FINE GEEZ I'm on some endurance training right now for climbing but right now I do 6-9 reps of 225 on regular bench for 4 sets and then inc bench I do 3 sets of the same amount of reps sometimes I switch inc bench for inc flies.
so after heavy so-so sets (4) you still got power to push 3 more with the same amount of reps? incredible
Monster.
Incline is clavicular intensive exercise. Also, I'm working for endurance now not strength. However, I would like to hear what you would recommend.
Wouldn't exactly relay on my knowledge, as chest is my most lacking part. I'm having a tough time as it is, so not quite sure my advice due to different needs and evidence would fi yours. So, as to recommending, strength wise, I'm currently going with micro-loading every workout while using very low reps 1-5. The past few months, I barely touch the 5. I'm probably having a mild-stall-crisis situation, so my advice is as good as anyone elses here I would dare say.

Chest is not too useful climbing (unless you're crack climbing) so more mass on it would not be very beneficial for me at this time. What do you bench just out of curiosity?
I'd go with 190 so, up down, 180, 200, so 190
Not bad at all. I forgot your other stats (if i ever knew them) What's your weight, height, and age?
Monster as in monster compared to me. I can't even deadlift the 225 lbs and can barely even comprehend someone repping that with their chest. Didn't mean it as a bad thing, rather a compliment.
[QUOTE=Binsky;32827908]Not bad at all. I forgot your other stats (if i ever knew them) What's your weight, height, and age?[/QUOTE] 80kg I'd say, 80-81, no Sarcoplasmic hypertrophy recently sadly. 5'9, 1.80, almost 21 (age) Deadlift is approx 300 lbs, in reality it's lower, cus I'm getting form up to par as always. squat is 270, again, take off 20-30 lbs temporary to get form up to par. bench is obvious. I shoulder press with dumbbells, and they're at what, 42 kg I'd presume. Took off a few lbs to give myself some decent cns rest time. everything here are not maxes. I usually use submaximal weights. (mostly, would lie if I say all the time) anyways, I asked what you do for chest, because funny as it is, I have a smaller chest than I started with. I'm possibly stalling, so I'm trying my best to get past this annoying barrier.
I'm actually quite chuffed with my newfound stretch marks, they just go from the end of one of my traps, across my upper back, and end at my other trap.
It's not as appealing when you got white skin, but that's the least of my concerns. Enjoy your battlescars bitch. Highest dumbbell row around here is ? Binsky ?
bent over row (db or bb), cable row, standing row?
since a couple of weeks ago i think i've fucked up my shoulder... or my back. i can't tell i was doing cable row when i suddenly got a pain in what i would guess was my rear deltoid. the pain was similar to what i had once when i trapped a nerve in my neck only not as extreme and not constant. the pain would only come with certain rotations of the shoulder. it didn't seem intrinsically effected by cable row or by any movement of the arm - just the shoulder i thought it had cleared up and then i went to tkd training and it slowly started to ache more and more as the night went on. i skipped gym for a few days and decided it has healed. went and did back again a week later and the pain started again, only not as bad i've not had the pain since but i'll be doing back again in a couple of days and am a bit worried about it. i looked it up online and it sounded like a rotator cuff injury but then some mate of mine who seems to think he's a doctor was like "NO LAD YOU'D KNOW IF IT WAS THAT! FUCKIN ELL!" so now i don't know what to think
It does sound like a rotator cuff type injury. It may not be torn it could be sprained. I would see a physician about it. Rotator cuff tears are nasty and if you try to work it too hard too soon you will regret it
Well, maybe you didn't have a reasonable rest period, or you have actually fucked it up and should maybe go see a doctor...
You honestly would know if its a rotator cuff injury, just let it heal for a week, two weeks TOPS, then get back in with a lower weight.
Rotator cuff injuries are one of the most common weight-lifting injuries out there. Go see a doctor, and once it's sorted you'll have to start again with light exercises
[QUOTE=Septimas;32831681]You honestly would know if its a rotator cuff injury, just let it heal for a week, two weeks TOPS, then get back in with a lower weight.[/QUOTE] rotator cuff injuries are v common. I don't think it's a tear but it could definitely still be related to that cuff
[QUOTE=Binsky;32831748]rotator cuff injuries are v common. I don't think it's a tear but it could definitely still be related to that cuff[/QUOTE] My B, whenever i think rotator cuff i think tear because ive known people to do it.
[QUOTE=Binsky;32831203]bent over row (db or bb), cable row, standing row?[/QUOTE] Bent over rows, db.
idk what i do on DB my gym only goes to 120 and I can do those p easily.
[QUOTE=Septimas;32831797]My B, whenever i think rotator cuff i think tear because ive known people to do it.[/QUOTE] I've had some sort (guessing, as I couldn't self examine) of rotator cuff inflammation. Never mind the reasons, I just found the cause, changed it, added a few rotator cuff bullshit warmups before hand, made sure I warm up with the bar itself of course and it healed rather quickly. 3 weeks or so. Tried not so long ago to get back on regular bench pressing form, had a sharp pain, so I just said fuck this. The pain I had was like a pain in your teeth, can't be too sure it comes from there but it bugs the shit out of you [editline]17th October 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Binsky;32831858]idk what i do on DB my gym only goes to 120 and I can do those p easily.[/QUOTE] Loser, I pwnz you. strap dicks to db and tell me how big you can go
come at me
I had rotator cuff issues. I let my shoulder chill for two weeks and now I take a ten pound dumbbell and swing it around to stretch it out before hand and things have been fine since then. It is a pain in the ass when it happens though. Locked down pretty much anything I wanted to do on my upper body.
rotator cuff injuries are fucking terrible. one day i was being a dumbass and I tried to climb a rock wall, when I reached the top, i set down my left elbow to stabilize myself...then I slipped and my armpit got caught on the rock and i could feel my RC getting fucked up. i was in pain for 2 weeks. i probably should have gone doctor but w/e im fine now lol
Shit, speaking of rotator cuff I think I might have injured mines or somewhere else in the shoulder. I can't even unrack 65 pounds total on a barbell to do a bench because I feel a sharp pain in my right shoulder. I'm not sure if this is rotator cuff injury or not. I can also do overhead press without any pain.
