Long time recovery
Tendonitis is now past and I have been spending time assessing what to do with the damage left behind and avoid the future of potential reccurrence. I have opted at this point to go lighter reps and more of them as well as adding cardio more heavily with a running program. I have already cut down 9 pounds by changing the diet around. I have to focus on what works best for me and the muscle types. Funny, but it seems like the only fast twitch muscles I have are in my calves and biceps/triceps. So I will work on thinning the fat off and see what is underneath. Keeping the protein sources up is no problem and on the run days it will be just as important as well as adding more carbs pre-run as not to catabolize muscle tissue. With the muscle training I have to make sure I alter the grip to hammer style so as not to stress the forearms too much. I need to re-evaluate my Captains of Crush grippers too and add more reps at the lower resistance. I would like to avoid tendonitis as much as possible.
