    As a 54 year old veteran who is about 100 lbs overweight, I recently went back to the gym. About 3 years ago, I had been working out and had lost some weight but had a freak (non-workout related) accident where I shattered my kneecap and detached my patellar tendon. After some family tragedies, loss of employment and the pandemic, I am now back to trying to get back into shape and be healthy again. This time I decided to take a personalized diet plan from site Next Level Diet, and even hire a personal trainer to make sure I don’t cause injury to my 54 year old body with all my limitations from past accidents and age. My trainer and I are focusing on strength training to help with injury prevention and prevent osteoporosis (which runs in my family) and help with arthritis and balance. It has been about a month and I am already feeling so much stronger!!😎😎

      I ruptured mine on January 8th. Surgery on January 9th. Recovery is SLOOOWLY.. But surely... Patience is definitely the word.... My physiotherapist says the rest of 2022 will be affected by this... The swelling is bad. But I got this sock called the achillotrain pro... I really recommend it. It prevents the swelling by maybe 80%.

      For @@MattDoesFitness and for you who is reading this message: God loves you a lot and he wants you to be saved and happy, nothing in this world like money, fun or popularity can fill the emptiness in your heart, but only his son Jesus who died for you can fill you who might not know about him, he knows you more than yourself, you who turned your back to him, he is still waiting for you with his arms open to receive you again, you who fought against him and had done things that are unforgivable in your eyes, he will always see you as his son and he already paid the price for all your sins, even if the world doesn’t forgive you, all that you need is God and everything will be alright, so trust God and only God, no one else, repent from your sins and never go back to them, and the most important thing is that you accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior with your voice and your heart, when you do all these things, pray to God and read the Bible(Christian Bible not a Catholic since the Catholic one might’ve changed the word of God to something that it is not God’s word but men’s, so read a christian Bible) so that you get to know God, and when you pray ask God to guide you so that you always walk in his righteousness and so that he gives you strength so you don’t fall to sin, and don’t just say I am a Christian and never read your bible or end up not praying, build a relationship with God, read the Bible, fast and pray and be his son not only in words but also in your actions, please listen to this message, today God has showed you grace, to you who might be depressed, empty, are being hated or hates, or maybe you don’t receive genuine love, even you who enjoys or is comfortable with his current life, whoever you who is reading this is, know that God is calling you to give you a future and a hope, in this life and in the eternal life, trust him because he loves you so much that you can’t even understand it, and the time is short, after this message you might day or Jesus might return, so be ready and follow him, for today he stretched his hand to you because he loves you and cares for you, and he doesn’t want you to go to hell, so please go to him, I promise you that it will be the best decision you will do in your entire existence and that God will free you from anything that hurts you, take the love and hope the Lord is giving you and be free, for the best future for your life is in his hands, please make the right choice, for today God has stretched his hand to you who he loves so much that he even died for knowing all the bad things you have done, that is how much love he has and will always have for you❤️
      Sorry for the long paragraph and thank you for taking the time to read it, if possible please share this with your family, friends, loved ones and others including the people on this video, it might not seem like it but some people really need hope and God can change or save someone’s life and give hope to the hopeless by you just sending them this message, thank you for reading, God Bless you always.

    I trained as best I could in the Robocop boot to keep the rest of my legs/hips ect active(and to maintain sanity).

    Sportsman from Germany over here 🇩🇪✌️😊. Just came across your video and I will definitely follow your journey back to normal life.
    I absolutely feel you! I got my achilles tendon ruptured by the beginning of March (also left leg), got my surgery and I've been wearing my boot for over two weeks now. I was able to start weight baring right when I got the boot with 50% of my bodyweight.
    Pretty happy I got my rack, barbell, dumbells and resistance bands just downstairs at the garage so there is no need to drive to the gym. Just doing what I can at the moment: light weights, more reps, upper body and some pistol squats for my right leg. I am glad to do a little something just to keep the muscles stimulated. My dog also keeps me moving outdoors.
    Wish you all the best and looking for upcoming videos in regards of your rehab! 🙏

    I much prefer these videos to some of your others. Documenting the process of recovery from injury is something most people will have to go through if they’re into lifting/cardio/sport.

    Man I literally just tore mine playing outdoor basketball. Same as you- good shape, in the gym 5 days a week. Gonna watch your recovery to get some insight to the process. Sucks for us active people who can't sit still.

  • @stuartgreywolftomlinson8923

    Great to see you on the mend, all looks good for you mate. That boot looks awesome btw, don't rush it or push it, don't want to injure yourself more and you will bounce back soon. All the best

    @toddhoad6909 Před 2 lety

    You have this in the bag Matt, the main thing is to listen to your doctors and do what they say but even more important listen to your body because in the end your body is going to let you know how much you can do as long as you stay within the guidelines of what the doctors are telling you. I have never had rehab on that part of my body but I have been through a lot of rehab 2 knee surgeries 4 wrist surgeries (2 on each hand) and 4 shoulder surgeries (2 on each shoulder).

    Good luck with the rehab, looks like you have a great team around you. I ruptured my achilles a year ago, didn't have surgery and the rehab was very slow. Just getting back to where I was, I had put on loads of weight and used my injury as an excuse not to do stuff. Your challenge videos gave me a lift to get back to it. Cheers for the inspiration and speedy recovery

    Progress seems to be the ultimate motivator. When you ruptured it, you came to the realization you weren't going to be able to squat or deadlift anymore and that shot your motivation. And now making small recovery improvements is probably going to give the same effect as a good squat session

  • @levichattawayfitness711

    Get well soon mate! Looking forward to seeing you squat and deadlift again

    Brings back memories! I had a full patellar tendon rupture just before Christmas, similar story playing football. Rehab is tough and muscle loss in my thigh/calves is a hard one to get back. Look forward to watching the journey.

    happened to me a few weeks back. i have never felt so vulnerable or so dependant on other people. almost like a disability. the worst thing is, it can happen to extremely fit people, it was a new fear unlocked for me.
