About damn time. Deadlifts? Better be in that back routine...
Printable View
I'm noticing abit of that at the minute, but i've not really been the gym properly since before christmas so doing anything will keep me sore for a while!
but yea the plan was to work everything twice (3 times counting the 5x5 day) directly one day, then indirectly the other, and would hopefully mean i can do abit more for each, like my triceps wouldn't be fatigued from the chest exercises that day to do the tricep exercises (if it was a chest&tricep day) if that makes sense, like i've noticed in back and bicep days, i'm only able to say curl 12.5kg properly as my 3rd/4th exercise, when normally if done without the added fatigue i can do around 20kg
the plan is if i do them separately, i can lift more which would result in bigger strength/size!
still working on the routine, and it probably could do with a days rest inbetween each but my gym is only open monday to friday, and i work all day friday so times abit limited
Deadlifts are there too!
deadlifts, squats, proper barbell bench press the lot!!

Thought i'd post a quick update, Bench press is lower than previous due to doing it on a proper smith machine/barbell rather than a "chest press" machine, just can't seem to get anywhere near what i could on the machine! my heavy sets now were my warm ups on the machine!
Add in the fact i have a "muscle imbalance" on my shoulders (hence the shoulder problems, and skipping shoulder press) basically the ball of my shoulder is being pulled forward out of the socket by the stronger front muscles, and not pulled where it should be (in the joint) by the back shoulder muscles so trying to do abit of physio to fix that
so some days when them muscles arn't sore i can bench alot more and go all the way down properly and do a full shoulder workout, some days i can barely lift my arm up! not fun.
Still getting use to the squats, trying to get past the kind of cramping in 1 leg
But smashed the deadlifts out today!

I had work at 4am day after, and couldn't be doing with the doms! i spend all day bending, lifting etc not fun when you have soreness from deadlifts
And yea some of that's because their newish exercises so hadn't been done back when i was stronger, and some to do with actually having a mate going the gym with me so ive got a helpful spotter rather than just risking to kill myself! hah
feeling some serious DOMS at the minute! the only bad thing about weightlifting! struggle to move the day after!
