Haha knew you'd approve.

Yeah ya know..the shoulders are great on shoulder day, no pain to speak of.
After every chest day though my front delts are killin me. They feel fine during the workout normally but starting a few hours after they almost feel like they are inflamed and irritated.

Strange. You ever take Aleve after chest day?

I generally take a couple advil the day after. It gives a little relief but not a whole lot.

Its weird, its not just like sore, like my chest gets sore as shit so i dont think im letting the delts take too much of the load on my presses or anything. Its almost like a burning, but not hot to the touch, no swelling or anything, it's strange.

Standing OHP will put hair on your chest meat on your bones and numbers in your phone, trust me I'm a doctor. Looks like a good workout man, watch for those failure lifts though especially on your cut be best to avoid em, I know you wanna push yourself but push to the brink not all the way over it'll help with recovery for sure while you eat lesser then your body is asking for

There was a chick mirin while i was doing them,damn shame im a faithful man hahaha.

Yeah i definitely try to avoid missing reps, i was just trying to get an idea of where i was at on these.

Any insight on what seven and i were talkin about? I know you're somewhat of an injury expert hahahah

I am not familiar with this term...this "tiger balming"? Hahah

 

[RodgerThat]

Sounds to me like you need to cool them after to reduce inflammation intramuscularly, lay only your back take a nap with a bag of peas of ice pack on both shoulders 10-15 mins max with it on any longer and its conterproductive. Also I hate to be "that guy" but are you stretching em out real good after? Possibly could use a lacrosse ball to aid in recovery roll the shit outa dem delts to loosen them up post workout so you aren't walking around tight shouldered

I'll give that a go next chest day, luckily i happen to have a surplus of bags of frozen stuff for that.

As for the stretching.....id say yes, but it would be the same yes that i give the dentist when he asks if i floss everyday hahahahha
I'll order a lacrossee ball. Hell honestly i feel tight all over, i would probbaly do well to pay and go get a full body deep tissue massage.

You know Tiger Balm''''''ing. Lol I think its Thai...

Hmmm never heard of it. I'll check into that as well.

Decent workout, pretty surprised at the 2x3 205 inclines especially after the flats.

Dont seem to have any delt pain but sometimes it comes on later, although i did do alot more stretching before i started benching today so maybe that helped.

Also my lacrossee ball came today @RodgerThat i just kinda set it between the area i wanna hit and just kind of push hard and roll it around?

I'm interested in this as well. I've been thinking about getting freaky and rubbing down with one of these lacrosse balls myself just not sure how to do it proper.

Ya bud just put in on the meaty tissue and press against a wall or the ground and roll around it'll work no need to over complicate it
