    So had to take pics so see where the fat has gone.

    Definitely mid section.

    Pic in towel I would say is mid November maybe December. Not sure if weight cause I wasn't weighing my self. But I was typically low 190s

    Pics with the tat on chest was just now after a shower.

    Hope I can get back to it. Cardio is hard right now. Thinking I'm gonna start some core stabilizing movements, which will "help" back too.

    Everyone's before and after pics are amazin. You guys really kicked some ass. Despite genetics hard work can go a long way. I just killed my back this afternoon. Thinkin my estrogen may have alot to Do with me holding so much fat. My diet has been decent but not much has changed as far as bodyfat goes. Always hated cardio and could stay fairly lean without it being on cycle. Chest or legs tommorow havent made up my mind yet

    been skimming the thread. Seems everyone is hitting it!

    One hour spin. The weight area was over packed. There were at least 40 ppl in dB and non-machine area. Crazy!

    Not particularly jazzed about tonight's lift but I did get it done. Defo have to compensate for this shoulder for a few weeks at least I believe. That will affect arms, shoulders, and chest sessions but I believe it's doable. If not better after that I'll call the Dr. and get her to set me an appointment at the local imaging place.
    Supported biceps exercises are going to be a thing for a while, so I may really slow.down the rep speed on those since this was my last pullback lift this time. The pain is lower down the anterior that it was before so maybe I just strained the d@mn thing?

    I did do some shoulder work with my red band prior to lifting. Think it is only a 10-35 lb. band?

    Incline d'bell curls- 2 w/u, Work1-7 reps, drop a little weight, Work2-5 reps. These were uncomfortable @ the anterior. May ditch these for awhile and use some pretty slow seated concentration curls in its place.
    Preacher curls off back.of bench- 1 w/u, Work1-4 reps + 2 forced reps.Drop a little weight. Work2- 7 reps. These felt much better.
    Standing close grip cable curls- Work1- 10 reps. Drop weight. Work2-7 reps. These were OK in the pain department.
    Close grip Smythe press- 3 w/u, Work1- 7 reps. Drop weight. Work2- 6 reps. Some pain, but I used less weight. I'd rather keep these if possible.
    Triceps pressdown- 2 w/u, Work1-6 reps. Drop weight. Work2-6 reps. These weren't too uncomfortable.

    40 minutes not including shoulder work. Shoulders are next in the rotation so I will lead that off with more band work, cable side laterals and save d'bell presses for later in the lift and adjust from there.
    I did bump my Voltaren tabs up to 2/day starting now. My script is for 2/day but I was trying to get by on 1/day. Will see if that helps. LOL, glad I stocked up on Voltaren cream.

    Legs -

    Really struggled - my strength and motivation was sky high but my lungs gave up before I could really dig deep into my reserve power units. Need to up my cardio to help this issue but I was one big fuk off bear gasping for air between sets.

    Leg extension
    reverse V squat
    squats
    lying leg curls
    standing calve raises
    seated calve raises

    V squat - took it out of me, set myself up in a good position. Braced myself and went down deep without lockout

    Just be careful with close stance hacks if your going heavy - you don't want your knee flaring out sideways away from the foot it needs to be in the same direction of the foot. I do like hacks myself

    Right on and I do make sure I'm braced coming out of the lock out w/everything pointing forward always pushing out on the knees eccentrically and concentrically

    I'm getting more comfortable in the seat(hips back and exploding up w/head trying to hit the bar atop

    No, you need your knee to go in the same direction of the foot, don't push them out so its not in line with the foot that's the mistake and can cause serious injury. The knee should always follow the foot position and should never go over the foot either. Ive seen loads of guys blow the knee's out on the hacks bending the legs, horrible to watch

    Yessir I understand - I misread your quote - yes everything stays in line with the foot - knee never over toes! I've seen it too and actually tore my quad that way - I learned the hard way but things are feeling great now...

    In line with the foot(foot is straight forward as is the knee and it never goes over the toe!

    If real heavy I may go to shoulder width...

    Shoot, I leave a trail of sweat and sound like an old steam engine, especially on leg day. Thought it was normal.

    Just got done with chest. I'm improvising with almost everything due to the thumb.. light weight and trying to get a decent pump. Trying hard not to irritate it so it heals properly. Good to see everyone at it, struggles and all.

    Watch the thumb. You don't want a delay. But good for you on getting it done.

    Morning all. Biceps after work & hopefully a cardio/abs session after a very light dinner.

    AG, finding a way to eliminate painful exercises & work around the shoulder?

    AG, finding a way to eliminate painful exercises & work around the shoulder?
    I think so, Prox. The next lift is shoulders so I should.find out a good bit from it and then when chest rolls around again I think there will be some adjustments there temporarily as well.
    The external rotations you told me about are defo helping and the one movement I mentioned to you that really seems to push blood into the anterior is helping a bit too. I think I may have gotten lucky, but I don't want to swear to it and put a hex on the whole mess.
    My Therabands material and my larger red band are really useful. Probably will get the wife to work on the anterior with the small Rumble Roller and then a baseball afterwards if she's up for it.

    So had to take pics so see where the fat has gone.

    Definitely mid section.

    Pic in towel I would say is mid November maybe December. Not sure if weight cause I wasn't weighing my self. But I was typically low 190s

    Pics with the tat on chest was just now after a shower.

    Hope I can get back to it. Cardio is hard right now. Thinking I'm gonna start some core stabilizing movements, which will "help" back too.

    It can be a very effective push/pull combination vs. an all push combo lift like chest and tris. It's a nice change of pace to tinker around and freshen things up a little occasionally. I would still base it on HIT principles and hammer chest first and then decimate biceps. The next time I would put biceps first and then pound away on chest. It's surprising how much of an difference little tweaks or just changing the order of exercises can make.
    Sounds like you're back in your groove, DCI. I know you had school going on too which doesn't make things easy.
