently 7 hours daily split). There's major impact & rationale for modifications in training, which includes daily light alignment/uni-lateral delivery. Impact on all training comes from the following; 
  1. Long-term (Previously untreated) Whiplash C1/C2 (Spinal Axel/Neck)
  2. Bruised Right Tib/Fib/Knee cap lateral aspect (Bone edemia's still showing on MRI 1 year later) 
  3. Operated Right Hip joint/Leg (Superior/Anterior Lateral aspects) major reconstruction sutures/roped ligaments with permanent loss of a critical ligament (Ligamentum Teres) currently 5 months into recovery/healing from surgical intervention.
