9 Days Post Surgery

By -
At the moment I'm recovering exceptionally well. I'm living of prepared meals of basically protein, veggies & rice + 9 Recov Tablets spread out throughout the day. 

 Last week I did isolation work at the gym on Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday & Saturday. Thursday I tackled the 1000 steps with my team mate Lee - struggled a little with the heart rate as it hasn't gone that high since hospital... but I completed it & didn't pull up sore! 
On Saturday I competed intervals on the death bike (AirDyne) & my stomach & body felt strong. 

 Today I went to Hammerhouse Gym with my coach Kyle & his bestie (bodybuilder) Adam. 
We had a nice long bro sesh & I managed to knock out 75kg for 3 on the bench press without any pain, along with a lot of isolation upper body work & large sets of leg work. 

 I'm feeling great! I think a mix of moving & being smart about what I do as well as the Recov is really helping me heal & I'm hoping I might be able to join in to week 4 of this comp I'm missing out on (That gives me another 2 working weeks to heal & get stronger). 

 Watch this space... :)

My name is Dennis Kohlruss, I am 28 years old 194cm tall and my body-weight is around 165 kilos. I am born and raised in Germany, the name of my hometown is Rastatt. I am a professional strongman. in this little blog, I will tell you a little bit about my carrier, my you tube channel and my gym. First it’s a pleasure for me to being a part of the NDO Team, for me its very imported to be around real athletes who do competitions and try to bring the best out of themselves in every situation in their life. Sorry my friends for my bad English, I only have my 4 years’ school English :-) Let’s talk about my carrier, I started strongman in 2012, I had my first national competition in Germany and got 6th place so I licked blood and became better and better BUT always with a plan in my head, grow slow but steady, listen to your body and don’t push it too far to fast! I did no power-lifting  or other strength sports b efore , only a little bit (disco pumping) that’s a synonym in G

Christine Envall Testimonial on Recov

"For me, the goal for training is always to improve on the previous workout... All with the aim of improving my physique. I still believe there is more I can improve, develop, grow, reshape... I have not reached my peak yet so I'm working to go forward not just keep what I have.    So when I say I want to improve on my previous workout I don't just mean increasing weights; while this would be a dream it's not a reality after 25 years! Instead improvement comes in many forms; an extra rep or two on a set, stricter form on the last few reps, a more controlled movement, better mind muscle connection, less rest needed between sets, an entire extra exercise or simply getting to the end of the workout and still having a pump.  Again while this is the goal, making this happen needs help... A lot is mental but a lot does come down to nutrition, meal timing & supplements. I've been around a long time and tried a lot of supplements and one product

Our 105+kg Weightlifter talks about his experience at the European Championships in 2015 where he achieved a personal best and placed fourth overall. The European Championships is a tested weightlifting competition held every year and is organised by the European Weightlifting Federation (EWF). There is about 38 countries in Europe that are invited to participate and has been held since 1896. Due to English being Almir's third language and aligning with our companies values, we have kept his blog as unedited as possible. Almir Velagic Takes on the Europeans Championships 2015 "While I was warming up for my snatch, I was feeling really good which is why my first lift was  185kg . On my second lift I had  190kg which was my best lift at the weight that I had ever done both in training and in competitions. I was feeling really good at this stage and therefore on my third lift, I lifted one kilo more than my absolutely best of 192kg (making my third l
