I had a motorcyle accident back in November. Someone pulled out in front of me. Broke my back, shoulder, legs and an arm. My wrist went to snap city.
Bid ridden for four months and still in therapy. Never had a girlfriend and I've never been with a girl in my life. I'm completely a kv. At therapy you weighed more than I do now and I can walk with a limp. Don't act like you've known hardship

Kv because you're a hater
Jonathan Robinson

Had my first snap city experience yesterday following an really productive week and a few weeks of the most motivated I have ever been going to the gym. Now I'm in pain and can barely drive and I feel super lazy. After working a few 16 hour days making a lot of money I'm sitting here feeling like all my gains and that money I worked for went to waste if I had just taken it easier.
I'll probably be back soon but I still feel like shit. Reading your story made me realize my problems pale in comparison, it was what I needed today.
Thanks OP hope you become a better person out of all this.
Michael Johnson
You're gonna make it user!

Cooper Cooper
Sincerely happy for you, OP. You went though a lot and didn't give up and worked extra hard. Well done. May the rest of your life reward you well.
Cameron Rodriguez
OP here

Basically just got back into things too soon. Tried benching and squatting 1 plate the first day back (like a moron). Left shoulder was in constant pain when squatting and any backwards rotation past my earline. My lower back got strained multiple times just from being bed ridden and it being so weakened. Everything is good now though and I'm back to 100%.
I feel for you bro but excuses are excuses. You can't and won't make if you think like that.
Consistently giving 80℅ every week is better than going 100% for one week every month.
Ya it fucking sucked. My grades dipped slightly sophomore year because I was still in the highschool studying mentality. Now I read entire text books, record lectures, and talk to every professor 2 to 3 times per week. You'll make it bro.
Xavier Bailey
Hell ya man. good for you. And i thought my problem was bad.

Your GF dumps you right in the middle of that. That's a classic whore move.
Ryder Thompson
Great job, dude. We're all gonna make it. Congrats on med school and banging qts.
I graduated in pre-med but I'm too dumb for med school. Maybe one day I'll be like you.
Juan Johnson
.....fuck user.
If you can make it with a busted hip, fucked rotator cuff, busted fibula, a shitty lower back, and 3 broken ribs, you're a true hero.
My next lifting sesh will be dedicated to your honor.
Luis Edwards
Yup...we just started fighting 24/7 and she was also going to med school the following semester (out of state).

Our muscles always shrink faster than our egos. Good job not making excuses for your life. Everything is going to turn out awesome for you.
Ryan Ross
Whose fault is it that you were riding a motorcycle in the first place? You're a KV who can't walk straight because you're stupid.
