Thanks gents. Gonna figure it out based on how I feel once I start moving weight. I would love to switch to DBs for a few weeks but they beat the shyt outta my SH even worse. I know I am internally rotating and thats whats causing the issue... Might switch to floor presses since they minimize shoulder rotation...
Ever tried a closer grip ? I found that to help my shoulder a lot

That should also maintain your power. Don't ditch the bench for dbells (obv, since they bug you), just drop volume to only 531 like you said. When my old back injury rears it's head, I just cut my deadlift volume to nothing. I just pull singles after a warm up and my back is happy as a camper. When it's been happy for a while I'll add some volume back in. But I usually get even stronger despite crazy low volume on it.

Btw I'm not gonna ditch bench, just gonna buy a red slingshot. The double ply almost killed me

Floor press
5@225, 5@225, 3@275
Bb Bench w/slingshot
10@315, crashed at 365!
DB bench (neutral grip felt great)
20@80, 20@80, 18@80, 16@80, 16@80
Pec Fly Machine
15@210, 14@210, 15@190
DB Row
20@70, 20@70, 15@70

So that was something scary for sure. Lessons learned: don't go all out with a new toy and buy some wrist wraps. If that safety bar wasn't there to take most of the force I probably wouldn't have walked out of the gym tonight but it still hurt like hell and knocke the wind out of me. I almost passed out when I stood up... Hopefully I don't have anything painful pop up tomorrow...

If you crank em to high heaven, they make the weight feel lighter too - bigtime confidence boost for me.
Yeah I'm an idiot for trying heavy with something I've never used before

sucks bro....we all do stupid things every now and then. Hope nothing too bad.
You know what really sucks is I've put up 365 before raw. The slingshot made 315 feel like 275 but with no shoulder pain at all so I figured moving up would be no problem. The way it forces your elbows in made my wrist break form and I noticed it around rep 7 at 315 and had to lock out my wrist. I didn't take it into account when I moved up to 365 and my wrist bent back and the weight just fell hard. Fortunately I maintained grip the whole time otherwise it might have been ugly...

I think wrist wraps are something that I need. They are always popping, especially my right hand since I've broken it like 5 times now. Any suggestions on wraps? As for you my brother, as Nacho would say "take it eassssy"! You always end up seeing/hearing about people on cycle going too hard and messing themselves up, but I get what you mean. The weight you could do, just mechanical failures lol

I'm impossible to kill. It's been proven many times before :)
Been shot. Been stabbed. Been hit by vehicles. Been in some pretty bad dirtbike falls, one bad motorcycle wreck. A handful of decent car accidents. Skull bashed in. Fallen off buildings. Drowning accidents. And a shyt ton of other close calls... Wow I just realized how long this list really could be. Yikes

Some people get less than nine lives, other inherit the ones that are left over. I'm pretty sure I've gone through about 12 lives myself.

I have this theory about parallel universes. It says that there are infinite universes so there is a possibility that many are practically the same. So the same life is being played out and in some of these universes you die from something you just survived from. Someplace somewhere my friends and family have grieved for my loss many times over... Probably complete bullshyt! Hahaha

Take 2lbs chicken breast and a 16oz jar of salsa and throw them in the crock pot for 4-5 hours. At that point, pull the chicken apart (like shredded chicken/pulled pork). Let it cook for another 1-2 hours. Enjoy.

Are these breast frozen or thawed?

I've done both and it doesn't really matter in a crock pot. I use the thin cut breasts though, so I'm sure that makes a difference. I think at 2lbs, 20oz of salsa is better.

True, but I think it cooking that long lets a lot of the water out by way of steam. It has turned out good both ways for me. At the same time, by the time I eat it, I'm usually starving so I smash my serving in a very short amount of time (too quickly to taste). I usually add tapatio or cholula for flavor as well.

No word from Heavy and honestly Im not too sure he checks his mail daily so Im just gonna throw it up in here today and probably start a new thread tomorrow...

The pics were fine, it mustve been the anecdotal evidence that supports vaccinations of our youth from Penn & Teller that got flagged. Not sure if I violated a rule or if someone just reported me for controversial subject matter...
