Rebounding and Core

My shoulder feels like its about 95% back to normal. I don't want to push it until after I talk to physio tomorrow morning. Once they give me the all clear I'll hit the throttle again. Today is all about cardio and core.

Rebounding - 70 minutes.

Laying Leg Raises - 7 sets/20 reps.

Feeling great that I'm not injured. Inspired to hammer on to Tolstoi.

Injured... I think

As Saturday continued we went over to my parent's for dinner. My right shoulder started to bother me. By Sunday morning my shoulder was really in pain. I started icing and taking pain / anti-inflamitory meds. Sunday night I was in agony and couldn't sleep. Monday I went to the hospital where the doctor's diagnosis is a torn rotator cuff. He said to continue with the icing and meds to get the swelling down. Once that is achieved I can be properly diagnosed. Thursday I have an appointment with Physio. Today I went to work. This evening I decided to do some rebounding and light exercises.

Rebounding - 10 sets/5 minutes.

BW Squats - 10 sets/10 reps.

Once done my shoulder mobility seemed to improve.

Axle Press

Good news. Yesterday the organizer of Battle at the Border anounced that the Axle Clean and Press is lowered to 200lbs for my age group / weight class. Today's training inspired by the good news.

Alternate the following warm up.

Rebounding - 25 minutes.

Axle Press - 3 sets/6,8,10 reps/115lbs.

Axle Press - 165lbs/6 reps, 215lbs/1 rep, 215lbs/3 reps.

Being a Powerlifter my overhead press, especially with an axle, is not very good. On a flat bench or inclined this weight would be quite easy. 215lbs for a triple is a personal best for sure.

Squats

Not much training this week. Tuesday was spent going to the dentist in the morning then giving blood in the afternoon.

Wednesday was a road trip with my parents to Hecla and Gimli. 

Yesterday was spent shopping for a new matress for my father and for me and my wife. Today I drove to pick up a market place purchase. I plan on using it for Yoke work once it's clean.

This afternoon it's time for Squats.

Rebounding - 10 minutes warm up.

Squats - 2 sets/10,6 reps/135lbs, 225lbs/8 reps, 4 sets/6,4,3,3 reps/315lbs.

Split Squats - 2 sets/12 reps/BW.

Rebounding - 25 minutes.

Good training day. Squats are getting stronger. That means I'm getting Stronger.
