    I’m assuming you’re not gonna test your 1rm squat next week?

    No, that's the week after. He's climbing Everest next week.

    I'm really not sure if I'll squat much again. I need to talk to physios/doctors about what the impact would be. Maybe there is no impact and that's great...I fire ahead.

    But maybe it shortens the lifespan of this replacement and that would be an issue. I'd lose more bone getting a second one and what would that mean in terms of being active. Might only be early 60s and I don't intend to be inactive from then.

    So we'll see. Risk/reward.

    After meeting with physios, it's probably unlikely I'll squat again. Well, I might squat but heavy loads probably won't do my hip any favours in terms of longevity of the replacement

    Boo, sorry to hear.

    Reckon a future push/pull meet is a possibility?

    Thanks man. I think I had expected it. I could do it but I'm not sure it would ultimately be worth it.

    Time will tell what else I can or can't do.

    I'll probably do more investigation and get more feedback and see.

    Fair bit if work before I'd need to get into it anyway. Because my right side was probably carrying more load, there's a sizeable enough difference between quads (even though I've mostly done single leg work for a while) so I need to strengthen that up again
