Calum von Moger is remaining optimistic despite recent bad luck.

Calum von Moger hasn’t been having the best of years. With multiple injuries plaguing him throughout 2018, the Australian bodybuilder has been put through the wringer. To add insult to injury, Calum has also recently faced food poisoning that once again sent him to the hospital.

Despite that, it appears that Calum is remaining optimistic about his current predicament. In a recent Instagram post, Calum von Moger once again showcased the kind of indominable spirit that he’s quickly being known for these days.

Before and after quad tear. It’s been really hard watching my muscle mass disappear over the past 17 weeks. It also sucks because I can’t train upper body the way I’d like with my bicep still torn. I did a arm workout last week on my right quad and biceps and even though I used lite weights, the following day I had bruising in my forearm. I can’t find the words to describe my frustrations not being able to train normally. Going to the gym is so important to me and right now it’s like giving a kid candy and saying they can’t eat it; I see all the big dumbbells but I can’t play with them. Anyway, I have accepted my circumstances. Being SKINNY is just going to have to be part of my recovery process for 2018. . – I plan to get the surgery done on my bicep late September following the mr. O. I’ll have 3 months of rehab for my arm again before 2019 starts. Then I will finally kick back into gear and rebuild what I had. . – As for the rest of 2018 I’ll be honing my Jedi mind & ninja koala freak skills so that I’ll be prepared for whatever might come my way in the future.
