Back from the lake
So I got back last night from 5 days at the lake 
It was a nice break. Now it’s back to getting serious, and time to hit the weights hard. Unfortunately, I have been having rotator cuff issues. While I work on building those up, I’ve only been doing light chest to keep my chest from losing TOO much strength and size. My shoulders will be downplayed a bit also.
* I did chest today and it didn’t take long to get my right shoulder to start popping. I stopped working chest at that point and proceeded to work my rotators on both arms… This ranged from doing shoulder abduction and adduction exercises, to overhead shoulder rotating and also bench push ups. *I closed off with my usual ab routine*
**After my workout I talked with someone who also had problems with his rotator… Surprisingly, he told me that he started doing Pause presses when doing shoulder or chest presses and he said just to rest at the bottom of each rep before going back up for the concentric phase of the movement. He hasn’t had any issues since. I’m going to start trying to do this from now on, on every exercise… Wish me luck!
A side note, I started my pure rock hard muscle gainer diet today. I will be taking in roughly 4500-5000 calories a day with a goal of 345g of protein each day! It should be fun to see if this will get me to my goal of 230lbs @ 7% BF.
