I felt nausea today for the same reason, it hindered my workout a bit.

Looks like a nice workout there, are those all supersets?

Good w/o's!! I agree with you here ^ Just remember to do your external rotar work.

DB, Arch, Rocco: I know, I know. Im doin more shoulder warmups, some rotator work every workout from here on in. Nothing crazy, but just enough to keep mobile and maybe move in the right direction.

But alright fellas, (and Britchick too, if shes still lurking)... after my long and great holiday weekend, here is tonights workout. Yea, its short. Yea its basically one lift. But it was a great workout.

Warmup:
Some 15lb dumbells, shoulder work

Incline DB Bench:
55s*8
65s*6
75s*6
85s*5
95s*5
110s*5
120s*4
135s*5

Slight incline Flyes
25s*15

And thats it. Thats a PR for incline DB's. Last PB was 120 for a few, or 135s for 1-2. Dont really remember. Its always a great, great feeling to get a new PB. I walked out in a good mood.

Good to see you had a good workout there, Du. I was worried you had too much fun this weekend, and would forget about your journal. Whatd you end up doing for the holiday?

Me too, I was happy with it. I did have too much fun this weekend, doing my fair share of drinking. Sunday night, I dont remember half of it....so needless to say, was a good time. Ill leave out the explicit details.

But the holiday weekend was a good one. Lifted my truck, went to a few parties, a pigroast (sunday night), and spent time with both my family and my girls family. Pretty good.

How about you?

Good to hear.

I had a good weekend, minus a little altercation on saturday. Friday night I drank with this girl I like, had a blast. Then saturday my high school played its biggest rival in football, which was real fun tailgating and being in the center of the crowd in a game that we won on the road. Then saturday night I was going to this girls house and a cop came and I was in the back of a cop car and got my mom called, which sucked, but shes understanding at times. Sunday night had a similar sort of thing as you, just a dinner and an awesome party.

Thanks for asking.

Shit thats plenty of volume lol...8 sets is all some people need heh.

Sounds like a fun weekend....kinda sounds like mine! Glad to hear it bud!

Eh, worked for me. Im feeling it today, the chest is a bit sore.

Tonight I worked the same sort of rep scheme, except with deads.


Warmup:
Bike x 1 song

DL:
135*6
225*6
315*5
390*3
410*1
430*1
440*0

On the 440, I got it off the ground, but not all the way up. So I am mentioning it, but not counting it.

On a sidenote, a lot of the calluses are torn off my hands now, somewhat painful. But I like this repscheme, its somethin nice.

Arent you worried about skipping your lats and other muscles in the back by doing only deads?

Back day is a different day than DL day. Ill cover them, youll see.

Alrighty..

Hows it goin Brother Du? Nice numbers there!!!

I wish I could DL 430 lbs.

Actually, I'd be happy with 400 lbs.

Did you incorporate some shoulder cuff exercises?

I still think you should have the shoulder checked out by a sports doc. Those types of problems rarely go away on their own. Of course, you run the risk of the doc telling you to back off heavy lifting or cut out certain exercises like bench, shoulder press etc.
