Hows your back now Ed? Are you still dunking in the freezing Bin water? If so, do you think it's helping your back to recover? | |||

Yeah, I was half expecting it to be a symptom of covid19! Definitely bruising there today though. | |||

Cheers Will. Yeah hope so, s**t like this always seems to happen when things are going well. Deadlifts were finally getting back on track now this could potentially set me back a while. | |||

26/1/21 Strict OH Bar X 10 30 X 8 40 X 6 50 X 4 60 X 2 70 X 7 75 X 3 60 X 8 X 3 sets Seated DB over head 25kg X 13 X 3 sets Shrugs 140kg X 12 X 2 Rear lat raises 10kg X 10 X 3 Curls 45kg X 12 X 3 So after looking through Google, I believe I may have torn or at least sprained my teres major tendon?? In my left shoulder. Pressing doesn't seem to be effected, but I can't do a pullup without any pain, and picking up the 140kg to do shrugs was extremely painfull. Doesn't seem to be any bruising but it was swollen yesterday and definitely looks a different shape to my right shoulder. I'll see how the next few days go, and how deadlifts feel on Sunday. I'm also going to try and train 4 days per week, just focusing on either shoulders, legs, back or chest each session. I'll try and reduce my time each session takes also, keeping it around 60/90 mins. | |||

Yeah, the only problem being you need a fair amount of weight due to the lever taking a portion out of it out. I wouldn't feel confident using 140kg on this one, hence why I'm making a new one that should be good for over 200kg easy! Should be done in the next couple of weeks. | |||

WILLSAN said: how do you have this set up? I have had a hip belt for years but never found a set up that felt worth doing with it. Yeah it took a while to get it right but I'm glad I stuck at it. Currently I'm using a metal 60cmx60cm post. I Bolted a ring to one end that i attach the belt to, and drilled a 1 " hole in the opposite end so that a band peg goes through that which then goes through a hole in my rack. In the middle of the lever bar I bolted a loading pin. Simply slide the weights on. I like it so much I'm making a new version using a mirafit wall mount accessory as the lever bar, (with rack weight poles either side) landmine so I can attach it to the rack, and a shackle on the other end to Clip the belt to. I'll try and put a video up when it's done but I'm not sure I can upload from my phone. | |||

It just seems like such a small amount of food. Do you not have any protein shakes or bars as snacks throughout the day to bump your protein intake up a little? |
