6-11-09 Thursday Chest,Abs,Calves (15 mins cardio)
Cut routine short to let right shoulder heal. Joint is very sore. Hit a PR with full reps on the incline, with 225 though.
Tommorrow is also a heavy day. Back. Monday I will try to hit chest more recovered. I may go back to flat bench presses as my first chest session of the week. First chest session is also the strongest, thats why I cycle them. Seems the higher volume of incline work, by doing them first in week, is leading to more shoulder strain. So possibly hit flat bench first this week.
Will likely go back to partial reps as well, since the full reps give me more shoulder strain. I did some full reps to change it up and also just to see where I was at with the full reps. The partials have been working very well for me to build chest size and strength.

(207 lbs after meal)
Incline Bench Press:
135x20
225x30 (PR. Full range reps, PR for full reps)
275x18 3/4 (Not locked out til end. Did these partial cuz less strain on delt)
Flat Bench Press:
225x31 (Not locked out til end)
Three sets of 50 reps of decline sit ups, some reps with 35lb plate on chest
Another low volume day. Lots of strain in my right shoulder joint. I KILLED a few target sets though.
Considering I have been sacrificing some of my eating on weekends, due to being busy, and that my shoulder is in pain slowing me down. I was happy to hit 315 for 10 full reps again. Felt very light. I felt I couldve done maybe 13. It was slowing me down though. Still I havent hit 315 for more then 7 full reps in 4-5 years, pre injury. So it was good to hit.
Phera Plex doesnt seem to do anything for me really, but ill finish it. Well see.
