well the past is catching up to me, or at least my shoulder. long time ago i damaged it in football, that hampered me from training any press heavy. years later as i started down the path of strongman i found no issue wit hmy shoulder. recently it has reared its head... today proved it. pain in my arm and elbow, as if i had tendinitis. the shoulder is starting to be stiff and lacks range of motion. but does that stop me? hell no!
i made it through before and with proper care i can do it again. ice and rest along with aspirin will help. a lot of stretching is part of my plan. towel or band stretches have really helped. a good massage will also be beneficial. wish i could afford ART, which would really be the best to fix this. i think a true mark of a champion is knowing when to listen to your body...think mine is telling me "next week is going to be light"
power cleans 135x2, 155, 175, 195, 215--nope!, 135x3
high pulls 405x2 5 sets
upright rows 135x10 5 sets
pushdown/extension 60x10/8 5 sets
treadmill 30 minutes
that's about it...weight dropped one pound, guess the cleaned up diet and cardio is helping. looking forward to the weekend. will be relaxing with the 'rents
