Don’t Try This One at Home!

by mikef, under General

It has been a little while since the last post (and that does not mean it is Anzac Day) but I have uploaded another video of some exercise that I’m doing at the gym with my trainer Patrick. It is a seated rowing exercise while sitting on a Swiss ball. I am quite proud of this exercise as it is taken quite some time to even be able to sit on a Swiss ball. In addition to this, it has taken a long time to get my shoulder blades to move at all let alone under my own muscle control. So here it is, enjoy and don’t try this at home!

I hope you are all well and Merry Christmas to all. Be good to family and friends because trust me in times of need they are the best resource you could ever have.

Cheers,

Mike.

    Congratulations on a gutsy effort all round. I have MS and am trying to not let my legs deteriorate any further – and what you’ve done is truly inspirational. Go man, go .. and my best wishes, KB

    Dear Forbsey, Mon and Ashley,

    Happy New Year to you all. Amazing stuff once again Mike – and I am sure 2010 will see you getting even stronger, faster.

    I think back to 2002 and what I was doing – and we were heading to Melbourne for your wedding. Such a lovely happy wedding. So happy anniversary to you both, what a team you are.
    Much love,
    Mel Evans (Rackham) and family xx

    Hi Mike,

    Have just been reading through some of these pages for first time and i take my hat off to you – I was just wondering if you take any medication for the pain? and what do you do to handle muscle spasms, nerve pain etc?
    Many thanks
    Steve
