oh never again almost done with them . its been awhile just thought about it this am . so figured i would pass along the info . and thanks for reading it . coming back from shoulder injury and actually 90 percent back. so lifting the heavy weights again
 
The little spence that could ....RAAAAWR
Toot toot..come on everybody lets ride that train. I know i can i know i can. wooot .


exercise /one rep max in march (pre injury)/ now (post injury)

squats / 255 pounds one rep max /265 pounds one rep max
flat bench/ 160 pounds one rep max /177 pounds one rep max
deadlifts / 225 pounds one rep max /305 pounds one rep max
dumbbell rows/unknown one rep max /85 pounds one rep max
Military press/115 pounds one rep max /130 pounds one rep max
Barbell curl /unknown one rep max/100 pounds one rep max (ok form)

So yea i guess im doing it right cause i am progressing . Also got me thinking about specific routines i am doing right now . cause i am well below those weights with my current routine however my reps are higher obviously. One thing i noticed though i have to work on my core. cause my core was giving out in alot of those lifts. So will be researching core routines cause i dont want to suffer injury on them . Now im dog tired. but this gives me alot to think about . routine im doing etc. Hmmmm..well that is all for now .

***edit***

def can feel too that i hurt shoulder as well cause that side was a little weaker but still all good
 
Lookin good brother. Shoulder rehab is a must. I say that from the standpoint of a guy with chronic shoulder pain that could have easily been prevented.

Keep at it! Maybe you can muster up enough motivation and mail some North to Ohio for me.:veryhappy:

To be a champ and the man easiest way is to shadow those that have gone before u . those who have paid the price. Cause even out of the shadows ur mark is left.

To be in a contest is one thing . To live the contest is quite another. Sacrifices are made. For an outsider would consider us martyr'ers but for us it is living the destiny which we have already considered the cost and now carry our cross

I am currently working 6 days a week 10 hour shifts. its crazy and then i got a shift bid going on at work that everyone has to do so who knows what my new shift is . will find out in two weeks. so i gots the stress..why do i tell this . cause if i can do it and eat right and take my vitamins and drink my milk and be a hulkamanic then anyone can. Preperation is key...(not preperation H fools) but it makes you or breaks you.
 
Good workout man!

And excellent on the work shift, too many people say they don't have time to workout...My work shift just went from 12 hours 7 days a week to 11 hours 7 days a week...and it may sound retarded, but I feel like I have so much time to spare now, even after working out lol.
