Hi guys...just dropped in to say that I am finally healthy enough to start lifting again. Been back at it about a month now and everything is going well. Dropped about 16 pounds back off so far so I only have about 500 to be back where I was lol. ANYWAY again just saying hi to my old e-friends on here.

Hey OS great to have ya back! Been a long time, what happened?

I think I posted it here but maybe not...I went from 325 pounds down to 231 and doing judo , some jujitsu and sub grappling. I was training one day and there was a pro fighter who offered me a fight in a show he was promoting. I was 40 at the time so I was flattered and excited. I accepted and 2 days later was dead lifting and the bar rolled on me. I tried to pick it up anyway. Spent 6 months only able to stand straight or lay flat, spent a LOT of money at the chiro with limited relief. ALMOST 2 years of trying to start working out again only to hav emy back just give me fits. I bought a pair of inversion boots and used em ONE TIME, and my back was 90% better. I am back to lifting and doing the judo / grappling. I went back up to 296 pounds and am already back down to 278 ( this morning). My son fought his first MMA fight last night ( lost on a very bad stoppage but I am not bitter lol) and it got me wanting to try it even though I am 41 years old SO I gotta drop at least 50 more pounds...

Just now able to get back at the judo. My son had his first MMA match last sat night. He lost on a BAD BAD stoppage. He won the first round had the opponent staggered and mounted when the bell rang. 23 seconds into the second round he got hit, went to his knees covered and grabbed the opponents legs for a takedown and the ref stopped the fight. It was so bad the promoter apologized to me and my son, the ohio athletic commissioners who were there called and waived the mandatory 30 day suspension after a stoppage due to it being so bad, AND his opponent apologized for it. He did very well for his first fight after only about a week and a half of training.
