Goal: Jacked inner pecs and thunderous biceps

Update.....took Sun and Mon off, hadn't taken 2 days in a row off in a while.....came in yesterday to bench and had some issues......

Starting warming up, and just didn't feel right....tendons felt a little tired etc, plus I got sunburned pretty bad on Sun, and I was uncomfortable on the bench.

Flat Bench: 135x15, 225x15, 315x5, 375x3 (none were as easy as I expected them to be, but no problems up to this point).....375x2 (supposed to be 3, on 3rd rep, I squirmed a little and lost tightness in my upper back cause the sunburn rubbed against the bench wrong, lol....so my elbows flared, I lost my groove, and missed the 3rd rep)....my right shoulder was killing me at this point, so I called it a night. Today it is sore, but not injured, no problems with ROM or anything, just a real pain in the ass....but I will rest it for a few days and go from there.

sucks about the shoulder, and you notice it always happens when you're on a roll with pressing? ice for that non-team playing joint

 

[Cynical Simian]

Looks like we can add spending time in the sun to bowling and playing catch on the "seemingly innocuous stuff that will screw up our lifting" list.

Good to hear that it's not serious...

Yeah, Tweakle, I iced it last night on an off for a good bit.

It is one of those things thats happened probably 50 times over the last 15 years, very annoying and yeah, it always seems to happen when you hit a stride.

UR probably overtraned. LoL

Hope it feels 100% soon.

dat shit just banged up

 

[fallingeggs]

i got a question for you biggt, if i press out the last 2 inches of a power snatch is that a missed lift?

Also, correct me if I am wrong, when I am pulling the bar (past the hang and before the ducking under) there should be a good amount of ‘swinging’ with the back to toss the weight up and the arms are ropes that should stay fairly straight (but with a slight bend).

p.s. I should figure out the correct terminology.
