| THURSDAY: i thought id try some squats today, i havent squatted since before xmas due to severe shin splints! it didnt go well after my 3rd warm up the pain on my shins got to much. its been atleast 4 months now and it isnt gettin any better if anything it feels worse. f**kING STRONGMAN TRAINING!! i have spoke to a physio all they can recomend is plenty of rest( what i havent been doing) ice up and stay off my bad leg for 2wks  im up and down a ladder all day so thats pretty much impossible. at the moment a 3lift comp seems to be out of my reach only push n pulls anyway enough feeling sorry for myself heres how it went:SQUATS: 60KG X 10 REPS 2 SETS 100KG X 5 REPS (stoped too sore) SHOULDERS:SEATED DUMBELL PRESS 32KG X 10 REPS 38KG X 10 REPS 42KG X 8 REPS happy with that i havent done dbells in a while, they where all deep reps and no spotters through out. STANDING STRICT MILITARY PRESS: 60KG X 8 REPS 3 SETS i could feel the weight on my shins wen standing so that was enough for me. 20kg disc strict raises from waist to arms striaght out: 20kg x 10 reps 4 sets i like this exercise i get a right good burn on the shuds and they seem to swell up..all vanity SHOULDER PRESS MACHINE SEATED: 100KG X 10 REPS 2SETS 100KG X 8 REP( by this time my shoulders where aching was doing some laterals in between) i finished of on bicep hammers 16kg dumbells x 15 rep 4 sets. | |||
