Hello all

Started training about a year ago. After four months an old shoulder injury played up and got really bad.

Been back training about three weeks ago. I train mainly with compounds. My pressing is extremely weak due to the shoulder, but I am working on it.

1x 120Kg
1x 130Kg

1x 150Kg - PB

1x 130Kg
1x 150Kg – mixed grip

Cheers Fazc. I always try and lift with good form. Spent months working on it when I first started lifting a year ago.

Trainee physio has managed to take my shoulder back 3 steps, so nice easy workout today.

Threw in some curls for the girls just for fun.

Really annoyed. Going to have to rebook another appointment and demand that it is with the proper physio this time.

Notes
Deadlift was weak today. Everything felt heavy. Disappointed in this as was psyching myself up for the big 180Kg all week. Looking at the vid, my hands and feet are closer together when I strap up.

Rows – hard but fine

Bench – shoulder really not happy.

Me – really not happy

Went a bit crazy on the speed squats. Usually do 12, but did 20 to the point of almost puking.

Later on, bit of walking cardio and a Jacuzzi.

Notes

Been getting a few back twinges lately, so did a form check today.

Squats – Hamstrings and adductors a bit tight. Don’t think I quite hit parallel. Need to static stretch and foam roller more!

No pressing today due to shoulder.

Deads - Playing with feet position and grip. Back looks rounded and even more so with mixed grip. Tried lifting with belt on again. Couldn’t breath. Binned it off.

Must remember to use clips
