Back in the gym….
The week off was great I felt refreshed after the week was over. When I got back in the gym It did feel a little awkward. I felt like I had lost my balance and strength. Never the less I continued training like I had never taken any time off from the gym. After I got through that week I was golden again. I was feeling so good I started to max out the weight again.
I changed my diet up changed my work outs and could see the size coming on. I was like damn I’m looking good until. You may have already guessed, I hurt my shoulder the other night, the other shoulder this time. It was stupid really I felt so good that I was showing off, did 2 sets of pull ups 20 reps each thinking I was hot stuff. Yeah thats what did it, 2 days later shoulder was killing me.
The shoulder only hurts when I turn my arm a certain way so I just keep the arms in close to me and do what I can. I would take some time off so it could heal but my other shoulder still hurts. So I figured it’s just something I have to get used to. Tonight I did chest and I was able to finish all my sets with every last rep to failure. Call me crazy but I can’t give up now, I’ve come to far to throw the tale in now.

Be careful. Shoulders are a lot more delicate then most people think. That "I keep my arms close to me" says possible roter cuff issue. Lots of information on that on bb.com and the internet. I know you are not going to like what you hear but you should check it out.
