Just a small bit of advice. You do not need to push weight that starts affecting your joints to put on muscle.
It's sad because I know so many guys, including a friend I've known since we were 6, who now can barely do anything normal at all because of the crazy amount of weight he used for so long. I guess I'm not talking close to 205 or 225( but if that is affecting your joints it's not a good thing) This friend of mine when we were I our mid 2os he was so big and so damn strong it was unbelievable. 6'2" 260 lean. Would easily use 495 on bench. I remember seeing him doing Barbell shrugs with so much weight I can't even tell you what it was but it was actually bending the bar. But now we are the same age, 47, he can't do anything. He's like 200 pounds now and he can't even touch a weight at all because every joint and disc and whatever else is so destroyed he's always in pain. That got him hooked on pain medication which he still is. I think he could have looked exactly the same without doing that. Just pre exhaust your muscles. If your doing chest say, start with Pec dec, then do flys or something then go to bench. There is no way you'll be able to move as much weight but your body has no idea of how much weight your using. As long as your still going to failure or close you'll get the same results.

tut is much more important to us for appearance than massive amounts of weight or joint stress. how much you move has zero affect for the most part. great post, we arent power lifters

That was always my point to him. I had no idea he would end up like this. But, I remember telling him several times that we were not lowerlifters, aren't we doing the just to improve the appearance of the muscle? So, WTF are you doing, you will tear your Pec or something then you are finished. But, he never did. He just got himself to be in the state of a 79 year old at 47.For what reason?
Glad you heeled up I have rotator cup issues it only effects chest workouts.
I can do 205 incline and 225 flat bench if I go higher on either one I have pains for couple days.
Yeah that's the craziest thing I only have pain when I do those exact movements I felt that when I do flat bench press if I bring the bar close to my chin I have no pain so it's more of a hybrid pressing movement that uses more of the upper chest

Yes!!! I naturally found time under tension this time around because I wanted to avoid the extra pain and on top of it I think I've responded even quicker now that I've been back in the gym for about 4 weeks.
The first person I ever heard talk about TUT was Hani rambod..

i honestly believe it is the most important thing when it comes to hypertrophy. it really doesnt matter how much we lift because muscle size is our goal
