How old are you dude?

 

Cyber Monday score!

 

27

Torn hamstring tendon
Two shoulder dislocations leading to surgery to repair the cuff
Broken foot requiring surgical repair

All but the final shoulder dislocation were sports injuries. That was a car accident.

YOLO.

 

Does it work?

 

And hip issues?

 

Why would it not?

 

Give it 3 weeks you’ll be like I waisted money on this piece of shit lol

 

Squatted today. Finished with a new PR on back skwats at 345 for 2. I knew i could do it but I hadn't attempted to do more than what my 531 program was saying to do.

 

Yeah piriformis syndrome (pissed off muscle).
When I broke my foot two incompetent docs couldn’t read xrays spanning over a year, a CT, or an MRI. I walked on a broken arthritic foot for that year. Wore a boot for several months until I saw a competent surgeon who had to rebrake the foot.
Injury, boot, surgery, crutches, more boot, carbon plate over 18 months I don’t walk on my left foot right... hip issues.

I also sit on my ass at a desk 10 hours a day hunched in my chair. That doesn’t help either lol.

 

IDK I’ve never tried one. Wondering if it helps.

 

Holy shit man

 

Don’t go to podiatrists

 

Nah, I bought it for my girlfriend. She's a physical therapist and uses it all the time at work.

They do. See above comment.

 

Consider grabbing one of these - https://www.varidesk.com/

You got one you want to sell? lol

 

My ex boss had one of those. I would love one! I’m just not sure my office will put up the cash considering they bought me a new chair.
I need the full desk because I use multiple monitors.

 

I have twin monitors on my varidesk. I love it.

 

Yeah, I've got a complete standing desk at work which is nice.

 

I work from home most the time. I bought myself an adjustable desk from Ikea. It’s great. Also got one of those standing mats too. Good purchase.

 

yeah I want one of those standing mats. i commonly have the pleasure of staring at 7 monitors, 8 - 16hrs a day lol I try to stand 2 - 4 hours of the day due to on going back issues.

 

Ocean State Job Lot has a great deal on these if you have one nearby
