Shoulders are back...
This will be short and sweet I suppose. Have some pretty great plans tomorrow so need to attempt to sleep. So anyway, Monday I felt I'd try adding shoulders back in to see how it felt. Went to 3 plates on each side of the shoulder press hammer strength thingy. I was able to do it for 3 sets of 6 pretty easily but it still made my left shoulder feel wonky. So, I'm thinking no overhead pressing of any kind. That kind of sucks because I've always felt I've got a lot of carryover from my ohp to my bench. But... to the good news of shoulders... followed that up with 3 sets of lateral raises for 3 sets of 10 with 35s, then seated dumbbell cleans for 3 sets of 10 with 35s. It's funny, I had practically forgotten about seated dumbbell cleans and how much I love them till I was putting together a program for a friend the other night. Was thinking to myself "What's some good shoulder exercises?" After going through a few in my head I was like "Damn, why haven't I done those in forever?" Glad I did. So anyway, figured that was enough testing of the shoulder and did some pretty simple biceps work. Machine preacher curls, 60 pounds 5 sets of 10, single arm preacher curls 30 for 4x8, then reverse grip barbell curls with my Fat Gripz, 3 sets of 8. Felt pretty good, been feeling good a lot lately, both physically and mentally. It's odd, and I'm not sure I completely understand it, but right now everything is groovy.
