* bit of an experiment night tonight both overhand chins and dumbell rows hurt my right delt so i have been resting them (doing underhand on a partial ROM and barbell rows) so i took it easy tonight
* the rows hurt my delt if i lift too far forward if that makes sense, i did it on the third set so left it there

davetherave · 09-10-2008, 06:41 PM

i don't think the boxing the other day was a great idea or the bodyweight squats as my ankle is bu55ered again

driving is not helping as my ankle is obviously having to be bent to press the pedals, which i am beginning to think is preventing healing, which was further prevented by my training on monday

not a lot i can do about this though

my anticipated return date of saturday is not going to happen though :(

* i have not deadlifted since the 16th september so i kept the weights proper light, i usually deadlift on my toes so gave lifting with flat feet a go tonight
* i felt a weird feeling in the ankle so i didnt go too heavy and didnt push a 4th set, i could definately feel it is still very very far from being 100% unfortunately
* the pulls again didnt hurt my delt, a few more weeks of bodyweight then i may be able to start adding additional weight

davetherave · 18-10-2008, 12:27 AM

quick update

i ducked chest and triceps tonight as i am still gettign a few twinges in the left front delt from the session the other week when i hit 108kg again (my pb) so i decided to give it a rest tonight rather then train slightly in withdrawal as i did last friday

i shall come back stronger next friday

davetherave · 20-10-2008, 11:06 PM

cheers pal, constructive criticism at it's best

im hoping to get the inclines back up the extra 2kg to match my PB, the same can be said for the flat bench i suppose

skipped this session last week due to a niggling shoulder twinge, so i was expecting a bit more of a dip in poundages

cheers for popping in pal

davetherave · 27-10-2008, 10:43 PM

legs (no shoulders due to them being fooked)

squats (still easing in)
60kg 1x6
70kg 1x6
80kg 1x6
90kg 1x6

power cleans
25kg 1x6
35kg 1x6
55kg 1x6

good mornings (straight legs)
40kg 1x8
60kg 1x8
64kg 1x8
68kg 1x8

* still feeling my feet with the poundages, the piwer clean ones are the most embarassing
* onwards and upwards next comes rugby trainign and matches

davetherave · 29-10-2008, 10:45 PM

back and biceps

deadlifts
92kg 1x6
100kg 1x6
110kg 1x6
116kg 1x6

overhand pull ups
8,10,8

barbell bent over rows
60kg 1x8
70kg 1x8
74kg 1x8
76kg 1x6

suppinated incline dumbell curls
11.2kg 1x8
15.2kg 1x8

* the curls were pulling my dodgy left delt so sacked them off
* i think i need to decide on a routine and stick to it, all of this dumbell rowing for 3 weeks then reverting back to barbell rowing is not producing good enough poundages
* the deadlift weights are gettign there, slowly

davetherave · 30-10-2008, 08:06 PM

i'm not happy, i was going to try (rugby) training tonight but have sacked that idea off as i still cant move my foot in towards my groin (if that makes sense i mean i cant move my foot inwards so that my soles of my feet are facing to the left)

so i decided that rugby is still a few weeks away as if i get tackled i'll be over again

so ive been trying to find swimming pools as swimming is a good no contact exercises and it should ease me in, however there are none for miles

so my choice is either some sort of running on the streets which doesnt sound a good idea or a night of eating and the commencement of a bulk

davetherave · 01-11-2008, 05:59 PM

big news for today is i attempted to play, found out there was not a game on so i subbed for the 2nd team (2 teams up from where i usually play) didn't get on but did a bit of running to warm up

im back home now and can feel it so maybe im a bit away, i decided it was time i started using it properly

running wasnt a problem, changing direction one way wasnt, the other way was a bit more tricky
