So the last two days of training have been super light. Almost non-existent. But for good reason. It seems PR Pull Ups + Benching my Opener + Driving 3 days in a row = A totally locked Left Shoulder Blade /Rhomboid. It also hasn't helped that my sleep has been sideways so i am not all that rested all of a sudden.
I have been beating the crap out of it with PVC Pipe, Lax ball, Rumble Roller and Peanut (2 x Lax balls taped together). But for some reason it just will not totally relax. The brutal regime will continue. It has to at this point, i started to get a headache this afternoon. The dull ache did start to radiate down my arm and up my neck but i am keeping it at bay for the most part. OK enough whining.
I have also done some light Pull Downs, and Shoulder retractions as well as Banded face Pulls with a Hold.
After poorly teaching The Girl how to do GHR's we did the upper back regime, As well as some 45 Deg back ext. I will watch some vids and come up with some cues for for her.

So one of the things i gotfrom Coach X was do Eccentric work on my ACL
yesterday and today
Leg Press- Single Leg Lowers
2 x 10 x 70 lbs (not counting the weight of the leg press sled because who cares? you can't remove it)
I use 2 legs to push the weight back up. Tonight was only the second night and i can already feel the muscle around my knee contracting harder. I am not going to get too crazy with these. 1-3 sets a day depending on soreness. Next week i will also start doing them on both legs. For now I am doing just the recovering leg till i get a feel for it.
The Glute work will continue tomorrow and i also will get a up to about 70 % on the Rowing action for a few sets. I really need to work this upper back issue out, only 9 days until the Toronto super show. Next week will be a total de-load, which translates to me probably doing A lot of swimming.
Up early tomorrow to do something actually worth reporting.
