This is just about as much for me as it is for everyone else.
I want to see everyone's short term goals here and then we will get to the long term goals. I want to really see who is biting off too much. We all know small term goals are the real secret to success. To many people set goals to high to fast and need to notch it down a bit and set a few smaller ones in order to see the big picture. Let's start with small term goals. I want to hear from everyone I will go first. 1. get to be consistent with my workouts week in and week out. 2. Decrease my caloric intake by about 500 calories and replace them with whole foods 3. Cardio I want to be constant until the month of November with walking 1 hour each morning at least 5 days out of the week and 4 days during the evening walking 30 minutes in the afternoon. I know these are 3 goals but they are small and I want to make sure they are done. Nothing to big but just enough to keep me on track.

WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT YOUR SHOULDER DID YOU PULL A MUSCLE OR DOES IT HURT LIKE A ROTATER CUP ? MY SHOULDER FEELS LIKE IT'S POPING OUT OF PLACE, I CAN HOLD A WEIGHT LIKE I'M REACHING FOR THE FLOOR AND SWIRL THE WEIGHT SLOWLY AND IT WILL POP SLIGHTLY AND IT FEELS BETTER TILL I MAX OUT. THEN I START OVER AGAIN. I'D LIKE TO HEAR YOUR INSIGHT ON WHAT MIGHT BE GOING ON WITH MY SHOULDER. THANKS |

SORRY GUYS I PUT THE LAST ONE IN THE WRONG PLACE.
1. FOCUS ON MY 3OO LB BENCH (I'M AT 260 AND WILL BE MAXING OUT NEXT MONDAY). 2. CUT ALL SWEETS AND GET BACK ON TRACK WITH THE DIET. 3. DO MORE SQUATS AND DEADLIFTS |

Having said that it doesnt not at all sound like the same pain you are having. You didnt mention pain during lifting. I'm in no way trying to diagnosis your injury, but it sounds like shoulder instability possibly. What I personally would do is try and strengthen my roator cuff. I would start my upper body workouts with external and internal rotations. These are not the best but since i'm laid up in a sling I couldnt make a video of them so I guess they will have to do. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=23s4w...eature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pY7StHYXps In the video the guy doesnt do it, BUT in order to do the exercise correct you need to roll up a towel and keep it between your elbow and side. This will help keep your elbow in towards your body. I always just use a cable machine when i'm in the gym to do this. 1 would do 2-3 sets of 15 on both of these. REMEBER NOT TO GO TOO HEAVY. It defeats the whole purpose of doing the exercise if you start using other muscles, so just be under control and dont worry about heavy weights. I would do that and maybe switch to DB flat presses for a couple weeks to also help with stabilizer muscles(Nothing wrong with switching it up for a little bit). I would keep the reps in the 10-12 rep range(for the DB Press) just for a couple weeks. After that keep with the external/internal rotations and build up to doing your normal workouts. If the problem keeps up after that, then I would either stop maxing out if that is causing the problem or get it looked at. Sorry for the long post, but I Hope that helps some!

Short term: Find J.O.B., come up with reasonable workout schedule and manage to keep trivial stuff from giving me excuses. Also need to come up with 'quality time' for Jeremyn before he leaves for Iraq.
Long term: Get back into school. Y membership by the time Jeremyn's gone. (Or my own freeweights!) |
