Good news.  I can log in via my work iPad without being blocked.  Still trudging along. Since changing my workout at the start of the last BB cycle I have increased my bench press by 50 lbs.  I do not think I have ever had that big of a gain.  I had to back off running a bit and no running on pavement due to fluid on the knee.  Taking a week off, a compression sleeve and pre-meds of NSAIDs before workouts have the knee back to normal size.  I ran 3 miles on the treadmill today at a 9 min mile pace and everything good so far.  I need to finish up my pre-history essay before I go to Australia in December so I only need to focus on physical stuff starting in Jan.
