Po-tay-toh - Po-tah-toh

     It was shoulder day today! Everything went smoothly so let's get right into it. Here's what got done:

••••••••••

O.H. PRESS:

Bar x10 STRICT

55lb x10 STRICT

(60lb x6) 4x Most were strict, there were some push presses in there.

MACHINE REAR DELT FLY:

(60lb x10) 4x

MACHINE PRESS:

(45lb x10) 2x

(50lb x10) 2x

2 sets @ ea. weight with pronated

2 sets @ ea. weight with neutral

DB T & Y:

(10lb x5 ea. movement) 4x

DB REAR DELT FLY:

(10lb x10) 4x

ISOLATERAL SHOULDER PRESS MACHINE:

Look back to my notes from June 19th on this machine and how I list the weights.

20lb per arm x3

15lb per arm x5

15lb per arm x5 - one arm at a time

DEAD HANGS:

29.77 seconds

29 seconds

11 seconds

17 seconds

••••••••••

     OK, I was feeling really bummed about those dead hangs. That was until I looked back at the last time I did them and saw that I originally started with three sets of only 10 seconds. I guess I have improved. I've also increased in weight and sets on the press, but for some reason, went backwards on the machine rear fly. The machine press got better and the isolateral press kinda stayed the same.

     Overall, I can see that obviously things are improving - numbers don't lie. But I still feel like an old potato. Frank said I look strong, but I think he would say that to make me feel better. I don't think he would ever agree that I look like a potato. 

     In any case, tomorrow is squat day so of course I'm nervous. My knee sleeves will be on, my back belt will be at the ready and I am DETERMINED to squat capably and without pain. I have no delusions of going over 95lbs. We'll just hold it there and see how I can rep it out. We shall see what we shall see.
