Lol- those are good. I was 6' and 165 when I broke my neck; and could bench 300
lbs,
now maybe -40. Without triceps the arms are almost useless when lying down,
and sometimes dangerous.... I have smacked myself in the face more than once.
The wife has taken a few shots too. I have always prided myself for never
laying a hand on a woman; she just reminded me that that isn't true, now if I
only had a yellow sweat stained wife beater.... haha!

Dang Dave- I have weight envy.... haha! Seriously- I am 6' and maybe a buck
twenty (I dunno, haven't been weighed in years, so just guessing), but my
deltoids and biceps can uphold most AB's in arm wrestling til they give up. I
have the staying power; but without triceps I just can't put them down. So then
I call them a big pussy; and calm and coolly roll away, I'm rich, got a big car

I'm about 6'1" and currently weigh in around 215. I was somewhat scrawny
when I crashed in 1967, around 150ish I think. I'm just healthy now - yes, my
quad gut bothers me at times by filling out my shirts more than I like but in
the big picture - so what? I'm healthy and I can still haul my gut around
without too much trouble.

My weight goes up and down all the time. I'm 6ft3 inches tall, but on

I try to keep calories around 1500.
As ugly as I am I never think about the quad gut. That's like Quasi-Motto
worrying about athletes foot.
After 32 years, I've sort of settled at this weight.

First of all- how many of you are excessively skinny? I have been told by
my old physical therapist; that quads eventually go to one extreme or the other
(skinny or heavy). I have been lean my whole life (including prior injury); but
with years of atrophy.... I am just plain skinny.
Second- I have not had a rehab doctor visit in about 17 years, I've just had
periodic check ups with my family doctor. How often do you guy's see a rehab
doctor? I am scheduled to see one the 10th of this month.
Thanks-
