well on sunday i did my first dumbell pressing for shoulders in a few months... no pain - a little stiffness but to be expected i suppose!! got the 44kgs for 8 good easy reps. lets see how many weeks before i feel i can get the 50s without being in pain!! lol

bit of a funny week with work etc. so my eating will have to be a little all over the place so diet wont be too good..... i also like to munch while watching football.. and theres rather alot on the TV at the moment! lol

hopefully this should be my last week of using machines for chest pressing tonight.... ill see how my shoulder feels and if it feesl any better ill use dumbells next week!

cheers nick mate!! much appreciated!

although i should be good at this moderator thing... i used to design/create online learning materials and courses... would you believe theres actually research done and books written on the topic of e-moderation etc... and i had to read some of it to blab my way through meetings!! lol

the people that write them are very scary! theres a reason they dont go into the real world!

At work we have a learning centre with a book on "how to" absoloutley anything, unfortunatley this still hasn't helped my spelling much.

The detail you put into your posts is appreciated lee, and you still manage to take the pee a little bit which is good (and normally deserved where i am concerned)

Thats enough ar#se kissing for one day, back to ghana v brasil and my pack of tescos finest cookies

And what's wrong with the care bears. Do you know Tarantino wrote the scriptfor Resevoir Dogs and cast accordingly after watching unedited footage of the Care Bears. A true story

OK i read the whole thing, really interesting stuff !

I liked reading about your approach to calves, mine are truly awful and I'm going to adopt your volume method of training and try and get them up to scratch.

It does strike me that you do a very high volume, is this because you have found from experience that your body grows well with it? Or do you think most people are too scared to overtrain.

Do you train abdominals every session?

Keep this journal going, its great stuff.

Nick

thanks nick

ive found certain body parts respond much better to volume - shoulders and calves for one.. others such as biceps for me respond much better to what i personally consider lower volume work... but also respond mcuh better to frequent changes in routine... whereas shoulders and calves dont!

train abs once a week at the moment.. when dieting fro a show i like to train them every day - i feel this keeps them tighter and more defined!

trained arms this morning... decided to switch my workout around a bit and do some different exercises as my diet has been pants this week (practically lived on biscuits yesterday) so thought doing my normal session id prob struggle a little and be deflated.... did some close grip pressing with olympic bar for triceps... could feel my dodgy shoulder no pain as such... just very stiff... so if i do decide to switch back to dumbells for chest i may just go light and use some pre-exhaustion or something to take teh edge off it!
