 he's got betty davis eyes Member 1684, 6001 posts SQ 250, BP 186, DL 291727.0 kgs @ 118kgs UnEq | You are giving the template a go then  blame the RussiansInterestingly I often found the supposedly harder day easier, and that the lower rep one kind of served as anactive recovery day. All the sets where a big help for me, as it forced me to improve my setup, finding the same on bench now too | ||

he's got betty davis eyes Member 1684, 6001 posts SQ 250, BP 186, DL 291727.0 kgs @ 118kgs UnEq | Get yourself some Cissus for the bicep pain, and get some friction work done on it. I had major problems with it earlier in the year, couldn't even do warmups OH, the combination of that got me through the North Isles comp and a good result in the OH at the Scottish final. Nothad any problems since either. As for the squats, like I said before, you might find session 1 harder each week because you are just recovering from the harder one, but it makes session 2 easier. It did for me anyway. Think its going to be punishing on deads | ||

Try anything tho, want to squat, jus started again for a week or two and thats the pain started. You forget how bad it gets til it comes back again. | ||

he's got betty davis eyes Member 1684, 6001 posts SQ 250, BP 186, DL 291727.0 kgs @ 118kgs UnEq | Friction work is massage along the tendon, where the friction of the massage helps break down buildups of toxins and stimulates bloodflow to promote recovery. If you see a good sports physio they will be able to help, an NHS one will probably be a waste of time and make it worse if they are the same as here. Are you squatting low bar? Mine flared up worse when I did that as I was supporting the bar with the arms, but using a mid bar possition now and its much more comfortable. | ||

Ordered sum Cissus in powder form, might be rank tho.  Im squatting low bar, think the bar may slip on my back at times, that may be straining the arms so i try adjust that Davy, cheers. | ||
