Post Edited: 06.06.2012 @ 18:57 PM by Sawyers No training today. Shoulder feels great, although my bicep is aching enough for me to take some pain killers. 2 days till the first main exam and caffeine pro is becoming a great friend of mine... Also.. Decent appetite today, and I've actually got for in for a change! | |||

| The BBQ the other day got cancelled and moved to yesterday, I ate probably enough for a small country.. Today I didn't intend to train, but got that bored of revising so I went anyway. Got there and didn't really want to go back home and continue working... First exam is on Friday morning so will try and fit in squats and another upper body session before then even if it means combining the two. Military press (Warm up) 1 x 3 @40kg 1 x 3 @45kg 1 x 11 @50kg (3+ set) - Happy with this!! Overhand shoulder width grip pullups 2 x 6 @BW Neutral grip pullups 1 x 6 @BW 1 x 5 @BW - with straps to see if its any easier on my bicep, felt worse then without them. Db rows + lateral raises 2 x 20 @25kg + 2 x 10 @10kg Standing db shoulder press 2 x 8 @17.5kg - shoulder starting to drift upwards Back squats bar holds/trying shoulder out. Conclusion.. Still can't back squat. Rear delt flys 3 x 12 @15kg Bench press 1 x 10 @20kg 1 x 10 @40kg 1 x 5 @45kg 1 x 10 @40kg 1 x 30, 10, 10 @30kg - 5sec rest between each set. Some stuff with the prowler, kegs and farmers. Just testing my shoulder out. | |||

Yesterday was first time benching since the injury so today went well, il stick at 40 for a few weeks now I think. Hanging leg raises 1 x 10 @BW - first 6, full reps, last 4, 3/4 of the way up Over the last 6days my food averages to 193/186/84, which is probably to little, il will make it closer to 190/300/60 next week. Tomorrow I'm at a family BBQ so will be over indulging.. | |||

| Lots of foam rolling and rotator cuff stuff pre session. Deficit deadlifts, hook grip, all paused reps (Warmed up) 1 x 5 @95kg 1 x 5 @110kg (belt) 1 x 6 @120kg Stiff leg deadlifts 5 x 10 @70kg Good mornings(safety bar) 2 x 10 @45kg Weighted situps 5 x 10 @10kg About 20mins of stretching. I've not trained the past 5days because my pec/bicep being sore, I feel better for training with it. Il see how it is over the next few weeks, no longer on any pain meds which doesn't help with the revision for exams.. Il have to get some 'man up pills instead.. | |||

| Haven't trained properly, did some deadlifts, went up to 170kg for a double, safety bar is broke so can't use that and pressing is out of the question at the min. My body feels awful, especially my shoulder. The pain is getting worse which is defiantly not good! Hopefully these few days of rest and il be able to train on Monday. If not il have to grow a pair and just go do some cycle sprints or something. | |||

| it is slowly going up, although the strength isn't to bad, it's more when my pec starts feeling uneasy I stop ask don't want to risk anything! Thurs - off Fri - Only had about 3 hours sleep the previous night & havemt been able to eat the past 2days so didn't feel great. Deadlifts (hook grip) 1 x 3 @50kg 1 x 5 @95kg 1 x 5 @110kg 1 x 10 @120kg (belt) 1 x 1 @130kg 1 x 1 @160kg 1 x 1 @170kg 1 x 1 @175kg (mixed grip) Didn't turn out to be so bad considering what I expected the session to be like. | |||
