i had to go to an orthopedist and while she did say i have a slight ~form~ of hip dysplasia, she also told me it’s the same thing a lot of olympic level gymnasts have (aka why they’re all preternaturally bendy and i’m similarly hypermobile), so guess which part i’m choosing to bring up when people ask me how my appointment went

my hip hurts so bad today it’s all i can do to lumber around like an over encumbered video game character

I'm at 15 second holds now. 💪😤

PT wins I've increased the length of time I can hold a chin tuck and lift my head at the same time from like 4 seconds to 10 (the designated "normal" amount is 30 secs). Also slowly finally starting to be able to flip my casters up, not a full wheelie but like beginning baby one. Like approximately a quarter of an inch or less off the ground for like half a second LMFAO.

written on phone, excuse mistakes.

ps!ghost is spent. physically exhausted. there's an ache in his lower back that he can feel up to the base of his skull. his hip flexors burn with overuse. his head pounds, an unrelenting hammering behind his eyes.

he's working too hard to keep himself in the zone when at work. his co-stars, while so breathtakingly beautiful, aren't his favorite girl. the one with the soft, quivering thighs that glisten with arousal in every video. the one with the pretty tits and even prettier pussy that somehow takes him (technically him, that toy is based on his cock) so nicely, every devastating inch.

he can feel himself thickening at just the thought of you climbing on top, nails digging into his chest as you sink onto him, watching your face through half-lidded eyes as you finally feel the real thing. would your bitten lips part as you draw a sharp gasp? would your eyes roll to the back of your head once his tip gently presses against the plug of your womb? would you let him take you over the peak with just the pad of his thumb rolling little circles over your swollen clit as you try to sit still?

the muscles in his groin tighten, his now hardened erection straining against the metal teeth of his zipper. he rearranges himself from the outside, a palm wrapping around the thick of him when he looks at his watch.

he supposes he's got enough time to squeeze in one last wank. not like he has any issues getting to his finish line, not with your pretty pussy in his mind's eye.

pulling your page up on his phone, he slowly begins to undo the button on his jeans when he notices that you posted a brand-new video. just minutes ago, back when he was still in his driveway.

he leaves an impatient trail of clothes that leads to his bedroom and lies back, head sinking into the soft pillow, his hand lazily tugging his length when—

he springs up, spine snapping straight, eyes widening but pupils narrowing as he takes in what you're wearing. you managed to get your hands on a mask, a skull balaclava to be exact. he's worn that before in older videos.

even though he can't see your face, he can finally, finally get a look at your eyes. long lashes frame them, like feathered wings, like brushstrokes from an artist's hand. your eyes reflect the bright luminescence of the ring light behind the camera, a circular glow that encircles the center of them in a perfect halo.

if he wasn't enthralled before, (which he definitely is, he'd buy you an airplane ticket to come see him in a heartbeat) he sure as hell is now. and he's even harder than before, almost painfully so. ghost leans against the wall, spreading his muscled thighs shoulder-width apart and presses play.

it starts slow, as always. your hand wraps around the base of the toy, the tips of your fingers barely touching. he takes minor pride in that. you're not a teeny thing, he's simply bigger in more ways than one. you give it a couple of pumps, spreading the lube over it when you lean forward— your pretty, perfect eyes looking straight at the camera— and with a thumb, you lift the mask up just enough to—

you spit on the toy. there's a clear glob of saliva trickling down the plastic thing, trailing a warm path down to where your hand is. the wave of heat that rushes through his body, painting his cheeks a rosy hue with embarrassment (because he's seething with jealousy over a bloody inanimate object, for fucks sake) is swallowed up by the molten rush that courses through his veins.

his usual pink tip is flushed a much deeper color as it pre-cum beads up at the slit.

"fuck, do tha' again." he rumbles quietly. "c'mon, love, do tha' again." you've even got him talking to himself, that's how crazy he is about you.

it's as if lady luck smiled upon him because you do it again. a quick drag of your hand, up down, up down, and you lick the side of it with a flattened pink tongue before spitting on the head.

perfect. you're perfect. what he wouldn't do to be there instead.

he sucks in a sharp breath through his clenched teeth when you move around until your sex is hovering over the spit-slick toy. ghost chokes out a groan, a low noise that comes from deep within his barrel chest when you begin to lower yourself onto it.

your greedy cunt swallows it whole in one smooth movement. puffy lips spread wide as it stretches to take it all, walls wrenched apart by the girth. he bets you're squeezing down on it like a vice. ghost grips himself tight, hissing at the feeling. you'd probably be tighter.

he strokes himself in sync with the pace you've set, a slow but firm rise and fall. the sounds your cunt makes is music to his ears— audible squelching, a sticky viscous note. there's a creamy froth around the widened base, slowly dripping onto the floor like pearly drops of sweetened honey and milk.

saliva pools in his mouth, enough to have to swallow.

he bets you'd taste as sweet as you look. like a ripened fig. like the warmth of amber.

another swallow.

a familiar heat begins to flare in his groin, a quiet hum beneath his flesh, tiny pinpricks on his tender nerves. the tell tale sign of his end.

"c'mon sweetheart, come with me. let me—" he bites down on his tongue, meat between his molars when his core pulses, flaring white hot. let me feel you around me. give me wha' i want, wha' i've earned.

my reward.

he hears your breath hitch, snag in your throat, and—

your eyes flutter closed, eyelashes akin to a butterfly's wings. vulnerable. delicate.

he just knows you'd look so beautiful in your surrender.

white-hot, like a star's core radiates from the inside out, a seething inferno beneath his skin, pushing outward, pushing against the threshold— a dam that holds back torrents of euphoria. a crack appears with each stroke, each tug of his cock until he exhales a quivering breath, like fallen leaves rustling in the wind.

it bursts, cascading over him. it's indescribable— pure ecstasy. sublime. it comes in bursts, pulse after pulse. warmth covers his hand, drips down his balls into his bedsheets.

he grumbles as he gets out of bed to clean himself up, making a mental note to ask his manager to email you instead.

it's high time he got his hands on you.

or yours on him.

(+ fat fucking tip, atp he's about to buy a wedding ring someone help him!!!)

[false-heteros16]

Hey party people, beccause of the kind of loosy goosy portrayal, of House’s pain in the show, I decided to take it into my own hands to analyze how House’s disability affects him. My credentials? I took Kinesiology in the twelfth grade and I’m super obsessed with this show.

I also made this for-myself as a guide for my writing so i know the specifics of how house is effected by his pain.

Where is his pain and How does it effect him?

The infraction, lead to a surgery in which the flexor & extensors of House’s knee and hip were impacted. From pictures of the scar, its the upper lateral-medial thigh, so i see three main muscles being effected: vastus laterals, vastus intermedius, and rectus femoris.

Those muscles, are important for alot of movement.

The rectus femoris flexes the hip, which means raising the leg would be painful

The vastus laterals and vastus intermedius, (and somewhat the rectus femoris too) help with extension of the knee, meaning straightening his knee would cause alot of pain

Im under the assumption that his hamstrings have not been affected, so that means he can bend his knee, and extend his hip (lower his leg) to an extent.

Actions this effects: walking, running, raising the leg, and any pressure placed on the leg (includes standing).

His chronic pain, (originating Psychosomatically, and due to the strain of (even slight) movement ) means a constant level of pain that affects movement & function even more.

- House’s prescribed medication (vicodin s1-5,s7-8) dulls the pain to an extent which allows him some relief but even on high dosages of this medication House still experiences sharp pain with prev actions mentioned.

The show accurately portrays:

- house using his hands to keep leg straight as he raises/lowers his leg on/from a object. (eg. Coffee tables, chairs, footstools)

-house using the cane for walking, and while standing to support the weight of his leg, and also to bring objects closer or use as support with other movments

The show should better portray:

-strain of driving/using motorcycle on his leg. (yes his leg isn’t being actively used with the bike but there is extended hip flexion)

-the extent of Psychosomatic pain, and a better acknowledgement of it AS PAIN. Many instances where Cuddy and Wilson refuse to prescribe pain relief because his pain is Psychosomatic. (Wtf kinda logic-)

-Rewrite of s6. Fucking god wtf do you mean they took him off his primary pain meds and gave him ibuprofen instead, and we never see the extent of that strain on him once hes back on cases.

-portrayal of how House’s Psychosomatic pain that isnt cured by the pOwEr oF lOvE. (looking at you s6 finale)

NEED to read about Finn and leo in absolute awe of Logan’s muscles and how strong he is

You are so real for this ask, I fear.

Content warning for mention of nefarious activities, but, once again, nothing explicit!

All credits to @lumosinlove <3

“One more, baby. Yes, there you go.” 

Logan grunted as he pulled himself up one more time, the weights hanging heavily from the chain wrapped around his waist. Finn smacked his butt as he hopped to the ground once more.

“Atta boy, Tremz.”

Logan was breathing hard, but he smiled at Finn. “Merci.”

Despite the sweat covering both their bodies, Finn leaned in to press a kiss to his cheek. “You make pull-ups look like light work.”

Logan laughed, using his shirt to wipe his sweat off. “Where's Le?”

“Doing mobility and flexibility stuff. He already did his big lifts.”

Logan groaned. “Fucking love when he does the splits.”

“You and me both.” Finn tapped his butt once more. “I'll go find him, then we'll leave, okay?”

“D'accord. I might do another set.”

“Ways, Lolo.” Finn skipped on his heel. “Be right back!” he sing-songed. 

He found Leo holding a lunge on some mats, a weight held out straight in his hands as he lifted his front leg over a block. Finn didn't really know what the movement was exactly, but he figured that it was to train his hip-flexors and ankles, which always worked over time from him dropping into the splits so often.

Not that Finn would complain about that.

Leo concentrated for a few more moments before he turned to Finn with a smile. He dropped the weight, and knelt on the mat, rocking back on his heels, relaxed. Finn's brain almost short-circuited with how easily he did that.

“Hi, sweetheart,” Leo said, reaching out a hand. “You all done?”

Finn took Leo's fingers and nodded. “Uh huh, just did some sprints on the bike. Lo's finishing some pull-ups.” He bent down to whisper in Leo's ear. “Do you have any idea how obscene you look right now?”

Leo's smile was confused. “What?”

Finn pulled back, waving his hand up and down. “You just- you just kneel like that all… all flexible and- fuck, what am I supposed to do?”

Finn could've sworn Leo stuck his butt out just a little as he leaned further back onto his thighs. “Yeah?” he asked.

“Yeah!”

“How about I do it for you naked sometime?”

Finn's brain really did then short-circuit at the image. “Huh?” 

“You heard me.” Leo stood, replacing the weight and wiping his mat. His hamstring muscles were defined and straining as he bent over. When he straightened, he gave Finn a quick kiss on the mouth, a happy smirk on his face. “Let's go get Lo.”

Finn spun around to follow him, pointer finger in the air. “Oh, we are so revisiting that later.”

Leo winked at him from over his shoulder. He was just about to say something else when he stopped in his tracks. He blinked hard. “Whoa.”

‘Whoa’ was right. Because there was Logan, now bare-chested, rolling out his shoulders underneath the same pull-up bar as before. His muscles shifted beneath his skin with every movement, including when he turned to look at them. His teeth showed through when he smiled at Leo. “Salut, soleil.”

Leo just stared for a moment, then groaned and brought his hand up to his eyes. “Oh God.” He peeked through his fingers. “Oh God.”

Logan's cheeks flushed, but he looked pleased. He knew how good he looked. The whole world knew how good he looked. He caused lots of fumbling words and garnered lots of double takes whenever they went out in public, as though everyone was overwhelmed by the sheer beauty of him. Finn and Leo could relate, Finn supposed. They were just the lucky ones who actually had him, so ha ha.

They both watched as Logan turned towards the bar again, looking up as he jumped slightly to grasp onto it with his scarred knuckles. Finn went to stand by Leo. 

“You watching the show?”

“Uh huh.”

“This is the best show.”

“Uh huh.”

Finn nudged at his jaw with a laugh. “You got any other vocabulary up there?”

“Nope. I'm too busy watching the show.”

Finn hummed, wrapping an arm around Leo’s waist. They watched as Logan braced with his lats, rolling his shoulders back into a stable position, and pulled himself up towards the bar. Finn swore he could break the metal with those strong hands of his.

“Shit,” Leo whispered. “Look at his back.”

Indeed, it was a sight to behold. Every muscle fiber was on acute display as Logan repeated the motion, raising and lowering himself with practiced form. From this angle, they got a view of his muscular chest and abs, too, glistening with a sheen of sweat. His sharp jaw was clenched with the effort, moving slightly every time he breathed. Finn didn't really believe in any sort of heaven, but he didn't think that was really relevant when he was obviously currently existing in one right now.  

Leo and Finn watched for what felt like hours, but couldn't have been more than two minutes. Finally, after one last straining repetition, Logan let out a heavy breath and lowered himself to the floor. Immediately, he undid the chain, dropping it and the weight at his feet. He was still panting when he looked up at them. At their stunned expressions, he laughed. “What?”

Leo reached out to pull him to them, planting a firm kiss on his mouth. “Your muscles, honey, my Lord.”

Logan looked amused. “I thought you weren't a fan of sweaty kisses?”

Leo shook his head. “I can make an exception.” He kissed Logan again. “You can't just look so sexy and have me not do something about it.”

Logan hummed against his mouth then turned to Finn. “Et toi, mon rouge?”

Finn wrapped an arm firmly around his hips and pulled him flush to his body. “You already know how I feel about sweat and muscles.” He kissed Logan quickly, but deeply. “So sexy and strong.”

“We have to go home,” Leo said in a rush. He was staring at them with wide eyes and trying to cover himself with his water bottle and his long sleeved pull over he'd started the workout in. “You both just look- we have to go home.”

Logan went to put away the weights. “What about the sweaty sheets?”

“We can start in the shower,” Leo replied, a bit dazed. He was staring blatantly at where Logan was bent over. Finn couldn't blame him. “Jesus Christ, we have to go home.”

“Hm,” Finn said. He leaned in to whisper in Leo's ear. “And after we shower, do you think you could make good on your promise? Think you could kneel naked on the bed for me, baby?”

Leo sucked in a breath. “Go, go, let's go.”

Finn laughed loudly. “Lolo! Get your stuff, we gotta get out of here.”

“Allez,” Logan said. He shouldered his gym bag and led them towards the exit. “Ça va?”

And if Leo and Finn stared at the swell of his butt as he walked in front of them to their car- well, they were only human after all. And they had permission. Finn smiled, kissed each of their hot cheeks, and chirped the keys to unlock the doors.

Can you do a Rhea request for me please

Yeaaa

Slight heart attack

Pairing: Rhea Ripley x Fem reader

Description: You scare Rhea badly when you get hurt during your gymnastics qualification

You walk out with your friends and fellow competitors for your qualification rounds in order to qualify for nationals. You cheer on your friends when they perform and so far you were doing really well having gotten quite a lead after your vault and bar performances heading to beam which was your favorite and best event, you start your routine full of confidence and as you perform it only grew bursting out in a yell of joy when you stick the landing of your double arabian dismount heading to floor staring off after your amazing beam performance doing the best floor routine except for the yell of pain that comes from your soul after landing your last pass quickly finishing the performance with your pose before curling in a ball of pain as you try to get up. Rhea feels her heart drop seeing you as you're picked up and carried off out of the arena to the hall to see the medical team determining that you had severe hip flexor strain and had hurt your Achilles tendon which caused immense pain immediately being sent to the hospital begging your friend to get rhea as the doctor talks and calls an ambulance, rhea runs down the hall as your loaded on the stretcher going with you to the hospital talking to you on the way "God you scared the shit out of me, I had a slight heart attack seeing you collapse" you sniffle with tears running down your face in between your cries that broke rhea's heart at the news of being checked at the hospital with a Achilles tendon injury and hip flexor strain both needed a lot of time to heal meaning you would be back right before nationals. You were happy that you qualified in first but you knew you would need to train extra after recovering, "Baby I'm so proud of you even when you scared me" she holds you as you lay in bed after coming home and taking pain meds feeling yourself doze off and her gently stroking your hair then rubbing your side only made sleep wash over you faster "Love you baby" she kisses you forehead feeling your breathing slowly even out against her "I love you my girl" with rhea by your side as you recover and come back you know that is all you need for the next few weeks.

dr google says i have a hip flexor strain, which is tearing of the muscle/ligament that joins my thigh and hip. takes anywhere from 2-6 weeks to fully heal and be able to exercise as normal without risking further injury.

i'm an idiot, i had mild but manageable pain at a certain angle and only waited a couple days to exercise again and now it's more like a moderate injury so i'll be out of climbing commission for a while, which is gonna tank my stamina.

CROSS TRAINER ( PART1)

Running and cycling are popular cardio activities around the world. What if you don't like them, can't do them, or just want to change things up? The cross trainer is an excellent piece of fitness equipment that provides a full-body, low-impact cardio workout.

What Is The Cross Trainer?

The cross trainer, also known as an elliptical trainer, is a stationary piece of gym equipment that allows users to simulate a walking or running action without the strain on joints produced by feet striking a hard surface. It is a low-impact way to strengthen the cardiovascular system and engage muscles all over the body.

How To Use A Cross Trainer?

The cross trainer is a very simple and easy to use piece of kit:

Hold on to the safety bars and step both feet onto the foot pedals

Place your hands on the handle bars

Begin to move by pushing down through one foot, and then continue to pedal both feet while keeping them on the foot rests

You can use your arms to push and pull the handles to engage the upper body

Keep your core engaged, torso upright, and gaze forward

The resistance can be adjusted via the buttons on the screen, and the speed is manually controlled by how quickly you move.

What Muscles Does The Cross Trainer Use?

Cross trainer workouts target practically every muscle in the body. The primary muscle benefiting from aerobic exercise is the heart, which strengthens the entire cardiovascular system. Cross trainer workouts do not build considerable muscular mass, but they do aid to increase strength and endurance in the muscles used, especially if you utilize a high resistance.

Muscles worked include:

The quads, hamstrings, calves, glutes and hip flexors to drive the foot pedals

The triceps, biceps, pecs and lats to push and pull the handles

The core to keep the torso stabilised
