HIGH-FREQUENCY BACK TRAINING WARNING

Training

Usually, Mondays are legs, this new protocol has legs on Friday. I was expecting to wake up sore as hell, I am not that bad today. I am however not ignorant so I have a feeling something bad is coming and going to hold off on initial thoughts until tomorrows back day comes. Currently, we are 2 days after the first workout. Having a minor left bicep irritation which I am thinking is coming from my shoulder. I will say, one of my new favorit shoulder movements is Incline front raises (facing out)

 

Coaching

So I mentioned in my last post how I have a tendency to resort back to powerlifting. Well, we are not even a week in and I botched it, lol. You will see on my incline pressing today that I went full powerlifter and wanted to lift more weight. I lost sight of the main goal at hand and had my first "L" of the training block. Used less shoulder than Id have liked and way more back and legs through leg drive.

Adjustments:
*Flare elbows out more
*No legs, possibly lift them up
*Leave Butt on bottom of the bench
