Distal bicep reattachment....

[Addicted]

May 30th....anybody had this procedure done? Any insight?

I was thinking of doing low dose test to try to keep as much muscle during recovery, my diet is always clean, so that's not a worry.

Thanks in advance...

I don't know about the elbow end but when I tore my pec, I also blew out my bicep on the upper end. I still have a golf ball size 'missing chunk' in my bicep. I'd encourage you not to use gear while recovering from this. After my first pec repair, I thought I'd stay on cycle to help recover.......that led to a 2nd tear...which led to a 3rd.

The recovery and rehab will be short, if you let it heal. What's a few extra weeks going to hurt ? Hell, I've spent the better part of 5 yrs trying to get back to normal.\

Good luck

Thanks for the advice...I still plan on training legs as soon as possible, and I agree it's probably a good idea to back off completely and let the tendon heal.

Well when you ride 100 days out the season and launch off of 30 foot cliffs shit like that is bound to happen . Looks like you best bet is puttin that snowboard away for good

BTW, here's a pic of the pup when I first got him...looks a lot different now, I'll bring him by the store when you get back.
