My shoulder feels GREAT!

I did Shoulders last night... just went light, and ramped up to my working weight... with no pain at all... stretched REALLY well etc... felt GREAT!

Today I'm 179.3lbs... I feel like I'm kinda plateauing... Meh... I'll keep'r goin'... I've added like 1%bf, and a good 8lbs... so I must be on track... we'll ride it out, and see if I'm able to gain.. if not, I'll have to up the cals again..

I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO hungry this morning... and I weighed in @ 174... :S Very weird... dunno what the deal there was/is... I've been eating my diet correctly.. if anything I cheated, had a beer, and a chimi last night... Ahhh well..

I haven't been doing ANY cardio at ALL.... so I'm gunna start that in the mornings as well... I feel SO bloated, and gross... and I can almost FEEL my metabolism chugging along... I wanna get burning properly and make sure I'm firing on all cylinders so to speak.

So...

30 minutes of low intensity cardio in the AM for me... 4 - 5 times a week...

So I've been stretching a lot more, and am trying to get more flexible... I'm @ 179 this morning... feelin' pretty good... my diet has gone to the shits as of late... gunna get back on track...

So far today:

- Shake (protein, berries, oats, banana, Udo's, ice)


- 6 Eggs and a green apple

- 2 tuna patties, veg, and a green apple

That's it... I figure I'll have another shake after training, then a lemon chicken dinner with veg of some kind.. not sure what yet though...

Yes ma’am…

So I’m sittin’ at the gym yesterday… waiting for my buddy to take my pics… I waited a whole extra hour and a 1/2, and no dice… the batteries on his camera were dead! MAN! Ahhh well… I’ll take new pics on Tuesday… we’ll see… I *think* I’m a little leaner… we’ll see though….

BTW.. my shoulder is STILL sore…. :S I hate this… I can’t do a lot of overhead stuff, and benching is out… I’m gunna try dips (not too low) for my chest… see how that feels… any other good chest exercises, that don’t involve the shoulder? :S I suppose I could do cross-overs… we’ll see…

Well I did 1/2 hour of cardio this morning.. felt great.. I was 181lbs, and feel bloated... sucks... so this cardio should help... and more water... that's key...

You can stay away from the heavy weights and use cables, light weight, for a type of active recovery. Sorry so late. I do believe I just answered this question dejavu... anyway I stated somewhere that the shoulder I believe is a synergist to chest exercises (like bench) so I suppose if you lighten the load and move to a cable exercise it MAY be better for you if the shoulder isn't healed and you aren't resting it! and if you absolutely must do something. Weren't you going to get it worked on?

Ice for inflammation.

How are you feeling?
