wait.... wut ? so y rnt u posting weights ?

usually theyre not worth posting, its all relative. sets/reps shows the train more effectivly.

il post them when theyre big boy weights. same reason i dont deadlift on the platform bro! :grin:

Hows the sides brah?

nipps are sweet again, i will never touch bromo again, but i got me some caber, so ive popped that. have been fiddling with dosage, sides shouldnt be an issue now..

Military Chins, what ware they? Wide-ish over hand grip? I thought all chins were done like this, at least it's how I've always done them.

ppl bitch and moan and plead their case when it commes to chins and pullups, but for reference, this is how i see it.

pullups - palms away from you, wideish grip

chinups - palms toward, shoulder widthgrip

military chins - palms facing eachother, shoulderwidth or narrower grip.

note - you can improvise militarys with a row attachment slung over a bar..

Good classification but unfortunately there's no 'world standard' terminology for them - i.e in the military an exercise which involves hanging from a bar by your hands (palms facing away) and raising your body weight with your arms is always called a chin or chin up....... At least they were. And you're right ppl do bitch and moan and unless your palms are facing away you're on easy street ;)

Has your doc suggested Cortisone inj...this can give some relief, depending on the site of the tendonitis??

yep, she said if physio doesnt work a steroid injection can help - cortisone. lol! i just gave her the 'cat face' and said some shit like "oh steroids?? sounds serious, thatd be a last resort!" :pfft: :pfft: im an egg.....

todays train was raisins/gut (delts/core)

simple but brutal delt train. im really enjoying being able to train delts properly, as my shoulder seems to be holding up well.

warmup - 20mins light cardio waiting for t.p

smith btn press 8 sets, first 4 20 rep warmup sets, top set 50kx4+2sp

superset alt db frnt raise/alt db side raise(4 supersets,8 total)

planks 3 x1min

woodchoppers 3 sets aside 15-20 reps

situps 2 sets to finish....

am gonna change split again very soon, to add in cardio, and make it so im not working tris the day before delts..

Free steriods from doc can't be too bad! I've had cortisone injections before I didn't realise what they were! LOL

yea, im hoping a bit more rest and some phsysio will sort it. steroids are a prescription medicine, and as such are dispensed only with a doctors approval, where necessary. :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:
