Forever Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Cheers guys! @David, your #4 is still the ultimate test for me. Once it closes in the PDA choker I'll go for harder goals with it. Thanks again for letting me work with it THAT long my friend. Yesterday a bench, abs and biceps session Bench: Several sets up to 13 x 80kg. Felt a better than the last time, shoulder isn't that much irritated any more. I'm working my back shoulders now from time to time and it seems to help. Biceps: Played a bit with the 60mm DB loaded to 25kg. Smart, to continue uping the goals with the #4 in a choker Keep going Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrankyBoy Posted September 26, 2010 Author Share Posted September 26, 2010 Thanks David! I have to take a couple of days off. Doing the fat bar curls put to much stress on my biceps tendons last tuesday. Ignoring the light pain I did grippers on thursday, just one set (4x#3.5) but gave up then due to lack of strength. That one set was too much, the next day I couldn't extend my arm any more. I did carry it all day long bent at 90 degress. Today, after LOTS of massage and heat therapy, I still feel it but its far better. Just a light pressure when its fully extended. I guess its an inflammation combined with a cramped up muscle.

FrankyBoy Posted September 28, 2010 Author Share Posted September 28, 2010 Bench up to 11 x 90kg, 14x80kg. Grippers right hand 10 x ez #3, very easy #3.5 (173#) x 7,5,5 hmmm, thats more than ok after I couldn't really move my right arm last friday. I still feel it but know how to treat it so I should be fine. + Stretching and massage therapy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, that #4 choker attempt is sick. Good work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankyBoy Posted September 29, 2010 Author Share Posted September 29, 2010 Matt, those are consecutive reps but for sure under parallel. If I had to guess I'd say somewhere between 1/2" and parallel. But I'll check during the next session, then I can answer it more precisely. Today: Fatbar 60mm DB 3x70kg Just one set to take care of my right forearm.

I can't do grippers on those days due to tendon overload. Latest results: Bench: 12 x 100kg EZ Curls: 9 x 50kg #3.5 x 5 R Hard RB210 x 5 L Yesterday an additional back and biceps workout.

FrankyBoy Posted November 25, 2010 Author Share Posted November 25, 2010 Thanks BigT. Grippers, right hand #3.5 x 3 Elite x 5 MM2 x 9 MM1 x 6 narrow Elite x 4 Sub average, still looking for a good schedule to do the grippers to avoid conflicts with the heavy biceps work. However, I did the first complete workout since weeks so thats fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
