There was a guy on here several years ago that was squatting every day. I was surprised at how long he kept it up, can't remember the user name. But finally, it all came tumbling down with overtraining and injury.

So with that in mind, I took today off. :-) :-)

I was thinking of going in again today, but waking up this morning my body is telling me otherwise. I ain’t no spring chicken.

I'm barely a winter chicken, Bob! :-) :-)

Back to the gym. Chest and shoulders today. Things were going well until overhead shoulder press. Felt something pop. Decided to call it good. Time for ice and ibuprofen.

Bob, I hope the shoulder is just tweaked.

I hit heavy back today. All I need is a shoulder replacement, a hip replacement and a new neck, and I'll be mediocre. :-)

Leg day! Lots of weight was moved, no hernias popped.

Did some stretching for my shoulder which seemed to help. Still a bit sore, but going away.
[Reply]

Keep it going, Bob! :-) :-)

Back and arm day. Loving those mag grip bars. Fry’s my forearm/grip. I’d say I’m about 70% of the way back to the weight I could do before.

Keep rockin' it, Bob. :-)

I'm training upper body one day and legs the other the past week or so, I'll stick with it until I get burnt.

Decided to go in and work on chest, and a bit of shoulder. Needed to see how my right shoulder would feel. As I thought, not great. Decline and regular press was ok. Incline was were it really told me to back off. Dropped the weight and was able to get them done.

What was funny on the decline, I did an easy warmup set to check alignment. Took those plates off and threw on 45’s. Blast out another set and I’m like, “that was easy. I’m stronger than I thought”. Then I saw there was only one 45lb plate on the bar. :-)

After my weight loss years ago, I learned I was no where near as strong as I thought. My bulk did most of the heavy lifting. I’d love to be lifting more, but I’ll take what I can get at this point.

I'll do that on an exercise, Bob. Put 185 on and be shocked how many reps I get....then look, and only one side has a 25lb plate. :-)

Definitely ICM. At least 4 of us in there hitting the boobies. :-)

Been doing some stretches during my warmup that are supposed to help my shoulders. Still too early to tell, but it’s definitely helped my posture, keeping my chest up and shoulders back.
[Reply]

ICM in my gym too, Bob. So I did back. :-)
[Reply]

Got back into the gym. Wanted to give my shoulders a break. Started off good, did my warmup, then dips. Felt ok. Then went to do incline dumbbell presses. Even dropping down in weight, my right shoulder wasn’t liking it. So switched to back. Got thru lat pulldowns and high iso rows ok. Then went to do shrugs. Felt a slight twinge in my left trap. Fudge it. Did cardio then left. Sucks getting old.
[Reply]

Sorry, Bob. I have so many nagging injuries I never know which one will take center stage each day. :-)

That being said, I went in and killed legs this AM. :-)
[Reply]

Nice Tom! I may hit legs tomorrow myself, provided I don’t slip a disc getting out of bed. :-)

Good leg day. Volume and weight on leg press. Six set pyramid. Quad extensions, hamstring curls, straight leg deadlifts, calf raises.
[Reply]

Another good day in the gym. Back and arms. Went a bit lighter on the weight so I wouldn’t aggravate my neck. Also sticking to my goal of cardio every morning.
[Reply]

Glad it's going well, Bob! :-)

Back today after 4 days off for a herf. Ready to tear it up. :-)
