I had both my rotator cuffs repaired, so I know your pain "intimately"!!
Good that you could still tuff it out! Hope there's no further damage though!
Missed out on my leg workout yesterday. Taking care of my son. But going in there shortly to make up for it. Today's supposed to be a rest day.

My left rotator is bascially gone, Brian, goes from an annoyance most days to a throbbing demon on a few others. Surgeons laugh at the idea that it could be repaired. :-)

Have a good leg workout!

Tom, what day are you getting in for the herf?
[Reply]

Thursday, early afternoon I believe.
[Reply]

So we can hit shoulders Saturday before the herf?
[Reply]

You know I always take the herfs as my breaks from lifting, Huy.

But if I was going to lift out of town before a herf....shoulders would be the LAST thing I would train on vacation. Too much ouch. :-) j

Good job, Huy. :-)

Unscheduled day off today, and not happy about it. :-)
[Reply]

Glad I found this thread!

I started lifting again about 4 months ago after a decade long layoff.

Supersetted bis/tris yesterday and chest/back is tomorrow morning.

This week has been an odd one for me since I've been on PTO from my normal job and have been working for a buddy doing some painting this week. So I lifted on monday (legs) and hadn't lifted again until bis/tris yesterday. So i'm looking forward to getting back to my routine.

International Chest Day.

I get to the gym and some guy I've never seen before is doing supersets....but far from super. He was trying to reserve 3 different pieces of equipment, including the bench I needed, but taking 5 minutes+ between sets .....not between supersets, but between sets within a superset. After 2 go-rounds I told him he was done hogging 3 pieces of equipment and that I would be using the bench. Hedecided to get the **** out.

Inclines (super high reps) 185, 205, 225, 245, 265, 225, 185
Declines (low reps) 275, 315, 315, 315, 275
Bench (medium reps) 275, 275, 275, 275
