Welcoming back Matt McMeeking Joel Armstrong Caroline

Jumpstart 9 - Week 1 complete ✅

One week in and this crew already looks different from the nervous faces on Day 1. Still early days, but the commitment is already showing.

Two classes down, plenty more to go. This is where the real growth starts - not the big leaps, just showing up again and again until it becomes who you are.

Proud of this group already 💪

No surgery. No steroid injections.

Four weeks into rehab, I saw the doctor. He’s happy with the strength coming back in my left arm, which was his main concern. I’m off the pain meds, and he’s happy for me to keep going with my physio because he believes I can make a full recovery.

It’s not done yet. The atrophy in my left arm is going to take time to rebuild, and my neck still feels weak, so there’s a lot of strength work ahead.

But the rehab is doing its job. Do the boring work, let the professionals make the calls. That’s what training smart looks like.

That’s my case and my doctor’s call. If you’re carrying an injury, get it checked properly.

Four weeks. Every day. Here’s what it looked like.

From the first baseline measurement to now. The inversion table every morning, the Iron Neck reps, the physio work, the strength testing, a whole set of new tools, and the daily discipline of not pushing before I was ready.

And the work keeps going.

Whatever the result, I did the work properly. That’s the only part I control.

Two weeks in. Time to measure and tell the truth.

I re-did the same measurements from day one: neck range of motion, my left arm against my right for the atrophy, neck circumference, and the sensation in my index finger and thumb. Range of motion has improved slightly with much less pain, no hypertrophy in the arm, small amount of hypertrophy in the neck but I’m getting feel back in my fingers.

Whatever the numbers say, this is the real version. Rehab isn’t a straight line up. Some weeks you move, some weeks you hold, some weeks you go backwards. The people who recover are the ones who keep going through all three.

Two weeks down. Two to go before I see the doctor.

Neck training is the most ignored part of grappling. It shouldn’t be.

Here’s the Iron Neck work I’m doing as part of my rehab. Controlled resistance in every direction, rebuilding strength around the injured area so it can handle load again.

Here’s the thing most people miss: a strong neck doesn’t just help you recover from an injury like this. It helps prevent it in the first place. If I’d trained my neck properly in my early years, I might not be here now.

That’s what smart training looks like. Building the body to handle the sport, not just surviving the sport and hoping.
