Just read that the king, Big Ronnie Coleman is going to go through another series of surgeries. The article did not elaborate on what the surgery is for, but Ronnie has undergone a LOT of them over the past few years.

Hope all goes well for Ronnie Coleman!

From Ronnie Coleman's Instagram:

Always pumping it up at Metroflex doing these late night sessions. I have to say I do love them because I'm practically in the gym alone with no distractions whatsoever. There are no bikini babes in here, no one on a machine when I need it so there's no waiting on no one to get off a machine when I need it. I'm just in and out for the workout and back home asap so that I can eat my food and do whatever I need to do after that which is most of the time email. I'm coming down to my final workouts before my next surgery which is next week and I'll be off from training for a very long time. But for right now, it's still on like a marijuana bong. YEAH BUDDY!!!!!!!!!!

that's what big ronnie wrote on his IG account:

"So you guy’s still wanna be like me, you still want to have the same work ethic is I had. Well as you can see I’m 8 X Mr Olympia and I can’t walk. I endured an 11 hour major back surgery last Tuesday. Do I have any regrets?, if I had a chance to do it all over again would I change anything? Yes if I had a chance to do it all over again I would change one thing. That is when I squatted that 800lbs I would do 4 reps instead of 2, that is my only regret in my career. Those 2 reps I did still haunts me today because I know I had 4 in me but the coward in me only did 2. That is my only regret."

Trying my best to get back to walking again. This is just another progress report as I promised you guys I would do from time to time. This is my first time on the treadmill and although I did 7 minutes, only 6 seconds was recorded. After I did those 7 minutes I was totally exhausted for the rest of the day. Just got my schedule for tomorrow and the treadmill is on it again. I will do much better the 2nd time around. I'm going for 15 minutes which means I will do 15 minutes or more. Pray for me y'all, I mean if you like. I will walk before I leave this hospital.

From Ronnie Coleman:
This is the hardware from my last surgery. What you guys are looking at is 11 hours of hard work neurosurgeons performed on my back. What you also see there is 6 hard titanium screws specially made for a rough and tough back like mine, there are also 2 large cages with plates separating both of them. The screws are screwed into my bones, very painfully if I have to say so myself. The cages are so big that the Dr had to open my up from the side to put them in, he also had to open me up from the back to take out some hardware that was broken which caused me to have this surgery. So now I have incisions on my back and my side serratus. There are 6 screws here, 2 more and I’d have one for each Olympia. So let me ask you again, you still wanna be 8 X Mr Olympia? As you can see, the price you have to pay is pretty painful. But of course a champion like myself wouldn’t have it no other way.

update from big ronnie of 24-february-2016

This is what Ronnie had to say to his fans:
Just trying my best to stay in shape as we are in Ronnie Coleman Rehabilitation Camp(RCRC). As I continue my quest to walk so I can walk across that stage to receive my award for the Induction into the International Sports Hall of Fame on March 5th. My progress is going pretty good at the moment and I will be at the show to receive my award. Thank all you guys for your prayers and support, they are really working. I am working very hard every day to achieve my goal to walk again.

Here is part 4 of my recovery series. This episode is filmed at my house and as you will see I got rid of the walker and am able to walk around a little bit on my own which I wasn't able to do last episode! The battle continues and while my journey to full recovery is far from over I am making progress everyday. Thanks for the support and as always recovery aint nothin but a peanut! YEAH BUDDY!
