HIT or Miss

[Rocco32]

Nice workout buddy!

I like seeing the dips in this wo. Made me realize, I need to do dips! I cut them when I was having elbow issues, but elbow has been doing much better.

Thanks JD. Normally dips bother me too but with the low volume of HIT I find it doesn't bother me as much.

I miss you Rocco!! you can PM me anytime to talk if you need to

Thanks Billie. I love that new avi! Very sexy tattoo

 

[Rocco32]

yo! Roc!
Maybe it's a simple imbalance of strength in the muscle?

You could be right. I tried it again today, this time starting with my right side and I still had trouble with my left but not as much as when it was reversed. Confused yet?!? LOL.

I just feel so uncertain with HIT when it comes to back and bi's. I keep second guessing the exercises I'm doing. The HS Rows just don't seem to hit my back very much, at least not on the left side. I don't "feel" the muscle working you know. The WO was a bit longer because I kept changing things, It won't normally be like that.

I was a bit disappointed today, I was hoping for better gains. I didn't even add one rep onto the DB Bench. I may change that anyway. But overall I guess not too bad.
