Broken wrist (dominant hand) can't do a bloody thing. Can't even hold a pen. Can't cycle. It still hurts.

Fed up of sitting on the couch.

Have gained 2kg due to eating crap + no exercise.

Perfect cycling weather.

Another 2 weeks minimum in plaster cast

    Is it true - 'the other hand feels like someone else???' :lol:

    the historical parallels are awesome - soon the pained lord and saviour of the please delete thread shall rise - perfect in every way. :D

    Home trainer - you can pedal it using one arm
    Gym - leg press, squat machine, ski machine, step machine
    Swim - Use a float and swim breastroke, cover up the plastercast in plastic
    Long fast walk - walking is very good excercise
    Sex - her on top, doggy fashion - don't need 2 hands
    Eating - lettuce only (okay, and the occassional slice of cucumber)
    Sleep - you need a minimum amount of calories to sleep
    Saunas.

    No excuses.

    Oh yes, forgot - go and find a moose to b4ng in North Yorkshire, takes up lots of energy, just ask Cleat.

    Surely you can use a turbo-trainer despite a broken wrist? It was out of the question with my broken collar bone and ribs but just a wrist might be doable. Sympathy anyway - I bet your skin is busy going all pale, flaky and manky under that cast as well :)

    What do I ride? Now that's an Enigma!

    I needed an operation to fix the broken bone and have a long wound, about 7cm long under my cast, so I am avoiding any exercise as I'm a "sweater" and don't want the wound getting moist and manky :-( so exercise is out

    Seal the gaps up with silicone

    or

    drill some holes on the cast for ventilation

    or

    both

    You have my sympathies :wink: I had my full left leg in plaster after being knocked off the bike. Exercise was completely impossible for 3 months. Whereas yourself, can and should be out walking, briskly. :)

    You're right I suppose there's nothing stopping me going out for a brisk walk...

    If it makes you feel any better, I've left the house about 4 times in the past 4 weeks.

    Well you could at least be the perfect candidate to monster the myth or truth behind the perniciousness of

    strength training is great for my cycling

    get some weights and report back in 6 weeks.....

    He's still got 1 arm and 2 legs aint he??
    Jeez .. think out of the box :D

    no one said that bicep curls gonna get your ftp up by 50 points, but some people swear by lunges and squats, don't they?
    I'm just giving Secteur something to do for the next n weeks, cos seemingly he'll be abusing himself sooner rather than later

    Maybe he could get his nipples pierced and dangle weights from them?

    Just trying to think outta the box ;)

    Right you lot, there's not going to be any self abuse or nipple piercing here ok, so if that's why you're all here then you'll be sadly disappointed!
