TWEAKIN first off u had some awesome sessions in here bro! Great work on arms and chest day, legs were good to bc u kept it safe :2: shouders n arms are looking good too.

Ok about your shoulders my advice not that u asked for it, but is to do as follows:

Start rotator cuff exercises if u havent already.
AVOID ALL EXERCISES that are causing pain right now, u have to let the damage done heal.
Ice it bc its clearly inflammed, take some ibueprofine once a day bc if u overdo it youll get terrible stomache aches.
Press the ice onto the injury while u ice it too bro.
IF your worried about losing strength or size or whatever, do the mass building exercises with light wieght and really high reps so atleast this way youll be doing the exercise, but if i ugs u u gonna have to walk away and don only exercises that dont bug it. Ice is imprtant so dont ignore it. Keep up your nutrition like i kow i are all thsoe nutrients will help u heal up bro!

Best of luck twaekin!

This week off has really done me some good. I've been icing and taking ibprofen daily and my shoulder has gone from I'd say 25% to about 85% in a few days time. Tuesday will be the first day for any upper body stuff since last week so hopefully it works out well.

I did train legs this week however, I might as well post it.

Squats
135x10
225x10
245x6
265x6
275x6 (and thats the most my back is capable of handling, I could tell anymore weight then that and it easily would hurt me)

Leg Press
290x10
380x10
480x10
570x10

Lying Leg Curl
130x6
150x6
170x6
190x7 :weightlifter:

Seated Calve Raises (very slow ROM and holy crap did it hurt)
90x12
135x12
135x12
135x12
135x12

6 sets of ABs

Good log - yet to read it fully but will start tommorow.

I like the way you record all your weights in a easy to read way. You seem pretty strong - Keep it up!

I like your back session tweakin great work!

Yes i would add shoulder exercises, but i would also change what u have here, Barbell military press, upright barbell rows, and a db movemnet for your reardelts, then some shrugs bro. Try burning out your delts w a drop sets of high rep DB side laterials, then going and doing shrugs, makes a higes differance on what your shoulder feel like unde rthat heavy weight bro!

EDIT: STAY AWAY FROM THE DANG MACHINES! Unless u have to use them to work around and injury.

I cant do seated Db Presses right now, or Upright Rows, or else they'd be in there cuz they are my favorite :tear: I'll try military press Sunday though and see hwo that goes. As for shrugs my traps dont need to be trained twice a week so I'll only be training those on the 2nd shoulder/back session of the week.

I already have a db movement for my rear delts :no:

Sunday it'll be something like this:

Military Press
Side Laterals
Upright Rows (I'll see how they feel)
Rear Laterals

Back:
Deadlift
Close Grip Pulldown
Chinups

Traps:
BB Shrugs

hows that Ben? I'm still alternating with my back for thickness and for width, but its much better this time since I'm training everything twice a week.


Next session is Friday and I'm gonna smash my Legs :weightlifter:
