  1. I have had both tennis and golfers in my left elbow. And tennis in my right. Golfers was from preacher curls too often. There is obviously something you do that strains your tendon. Find it, reduce it/cut it out, get to strengthening it using stretches/compound weight lifting program with plenty of rest in between. Oxygen doesn't deliver as well to the tendons as it does the muscle so improved blood flow will help it. This is where the weight training comes in but start off with nowt but the bar. Get the blood pumping around will increase healing.

     

    To end my post, all tendinitis that existed on me has now gone but I know if I do too much isolation movement on my bicep for example it will come back but not as easily. It did take a few months though.

  2. Sort yourself out....weighing ketchup? MyFitnessPal?, you are probably losing weight through stress and worry. Definitely not good for you. Relax and smell the roses.....sorry trees!

     

    Ps.....would have added amusing smilies but don't know how on my iPad.

     

    Lol I don't stress. I just watch my intake and value my health, there's nothing wrong with that. It cuts out all the bull from guessing. And you don't lose or gain weight caused directly by stress. Over/under eating is a result of some not able to deal with said stress. Just like smoking

  3. EVERYTIME i go to load another page of arbtalk it tells me about the arbtalk app. It's rather very annoying to the point where I just refuse to visit arbtalk. I'm well aware there is an app so there's no need to tell me 40 times an hour. Is there anyway of turning this off does anyone know?

  4. I go every year .

     

    People who judge otheres because they dont agree with there way of life are usually deprived intellectual.

     

    Usually? Probably. Me? Nah.

    It's a case of not agreeing with their leisurely activity, NOT a way of life. I don't know the person who hunts the fox, but I can see them doing it and that's the bit I don't agree on. Just like when people take drugs for example. Are all the people that posted on the "drugs at work" thread deprived intellectuals?

  5. Anyone who goes to the Boxing Day hunts are a pile of cawks. How would they feel if I gathered up all my mates, chased them to their home and started ripping them to bits just to say after "well, that was fun. Now time for tea!"

     

    Stupid :thumbdown:

     

    Posting photos as if you celebrate it! You should be ashamed of yourself!

  6. I agree with what has been said regarding the bar/chain etc. sometimes when I haven't sharpened the chain right it will dig down as you say (my ms181). Even tilting the saw to the left/right to find a decent biting point.

    I know it's only a little saw but when it's on point I've took it to ash/beech bigger than the bar (14inch) and even though it requires a little patience it sometimes does surprise.

  7. A shutdown may be booked for 20th December from 9.30 until 3.30 - it is likely that Mrs Miggins power will go off at 9.30am exactly but it can then take upto 3 hours before a permit to work is issued and any tree cutting is allowed to start. The power MUST be back on at 3.30 or fines are imposed, so the permit needs to be cancelled with enough time left to remove the earths and perform any necessary switching. A day's tree cutting on paper often ends up being done in 2 - 3 hours.

     

    :thumbup::thumbup:

    The main reason I love shutdowns!
