Rehab Training wk3

BEFORE he ruined his voice (his health and his sanity) with drink and drugs, Ozzy Osborne gave Black Sabbath something I can only describe as soul. This week I've been training to 'Volume 4' and various other Sabbath albums from the early- to mid-seventies.


It's going to be another several weeks before I can take off the brace and start lifting tiny weights with my reattached right bicep. In the mean time I've reacquainted myself with cambered bar squats as I find them more beneficial than the belt squat machine, which seems to place a lot more stress on the vastus medialis.
