damn it dubs . .I get the same fkg shoulder doing bench. No probs with DB, just the BB. Physio can't really do much for it either. And I got strong rear delts and traps - all the stabilisers are there. WTF???
 
Yeah, it sucks. Just gonna do some rear delt work and mad stretching. Next up is back/bi's, then traps/abs or maybe a day off. Wanna let it rest before I go after chest again.

Weight is up to 257. This cycle has been a great success. Only sides are managable lethargy and some acne...which sucks but is ultimately worth it.
 
Think I'm gonna hafta cut this cycle short before the 4th week ends. I am EXTREMELY lethargic lately, can barely keep my eyes open, yawning all day, can barely focus on work. I'm also feeling feverish, sweating a LOT and experiencing muscle cramps.

Sucks, cuz up until this point, things have been going pretty well.

Gotta pick up a test booster and an oral syringe for nolva dosing. Gonna start PCT tomorrow or Thurs maybe.

Yeah Jake, gotta pick somethin up soon. If tomorrow is as bad as today and Monday were, then PCT will begin Thursday. Today's workout was kinda "eh"...just walked around, doing random things. Lethargy starting to creep into my workouts and inhibit my drive.
 
Yeah.........I've been tired as fukk, too!!!!!!! :(

H-drol ends on Thurs........got Nolv on hand but think Androstenetrione(6-OXO replacement) and Activate Extreme will suffice :147:

OK, so my left shoulder is effed. Was gonna do military presses, but avoided it so my rotator cuff would be fresh for bench press, etc on Sunday......but it still killed me after the cleans and due to the angle on the incline curls. I'm bummed. For some reason, pushups don't bother it though, so I might have to stick to those on chest day for a while. Balls.
 
dubs try out alternating db shoulder presses instead - lighter weight, high reps. . . works for me.

Same deal with bench - if my shoulder is phuc'd I can't bench, but I can db no probs.
 
Will give them a try on Sunday (supposed to be chest day) cuz I know I'll be effed if I try to do BB flat or incline. Must be my form or somethin, I don't have a good pectoral "mind-muscle connection"...mostly just push the weight up with whatever'll do it...tri's, shoulders, etc.

Gonna try some DB work and see how it feels. I actually think I might be primed for some better workouts soon. The lethargy from the M-Drol in Week 3 & 4 killed my drive. Still got incredible muscle pumps off one set of anything, but wasn't sharp and/or energetic at all.

REALLY happy about the 225x12 :afro: but still concerns w/my left shoulder. Did soooo much stretching between every set, did a bunch of cable stretches, light rear delt stuff...whatever I could do to keep it loose enough to get through the workout. Gonna proceed with caution. Day 3 of PCT and strength is pretty sweet.

hows that shoulder holding out dubs?

Still attached to my torso, fortunately. :happysad: Was hurtin after that first set of shoulder presses, but whaddya gonna do? Not do em? Not really an option. Incline bench on Friday...cross your fingers....

Oh, and btw, PCT rules! Still mad strong, but don't have any of the lethargy, etc. Hope I can keep a decent amount of this strength/weight after PCT winds down.
 
^^^ hit it with some Voltaren gel (anti-imflam.), and I would look into some Cissus (Try USPLabs SuperCissus RX bulk from NP) as well.

Haven't done the one-armed BB curls in a while...man, they're tough, especially if you try to stay strict w/it. :drillsergeant:

My left shoulder is messed up the same as yours. Mine hurts doing bench only though. I probably need surgery. It isn't so bad once I get a few sets in though and it warms up.

How come I see no squats in this log? Bad knees? Vagina?
 
OK, so those of you who know me from the Clean Thread, the "old forum", etc...know that I live hard, eat dirty and party often. I love hittin the weights, but my consistency hasn't been great.

Well, like so many have said before me..."I'm getting back into it"

Here's some info, then I'll get to my first workout.

28yrs old
6' 7'' 245lbs
Lifting on and off since college
PR's: Bench 315x1, Squat 405x2, Dead 425x1

I don't have a set "goal" other than to look good naked and to work out enough to balance out my lifestyle. Also, I'm dealing with some ankle and knee injuries, so don't break my balls if you don't see enough leg work. I'm no stranger to squats/deads/etc, and I'll be doing them again when my joints are all healed.

;)

That, and I stubbed my clitoris. Been pretty tender lately... :happysad:

OK, so here's the explanation behind this workout. I haven't done squats (or anything leg related) for a loooong time. I know I'm gonna be a cripple after doing them, so I kept it light and will gradually work my way back to the heavier stuff. The rationale behind the rest of it......brought the wife with me and told her "do whatever you want and I'll do it with you". Usually I try telling her what to do, but this time I was just happy she came with me, so I bit my tongue and just did whatever.

I'm as weak as a kitten, with all the endurance of the Marlboro Man. Down to 250 lbs as well. It's amazing what a difference 1 week of non-training has after Week 4 of a PCT. :happysad: Still looking decent, so it shouldn't be that hard to get back on track. Next weekend's wedding shouldn't help though... :cheers:
