Hey matt you have a better body than most able bodied people and you look very symetrical for someone in a wheelchair usualy they are slumped to one side! I'm a big fan of yours been watching you vids on and off for months now, keep positive bro!
You're in good shape for a quad. Sad to say I'm not. I'm a c5-c6 but I have excellent strength in my biceps. I use wrists weights a lot. I'm up to 10lbs. Besides a lot of different arm exercises, I do sit-ups and ab twists.I lay my chair flat and throw pull myself forward to work my abs. I'm trying my best to get in shape and get stronger. You're very inspiring to others like me.
@jlsmith200 Hahahah 430 hp, you do realize that even a stock c5 z06 would walk all over that cupra, assuming you even had 430hp, which you don't. The cupra's powerband isn't anything near a ls6 engine. Not to mention a c6 z06, it'd leave your car like it's sitting still.
Thanks for sharing. My 23 nephew broke his 6-7 he just took some new technology pills two hours after he could write, hold poker chips and cards. He feels stronger in his abs and now can control his bowl movement. FYI there is a new hope!!! Hit me up if you want to learn more.
do you use dumbbells? i started exercising again on free weights in july on 2kg's after a forearm fracture put me out for 2 years. im on 6's now and aiming for 8kg by christmas. im c5/6-2003 on protein powder and creatine.
@jmccaf yes i do. the kind that go around the hand. (quad friendly) I would use resistance bands as well. the weights may hurt your tendons. are you complete injury? any recovery? whats your exercise program like?
@Pyromaniac4889 yeh complete, balance and strength are better but ive had a few health problems along the way - tumour, fracture and pneumonia. i used to be pretty reckless. 'active hands' are good grips for dumbbells.
i do 3 sets of kickbacks, bicep curls, hammer curls, side bicep curls, shoulder press (with assisance), forward and side raises. 3 times a week. i go swimming in the summer, too cold now
@Pyromaniac4889 im on 8kg neoprone dumbells now, using active hand grips to hold them from (w.activehands co uk). i do 3 sets on 8 reps of kick backs, hammer curls, bicep curls, side bicep curls, forward raises, side raises and shoulder press. for about n hour, 3 times a week then boxing on pads for an hour. w.youtube.com/watch?v=sThcDpCbcZE - this was a while ago.
i do have it a little. i lost 65lbs from my injury and maybe gained 25lbs +- back. i eat healthy, work the hell out, do e-stim (sometimes), try not to drink often, try not to take meds and my outrageous spasms probably help keep some tone too..... usually when i make these videos i am in bed probably in extreme pain fucked up on meds cant sleep etc. this one was in the day it was nice out and not so much pain. a good exercise with no pain helps the frustration.
