Cheers peeps :grin: Feels good to get a sweat on again :nod: Had some devasting news today from my physio... she's told me i'm not allowed to squat for a month :cry: so my hip can get better, pretty gutted but dems the brakes, would rather get it sorted now then make it worse down the track.

So I'm gonna need replacements exercises to make up for it

suggestions please.....

Single leg squat :grin:

Nuts! still, a month will pass quickly, just think of it as time to work on that demon bench of yours!

Alternatives: Leg extensions, although they focus on the 'teardrop' they do work quads. The only other thing I could think of would be lunges, but I'm not sure what physio would say.

[Big john]

she'll be subbing em squats for curls in the rack! 8)

[morattigirl]

gutted!

brutal session! nice \:D/

Cheers Mike and yup ya could say that!

Single leg squat :grin:

Ha lol have you tried these? :pfft: I can do all of probably 3 without losing balance

Yup I can still do Combat, play touch, pretty much everything. It's just when I'm squatting it's compressing that area causing pain. I booked in for a Ultrasound today so got that next week, then they'll decide whether to give me a steroid injection? Hmmmm :-s

Yup time does seem to be flying of late that's for sure! Demon bench :oops: hehe still working on it TFB

And lunges are sweet as & I don't mind doing them either, it's just that whole hip compression thing :evil: I guess some Abductor & Adductor exercises too and loads of calves :grin:

I think squeezing his testicles would have been appropriate in that situation :pfft:

[mike27]

might have to give one of these circuits a go!!

[morattigirl]

might have to give one of these circuits a go!!

full body circuit?

For sure dude! That circuit there I copied off John and yep there's abit of everything in there, I forgot to mention that it's 10 x reps for each exercise too. John did his weights at 50% of 1RM but I did mine at a weight where I felt it was actually doing something and because there's only 10 reps....

If you have a scroll back thru my pages there's another workout in there where there's 18 or so exercises and you do them all for 1 minute each non-stop trying to get as many reps as possible per exercise and it's all bodyweight.

Try that out dude, it's a goodie :grin:
