Today is the first day of my deload. I'm doing a few different exercises as well. Focusig on DBs for my presses. Hoping to get the shoulder back in the game.
DB Flat Bench
-20lbs x 8
-30lbs x 8
-37.5lbs x 8
-45lbs x 5
-50lbs 4x5
Just focused on "listening" to my shoulder and not pushing myself too hard. Keeping good tight form. Mind you I was keeping it pretty narrow at the bottom. Is this correct?
DB M Press
-22.5lbs x 8
-27.5lbs x5
-35lbs 4x5
-BB (45lbs) 2x10
I noticed with this that my left shoulder popped as it began to travel back up again. It happened every rep but only with DBs... not with BB.
HS Lat Pull Down
45s x 8
45s + 25s x 8
2 45s 3x8
SkullCrushers
bar (20lbs?) x 8
bar + 20lb x 8
bar + 40lbs x 5,6,7
My elbows and wrists didn't really like this one. Thats why the reps were kinda funky. To clarify I mean the one where you lay on your back and bring a bar down to your head and use your tris to extend our elbows back up. Some people have a different name for this I think.

Well I hope I was easy enough on the shoulder. I think I was but I'll know tomorrow. I'll keep ya posted.
