My fucking gains fit. 8-10 weeks of not walking or working out. I'm in a WHEELCHAIR.
Nightmares. My legs may never be the same. All those years of hard work, gone. What do I do? How do I work the muscle and try to keep my gains as much as possible?
Will eating excess protein help? Maybe flexing the muscle so they don't atrophy as much?
>>37445777
she suck yo cock tho right?
>>37445777
Did you get that fuckers info?
Post picture of wheelchair. They have newer models that work your leg muscles while you sit in them, with contractor/relaxor fits. If they gave you one of those, I can identify it.
>>37445777
Did you at least get to gibe that qt som hot criple action?
Real talk, you did well and should feel proud. Now take a year or so off of work, training and whatever and focus on learning new stuff like a new launguage, how to code, playing an instrument, anything. There are other kinds of gains than just physical.
at least you were a super hero and possibly saved someones life.
Jesus fucking Christ
You srs, anon?

>implying
>>37445777
That is some Hemingway manly shit. You sacrificed your gains to save a life. You also now have the best third date story of all time. Just do your PT and start over. It will be worth it.
>>37445777
Pls post mangled legs as proof.
>>37445881
And?
summer's over, OP.
What color was the truck?
>>37445827
>>37445813
By cute and little I mean 10.
her sister thanked me and I got her number but it's only been a few days
>>37445855
I know how to program and stuff, but maybe I'll learn another language. I don't know if I can stop for an entire year though.
might get pictures if I can be bothered to hobble over to my phone
>>37445895
>>37445930
and, we aren't on /tv/
>>37445941
Perfect amount of time. Any longer might give the impression you are trying to play her.
And you wont come off as thirsty, because you are bored, stuck at home in a wheelchair with nothing better to do than hit her up.
Go for it anon.
If you have the 'tism, just think of this as training to get rid of it - by talking to as many grills as possible.
If you dont have the 'tismo, then you're golden, pony boy
Thats what you get for being a white knight
>>37445941
pics of her sister
>>37445777
better have at least gotten a blowjob out of that shit, son
if not from her, then from her mom/dad
should teach you a valuable lesson about trying to save others. put yourself first.
>>37445973
Well shes definitely cute, and I'm only slightly socially retarded. Problem is how I feel is shit physically and mentally. I should be happy I saved someone but years of work potentially gone.
>>37445981
The thought of seeing a kid get mangled was enough motivation.
>>37445777
Did you sue the truck driver? You should milk this for as much cash as possible
>>37446011
how old is the sister?
>>37446011
>8-10 weeks of not working out
>years of work potentially gone
don't be stoopid
>>37446019
No. 100% the fault of the kid for walking across the street with no crosswalk. Truck driver helped pay my bills though, he wasn't at fault.
>>37446026
20
>>37446011
Years of work gone, sure.... but those years of work gave you the ability to do what you did. It was not in vain
Sometimes... gains are not just for show
>>37446011
a kid did get mangled tho
>>37446011
you'll get through anon, stay strong
in a couple years tops you will remember this shit and you will feel as the hero you are, you are among the few people on earth who actually put their lifes on the line for someone elses, and that may sound stupid for some people but what if you were the person being saved? or your kid?
>>37446073
Nah she had bruises and some cuts.
>>37446084
>>37446050
Maybe. I hope I feel better about it later, because I feel like shit about it now. I'm sure it'll get better.
Just worried how long it'll take for recover and then to get back where I was.
>>37446073
>>37446117
he meant you anon
>>37446136
Oh
I haven't been a kid for awhile.
Are your legs completely fucked or is there a chance for you to walk again? You did a great thing anon
>>37446165
No, they're just broken bones. It was a clean break too, mostly.
If I was wheelchair for life I'd probably kill myself. They did tell me recovery will take awhile though.
>>37446185
So you're just gonna do upper body workout until your legs are all right ?
>>37446185
can you still do upper body stuff?
nothing is more alpha than wheelchair bro going into the gym and benching some big weight
>>37446185
you're going to be fine
http://startingstrength.com/article/barbell_training_as_rehab
>>37446208
>>37446210
I'm not sure how to go about that. I was told not to exercise outside of body weight, but I'd definitely go to the gym. Probably is setting up weights and stuff would be difficult.
maybe I'll go with someone
>>37446216
thanks for this I'll take a look
>Hey did i tell you how i rescued a little girl from getting ran over by a truck?
Gdam op you're going to get so much pussy with this story man
>>37445777
I just got forearm splints and was pissed off at my body but then I read this... I wonder how you feel.
>>37446233
Chest supported rowing, benching and pretty much all upper body isos don't really require legs (inb hurrdurr leg drahve)
>>37446210
Joe Swanson mode
>>37446311
I'll have to look in to that. Might be kind of awkward jumping out of a wheelchair to bench but I think I'll do it.
thanks /fit/
>>37445868
Yeah really. Is this for real?
>>37446928
Just pretend it isn't and I need tips for not falling in to depression and upper body building.
>>37445777
why didn't you shout at her to gtfo the road
>>37445777
Wow I'm so proud of you Anon!!! That's such a great thing for you to do. I'm sure the sacrifice is worth saving a little girl's life. Her parents would be destroyed if they lost her.
Also don't worry. You will get your gains back. I just had ACL reconstruction. Just focus on upper body. When you start Physical Therapy, do everything they say. Let pain be your guide. My leg is still shitty 2mo later but I can walk around freely and climb stairs and even jog for 90 seconds (I couldn't even walk normally a month ago). I believe in you. You have your whole life to get your gains back and you will, along with me and other injured /fit/izens.
>>37445777
Don't forget, the kid you saved will one day turn 18 and will most likely want to thank her savior again *wink wink nudge nudge* knowwhatImean
>>37446441
Top fucking kek
>>37445777
Putting "Cute little girl" alongside that pic can be very misleading.
vis-Ã -vis:
>>37445813
>>37447200
Yeah, my bad. She is cute though.
>>37445777
That sucks brother. Hope it heals right. I have a saved another/hit by a truck story too but it's less heroic.
>18, at prom.
>Best friend gets absolutely wasted at after party, he's barely conscious so I give him a lift home
>At traffic lights, he drunkenly just gets out the car and wanders into oncoming traffic.
>Chase after him, push him out of the way of an oncoming semi just in time.
>Get clipped myself though.
>nothing broken but winded and bruised.
>In pain and furious at drunken friend,
>bundle him into car, drive him home.
>helping him to his doorstep, he turns round and tries to kiss me
>wtf, before /fit/ so no homo
>Still angry at him for nearly getting me killed, and this is totally unexpected.
>panic, hit him and call him a faggot

>Turns out he'd come out to a lot of my classmates at prom but I hadn't heard.
>He tells the whole school he came out to me and I assaulted him
>I get ostracised by everybody
Haven't spoken to anyone from my school in 10 years. Oh well. Most of them were shits anyway.
>>37447387
Sucks breh. I'd be pissed.
>>37445777
>stories that didn't happen
>>37447487
>>>37445777 (OP)
>>stories that didn't happen
This
>>37447438
At first I was angry, now I just look back at it now and regret it. I felt initially like he'd betrayed my friendship by spreading a false story. But I guess from his perspective it wasn't so false; I did hit him and was wrong to do so.
If I hadn't been so hyped up on adrenaline and anger after the truck I'd have probably just laughed it off. I'm sure in usual circumstances I would of.
But I didn't so I lost basically all my friends. Shit happens. We just have to make best of the consequences.
>>37447487
>>37447572
that's fine
Pretend I broke them lifting and I need help getting over the crippling depression of gain loss.
>>37447590
I get both sides, it's a misunderstanding on both your parts but I'd be mad I lost a friend and for the rumors, and definitely would regret doing that. Just a shitty situation all around.
>>37445930
I like her hair.
>>37445941
this shit should be in the news you good fucking samaritan
I so much want to believe it, but I just can't without pics and time stamp.

>>37449671
I have actually done recovery from a couple of snapcities. Hope is not lost but if you had a plan in mind, put it on hold for about 3 years with your injuries.
start recovery as soon as humanly possible, i mean get up and walk the minute you can and not a second later. your gains are now in mobility, endurance and recovering range of motion and lowering pain.
use that pain medication freely, bitch
your physical therapist is a retard, just do what they say and do your real work on your own.
You MUST treat recovery like gains. set realistic goals, exceed them, set new ones.
mobility exercises, warming up, massagesm and even faggy shit like taiji are ESSENTIAL, they are as important as trying to regain full mobility.
You are ultimately in charge of this outcome. you have both legs, you have sawbones to put them back in the right place. You can get back to almost where you were if you put your mind to it and perservere. If it seems like too much, kick yourself in the ass
>which is literally possible for you right now hohoho
LET US SEE THE CARNAGE. POST PICS OF LEGS
>>37445777
S4, LGD saved my muscles for a 3 month injury
Jesus Christ you fucks are gullible as hell. OP is just a bored autist that made up a story of selfless heroism to fill his time. And you summerfags ate it up with a spoon. If this actually happened then he would have posted a pic with time stamp or, better yet, a newspaper clipping with his face in it with a pic of himself and a timestamp.
>>37449785
they're just casts
>>37450334
who cares? it's a legit fitness issue and several OPs have contributed legit responses.
>>37446674
Bench light at first, like babyweight, benching without using your legs is extremely hard.
>>37447387
if he was willing to snitch to everyone about something like that without coming to you first he was never your friend in the first place
what a cunt
>>37445777
You did something heroic. Pride is better than gains. Hint that the family get your story in the paper, save the paper, show your kids about selflessness
You fucking dumb idiot DUMMY
You deserved worse
I hope you rot in that wheelchair, if this is real (it isnt)
>>37446185
>they're just broken bones
Then stop being a little gayboy about it, you're too manly to act like a little bitch.
Professional athletes whose gains are literally their life and livelihood come back from that much injury (and worse) and still take home championships and/or world records or world firsts. Look up the dude who snapped his shit up nearly to death and then joined the first time to successfully climb Meru like a year later. You're fucking fine, relax.

I'm not sure about this, but unless he was driving uninsured if you sue him I'm pretty sure his insurance is who ends up paying for it? Someone correct me if I'm wrong

Why? I couldn't let them get hit in front of me
>>37452128
No, they don't while jwalking.
not sure if any of this happened, but if it did or someone else is in this situation, you're pretty much a poster child case for LGD-4033 - take 1 or 2mg per day, lay in bed, and don't lose any muscle mass.
it's literally exactly why the shit was developed to begin with.
>>37452178
Oh man that is sweet, thank you.

having a genuine excuse to not train legs. A gift from the gods
>>37447043
Yes but don't expect pt to do anything for you. I got t boned on my mc and was in a full leg cast for 6mo. Absolutely wrecked my metabolism and still have leg problems 20 years later. After all that all pt did was roll my ankle loose twice and send me on my way.
You'll make it OP. Don't keep reading like you were, in a month you'll be able to do real upper body, focus on being fit and not gaining weight due to decreased activities etc.
Basically I fucked up and expected anyone to care about my health and was expecting to get rehabbed movie style and it never happened. That weight and metabolism change was worse than the actual break and subsequent surgeries.
Again, you're gonna make it tho
>>37445777
Stuff that never happened: the story.
>>37445777
Old /hero/ story:
>be at music festival
>girl on guy's shoulder say hi, I wave back
>10min later guy is falling on his feet unexpectedly,eyes rolling
>girl is tipping forward with nobody in front of them, about to drop almost 6 ft ( guy was a manlet)
>she turns in the air to fall less painfully on her back
>I'm couple feet to the left, leap in lunge form with arms out
>catch her out of midair in my arms 50s style
>she looks up says "thanks for saving me"
>My 'tismo blurts out "No problem!", put her down, give her a thumbs up and return to my friends
>>37446034
Did you miss the part about his legs being mangled?
>>37445777
Let's walk through this for a second, which do you think will grab more poon?
>oh hey anon what happened with your leg!
>>well there was this little girl about to be ran over by a truck so I pushed her away and tripped then the truck ran over my legs so I'm out for a few weeks

OR
>hey anon what are you doing later today?
>>lifting
>ok but don't you want to grab some coffee?
