Next episode in the saga of picking up heavy things and putting them back down again.
Today I will attempt to deadlift 585. I'm pretty confident it will get done.
My overhead press (overheard press?) is not progressing. Mayhap it's because of lack of dedication? It is hovering at the 250 mark. It seems that my posterior chain moves can suffer way less attention and not atrophy. So I guess I'm gonna' add some volume at that weight and see what happens. I want to find a place I can rope climb... I think that the eccentric-less nature and static pulling is precisely what I need to convivce my shoulder girdle that it can lift more. I wish there were more old school gyms out there. You know , the kind with weird steam boxes and India clubs.
On that note I'm gonna slack off on my squatting for a bit and do some iso-lateral stuff, like lunges and Bulgarian goat torture (split) squats. Maybe I'll look into doing pistols.
I suggested to chernobylred that she do a weird supplementary pushup workout. and I decided to try it myself as well so far I'm just doing 4 pushups 3 times a day. The plan is to slowly increase the volume in such a way that it is almost unnoticeable. So far I have noted no ill effects. High volumes of pushups tend to irritate my shoulder for some reason. Perhaps my shoulder was teased by a group of them as a small child?
I'm hoping I can do an end-run around my shoulder's trauma in this way.
