I might bench tomorrow :lupe: Been doing dumbbells for a year now. I can do hundos on those for 6 reps for 3 sets. Hopefully I can rep out 245 :lupe:

Somehow I have lost all strength on the flat bench. Everything else is increasing upper and lower but that flat bench is damn near regressing.

BP progression never tends to be linear in comparison to the progression we see on all the other big lifts! Its weird & my BP strength fluctuates for worse on a fortnight basis..... :mindblown:


What was your physical state like (lack of sleep fatigue & lack of Kcal intake are the most likely culprits in most cases) prior to training that session? & when you say 'ALL' your strength you mean to tell me no set went well on the flat BP?

P.s: To bring up your horizontal pressing strength try stick with the MOHP/OHP, CGBP &/ or Weighted Dips!

Physical was the usual. I normally workout around 6:00am for an 1.5 hours. FB is usually my first exercise after warming up. I thought it may be I was doing it to early before my body was going. I moved it after a set oh MOHP and BOR. I could not rep twice safely and moved on the next movement.

I've been neglecting weighted dips, I should try to work those back in.

Hotel fitness room didn't have much to pull a leg workout together. Dialed up HIIT on the treadmill. 30 seconds at 9 and 2.0 incline with 1 minute at 5.5 rest for 10 cycles. Did some wall sits with a 40 DB for 30 ish seconds each, 5 sets. Ended with 30 second planks for 5 sets.

Nothing crazy but I only had one meal yesterday and 5 hours sleep :manny:

Traps still cooked from heavy shrugs yesterday.

good luck breh




going in for my shoulder jan 31 :to:

God speed :salute:

I gotta google that to even know what means

This is one thing I always tried to avoid. The chance of persistent discomfort after surgery isn't enticing.

I need second and third opinions plus a scan before I commit to fixing this. I don't have an apparent bulge, but the symptoms are there. Its a chance to just be a strained muscle, but it aint looking good breh. It ain't looking good :wow:
