done for the day. not as much shoulder pain today but it is still kicking on the presses. so i got the ref to a pt that is a monster strongman in my area and not a bs normal pt. so i am going to bust ass to get in to see him and get this unjacked up for good. i have lost a ton of strength in my pressing on top of it hurting like a bastard everytime i train pushing movements. funny not painful at all for the most part doing shoulders but pressing if i arch to far it is brutal. still managed to hit all my progressions again today thakfully and i am not crippled post workout. so i am going to chalk this one up as a win.

done for the day. had a pt appt today at my gym so i went in and trained before hand. gym's ac was down today so it was nasty hot for both. i got a bit dizzy after a few sets so it was both a push and challenge getting the work in today. the mrs says if we were back were we moved from training would not have happened. moved around some pretty good weight nonetheless and still managed a good session. legs were completely and totally smoked after. got in with a pt that's an actual pt doc and also a big time pro strongman. one of the strongman coaches from one of our other facilities suggested him to me and said if he cant fix me, then i am probably screwed. so he checked everything out and said my rotator cuff is def not torn and if it was it was super minor but most likely it is a rib out of place or a bundle of muscle that is irritated and not loosening up. so treatment plan is setup and we are going to work on pain free pressing. he is also addressing keeping the low back healthy. got the hookup on a local doc that is a bodybuilder and also bodybuilder and athlete friendly. so made some good contacts and got in a good session.

Sounds like you’ve got your prep dialed in way better this time. Keeping sub-10% in the off-season is huge for not having to kill yourself during the cut. That veteran-only show sounds like a no-brainer to take a shot at, especially if it’s been gone for years. Curious to see how you pace the diet so you’re fresh for spring.

done for the day. really good solid day in the books with no crazy or significant issues going on at all. progressions are moving along nicely and other than the usual aches and pains of being an old busted up meathead i am pretty happy with how everything is stringing together so far. i got in to see the new pt last thursday and had no pain or should i say no really bad pain at all training today. he is working the shoulder issue and back issues i have had for years. so far so good with what he has me doing. all in all a pretty successful session. i have to note that i havent been able to get any tanning in for quite a bit due to rainy/cloudy weather we have been having. the mt2 is keeping me pretty dark but i like to get as dark as possible before getting my tan put on. i lost my free in door tanning when i moved and i would rather not have to pay for it and add another moving piece to the lineup if possible. i tanned by my house where i used to live so it wasnt an issue. i havent really looked around here that much because up until now it was sunny all the time.

done for the day. i absolutely felt zero pain pressing today. i mean none at all but i did feel it a little bit on the fly but not bad. press is still weak as all fuck but it moved good and smooth for the most part which is a huge improvement over the past few weeks and training blocks. weird how some movements were really bad and others werent. so now the goal is to get everything pain free and back strong again. finish this prep out and get back to hammer the crap out of chest and shoulders. then again it really doesnt hurt doing shoulders. those tricep kickouts are brutal hard with the higher reps. it takes a little more recovery time between sets for me to hit my rep goals. all in all a good day in the books across the board

done for the day. well i made a huge oops back planning my damn prep. the mrs caught that i was closer than i thought so i lost almost 2 weeks of time but i am already in pretty good shape. only shitty part for me is i wont be able to pull back a couple weeks early and cruise in. i will most likely only have maybe 7-10 days to ease up and let my body recover and clear out inflammation. that said we bumped up cardio and pulled out some carbs. still only do 4 days of both cardio and training so we are progressing without digging a super deep hole, so maybe it wont be so bad. today's session wasnt to awful bad. knees were a little bit tender going in and hip was a little angry but as per usual it doesnt hurt when i am training it hurst when i am not. i guess that's a good thing but not so much when i am trying to rest or do anything else haha. moved up in weight on the bear squat and made all my other progressions as well. so a good day in the books across the board. also on top of the cardio addition carb reduction i will also be adding in winny and bam15 to the lineup. i will list below the new additions. tren made it's entrance also on weds.

done for the day. shoulder is feeling much better. strength has held up pretty good on my pull stuff and legs but it has damn sure feel off on everything else for the most part. pumps are still holding up pretty good and energy has dropped off a bit but i am not dead man walking just yet. fired the bam15 and motc up as well as added in .5mg dex 3x per week. estro labs came back higher than i like so instead of fighting off water and fat loss i went a head and tossed it in to get it back down around mid range again. noticing a bump in temp and sweat from i figure is the bam because the tren has only been in for a few days. we will see how much more these things move the needle on the back end. all in all a good session.

done for the day. just like already noted strength has dropped way off on pushing movements. lost weight and reps on my incline work. felt good and strong on the machine and fly but other than that it was garbage. even the tricep work which is a strong point for me, is garbage as well. irritating and frustrating at the same time. i got a good nasty pump going but strength failing off pisses me off to no end. joints feel pretty good for the most part and everything is holding up pretty well. starting to fatigue a bit 2 days into the week but tomorrow is cardio only. i do have a bunch of appointments to get taken care of but other than that i should be able to rest a bit and recover. i wont call today a successful day but a complete day nonetheless.
