Are you doing those military presses seated or standing? If you're doing them seated, is it a full bench at max incline, or is it one of the shorter backed 90 degree seats?

Face pulls do not bother me but I just dont "feel" it getting worked. I feel like my traps get in the way to much maybe or other muscles are doing the work. I will get the form down though so I can hit my rear delts some more........hopefully!!!!

Seated....one notch off of 90 degrees. Yea I know the weights should be higher but I don't want to push it. Standing I was never big on unless it is with a BB but I can't do them just yet and a full 90 deg is uncomfortable for me right now.

The 70*20 was on a machine. After I do a few sets of DB milt press's I like to finish it off with some light high rep machine presses just to toast the delts completely. Best I ever got on db's was like 60's*4 but that was a while ago.

No legs today....I am just way to tired and I have to get my house organized. My entire family just left for vacation for the next 3 weeks so I got stuck babysitting 3 dogs and a cat. The dogs take more pills then a 112 y/o man I swear to god. I have a friggin graph chart and shit its insane! It took me over an hour to feed them and let them out.

Tomorrow I have to wake up even earlier just to let them out and shit before work. I will def try to get to the gym tomorrow after work but I'm not making any promises.

Heya bud thanks for poppin in!

Yea I keep my elbows in the same plain as the cable....it all stays level ig you look from the side. But hey maybe its time to get one of the guys to watch me and make sure I'm doing em right.

Progress is good...I'm getting stronger every day. BF isn't going down to much at all but I'm adding some LBM on. I am just keeping it fairly clean but eating enough cals to keep growing. I will go on a cut later on b/c I am to happy with all my gains I have been getting right now and don't wanna lose it!! Weight is still somewhere around 190-191. I came down from about 196 within the past month and a half or so. But thats just because I cut out my sugars and so much fat....now its just clean carbs, leaner protein and a small amount of efa's!

What rep range are you doing your face pulls in? Should be higher, like around 15-20. Are you doing any rotator cuff exercises?



I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

Heya pal thanks for droppin in! Hows everything....arm still bothering you?

Yea I use anywhere from 12-20 reps with them otherwise if i go any heavier I feel my traps do more work. And yes I do alot of cuff work. I use my hour glass band every time I go to the gym as well as other db exercises which I don't know the names. I work them alot and it has been paying off some....def getting stronger. But I need to get to the gym more often. I am gonna try and work some stuff out so I can get asome more cuff rehab in as well as some cardio.
