Leg Extension, hack squat, front squat, back squat, DB squat, SLDL...BB or DB.......all your curls, etc

Thanks ...I was thinking SLDL, but I don't think she's ready for it yet.

How was your day?....other than busy

OMG.....just relentless.....

Good W/O

Read Vince saying that Benching was 90% anterior delts...and so was conventional DB pressing (a little exagerated)...that the only real effective pressing movement was to touch all 4 bells in a low incline DB bench...which means Neutral grip....

Well he was right....7 sets, better stretch, harder.....only went to 105's...probably could do more, first rep is a bitch...

Followed w/decline DB flyes X 4 sets

Smith low incline presses to the neck (got good w8 here) X 4 sets

Finished with swiss ball flyes between the lower cables X 3 sets

Andrew....my client can't fully supinate her left arm...she's never had any injury to it and she doesn't really know why. Like...wtf would that be from? I've been able to train around it, but I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to help increase her range of motion?

Do it w/DB's...easier to correct the form

I knew that! So....you couldn't get as much w8 like that though?

 

[w8lifter]

LOL...no I didn't

Actually...I had a great day...other than being completely exhausted...I totally love training people ( ) I have great clients ....they're fun to push

It's unlikly wrist, more likely elbow and possibly shoulder....anything from spasm, nerve impingment to lack of use causing ROM problems.....

First check her ROM


I would start with stretching........arm back grabing a post or pole, after 20 seconds classic shoulder stretch, rotate the hand 180 degress to take it from the shoulder to the bicep....this will like hurt a bit.

Next, with her arm str8, have her pull her fingers all the way back towards her body (palm away)..20-30 seconds, then arm still str8, hand bends the other way......palm towards the body

Throw in a tricep overhead stretch...then

Recheck her ROM

FUQ!....Taylor has to stay home from school and rob's at training and I have to work

My choice is to cancel everyone or let Skyler stay home and watch her GGGGGRRRRR

 

[Dr. Pain]

Skyler stays....what about your mom?

Or call Rob back from the gym?

[Dr. Pain]

Other symptoms?

 

[w8lifter]

She's working....just a slight fever.


FFFUUUUQQQQ!!!

 

[Dr. Pain]

Sounds like a short stomach flu......I know you probably don't have these in the house....but we use either/both...activated charchol caps....probiotics (acidolphilous)


DP

I have to go in a sec...for 20-30 min

 

[w8lifter]

I paged rob to see if he could come home early....of course he didn't take his pager since he's w/ the team right now....and now the fukker won't stop beeping at me

No...I don't have those. I hope it's not the norwalk virus, lol.
