Hey!

After 2010 injury, my knee was operated three times and my ankle one time.. two weeks ago my doctor said "knee and ankle are very strong, but knee is so rigid" so, now I must train a lot about everything which help my knee.. I have trained well my upper body during last half year and I competed only bench in summer in WPC Europeans, Czech. It was fun competition for me, I bombed out.. Now, my bodyweight is about 125 kilos and I am going to come back to hardest training.. so I start update my training blog..

Hey everybody..!

I start here my training diary again..
