Thats my problem with alot of machine's weight limits but high reps and dropsets make it intense
Yea if it doesnt heal this week , will likely train one side of my body and legs, next week.

Update on my shoulder
Still cant lift my arm over my head without assistance from the other arm.
I couldnt flex my bicep yesterday, but can somewhat now, its just very difficult.
It seems maybe SLIGHTLY better. Very slight. Im taking some anti inflames every 12 hours, but only for 2 days. I dont have that many

198 lbs before meals and after a week of no training. Shoulder is feeling much better but still needs time to heal. I may give it another week off before training upper body again. Will see. Might do legs at end of week

12-02-09 Biceps,Shoulders And Abs (15 mins cardio)
Very light low volume routine. First training session in over a week. Seeing how my shoulder responds and gettin some blood in the muscles is all. No shoulder pain at all during this session. If so , very slight.
Also figured out how to get my shake up to 2600 calories and 103 grams protein. That should be useful for gaining:
8 tablespoon peanut butter, 6 tablespoons olive oil, 16 oz milk, banana, 4 scoops carbo hydrate powder and 4 scoops cytogainer

Shoulder was feeling like normal basically. So I ended up going a little heavy on the machine presses. The difference is, most of my sets were full range of motion and getting the negatives in too, not slamming against the stops with partial reps.
Most of my training is ballistic , explosive usually. So Im going to try and change it up to avoid injuries. I will try more time under tension for a while and see if I can grow like that.
I may even try to grow my chest on mainly hammer strength machines. Maybe some dumbbells too. The benches damage my shoulders the most. Will try that for a while most likely.
I have grown my back to its largest on all machine work and chin ups. Mostly hammer strength machines, with some cable machines like lat pulldown and low cable rows.
The back is a much more stubborn, massive, and stronger set of muscles. So I figure if machines can grow my back, the chest should respond too with enough intensity.:
(198 lbs after meal and water)
Hammer Strength Incline Press: (All reps done slow and controlled, no bounce, and full locked out. Except for the sets listed as FAST. These were banged out more sloppy with no negative. On most all sets the final rep was held for a full negative as well)
180x40 (Full reps with all unless otherwise noted)
270x14
320x8
360x8
360x7

The beast is back. I see I posted here back in 2009 briefly. I moderated here between 2003-2004. Decided to update the journal. Was not able to get back into my old account but sent an email to the staff. If any moderators can help would be appreciated.
Otherwise I can post the updates through this slightly different screen name. This time around I have training videos and have put on maybe 40 lbs since the last time I posted here. Though that weight fluctuates. I took myself out from training back in late 2004 with some ruptured discs, ignoring pain. I now have 6 ruptured discs, carpal tunnel in both hands, (numbness in hands for 4 years), hiatal hernia with alot of acid but still KILLIN THAT SHIT!!
Most likely no one will remember because its been a while, but this journal has alot of good training history in it, so its worth a try to see how feedback will be here currently. This used to be the best site where I had my journal, feedback wise.
(I need 25 posts, or too re instate my old account before I can post pics and videos, Ill try to get that resolved and update)
These were semi pumped, after arms. Im by no means lean, but around 233 lbs currently, was 242, but larger measurement wise at this weight. After taking myself out in late 2004 , I was out of training 2 years and lost all size. I then trained from 2007 to currently. Had some breaks though. The longest was a 10 month break that I took maybe 4 months ago or longer. So now Ive come back from that and am at my overall largest.
Arms have been 19 1/2 cold, but right now 19 1/4 cold (maybe around 19 3/4 pumped, have been 20 pumped), chest is now 55 inches cold flexed (hard to self measure, sometimes comes out at 55 3/4, but I think 55 is more accurate), legs around 28 inches, have been 29 and waist is big.
I have around 300 lifting videos now as well on youtube. So Ill link that as well. Ill post my current training and videos if feedback is good.
Ill link the videos later, I need 25 posts
