HEY!!! Were you going thru my desk?!?!? My cookie looks JUST LIKE THAT! Ha ha

This is WAYYYYYY to funny! No wonder people think we are all off on the way we eat....
Ha ha ha... I had a PB craving last night... I totally skip that aisle at the market. I mean my head is turned the whole opposite direction. I think that's what I want for my post comp food of choice. Natural Crunchy PB, with a Hmmmmm Nice piece of chocolate.
I really don't have the cravings though THANK GOD!!! Not even like I would have imagined. I thought I would be going crazy...
Hope you enjoyed your cookie

You know what I did? I'm such a dumbass! lol I came in to tan before the studio opened and when I got about a mile down the road when I left, I cussed out loud because I FORGOT MY COOKIE!!! So now I have to stare at it for ANOTHER week! I ended up getting some Ben & Jerry's choc ice cream with chunks of brownie in it and a single serving cherry pie.

Hmmmmm, De Brand's Chocolate is here in town. Maybe I'll bring you a little post comp treat!

EC, YES

9:30 AM
6 Chic Nuggets (still have a few from yesterday)
2 SesaPure, 2 Glucorell

12:30 PM
2 Turkey Burger Patties
2 Tsp Honey Mustard
2 Hoodia

*I got my order from dps today and also my order from Anafit last Friday, so I'm now FAITHFULLY taking SesaPure again and starting Hoodia *per Sassy's posts* and Glucorell. I realized that my progress wasn't really going anywhere and also realized that #1 I haven't been taking my Sesa like I had in the past and #2 my calories are a little too high and I'm always hungry (hence the Hoodia). We'll see how this goes.

I've also been told my my CMT NOT to train my shoulders When I said I've got chest today, she said NO. SOOOOOOOO, LEGS IT IS!!!! We're aggressivly treating my shoulder with myofacial release 2x per week until further notice. When it starts getting a little better, we'll drop it down to 1x per week...etc., etc.

So, do you think if there is no pain when I train it would be ok? I find when I do lighter weight I don't have any shoulder pain while training........this is just happening at the WRONG time with all these shows coming up! How am I supposed to look my best when I'm not on top of my game?!?!?!?!

Hmmmmmm
O.k. I'm going to comment here on the shoulder take it or leave it....
I would never suggest to someone to stop totally doing something unless they had a sharp pain. I would suggest that you still train shoulders maybe do more like a physical therapy routine for them. Making sure to hit all the muscles equally. Let me guess.... Your supr, and infr are loaded with knots?!?! That's what I typically see. In which case reverse DB flyes, or lying on your side, arm bent at 90 degrees (upper arm stays against your side) and abduct your forearm from 90 until perpendicular to the ground and then back to parallel. That will help strengthen the back of the shoulder. Also, when strengthening the back of the shoulder (if you currently are feeling any pain along the bicipital groove) it should help pull the shoulder joint back into it's proper location. Not moving something and keeping it stagnate helps assist people in getting frozen shoulder syndrome. Not good.
Again... just a suggestion. I would go lighter on chest day.

Thank you for commenting, Treil. It's not muscle soreness, it's in the joint itself. It's posterior and toward the top of the joint (under the acromion). I always train rear delts and they're pretty developed - toot toot! lol I've been warming up with some rotator extensions, which actually feel REALLY good when I do them. I just use a little 5# DB to warm up before I go to my actual training for the day. I usually only experience a sharp pain when I go too heavy. It's a good thing I'm not bulking right now.....I'd be perturbed!!!

With that said....do you have anything to add?

More then likely is the SIT attachments points (They are on the posterior shoulder joint)
I understand it's not the muscles that are sore... But if the joint is hurting posteriorly I'm still assuming that the muscles need more strengthening in comparison to the front of the shoulder.
I'm not saying your posterior rotators are not developed I'm saying that your chest muscles may be more developed then the rotators and in that case the rotators will start stretching. (Tug of war between the two so to speak)
The most vulnerable point is where you will start feeling the pain (posterior shoulder joint at the SIT attachment)
So she needs to work on those muscles getting the knots out, but also give you chest stretching exercises so that the chest muscles can go back to their normal tonus which will allow the eccentric rotators to go back to their normal tonus. I'm sorry if that's confusing...
So do extra chest stretching, and the posterior shoulder strengthening work. It always feels better to finish your routine with the posterior work especially after you've done all that pushing (with chest day or shoulder day).
5 pounds is actually not a bad weight. Unless you feel a sharp pain I wouldn't worry to much about the dull achey stuff.
Also ice the shoulder 15 minutes and take some IBuprofen to get some of the inflammation settled down. I would do that right after any major upper body work. It will also help you out.
