    Potentially a higher risk of injury plus I usually find more anterior delt with a wider grip which is something I never feel the need to chase.

    Push session. Felt really good today – everything feeling straightforward and moving well. Spent ages getting my shoulders mobilised so that I could get in a decent overhead position. Getting older sucks – I miss being able to just bowl into the gym and start lifting. Managed to up the band tension on the lockouts – brutal movement but I find it very beneficial for my overhead.

    Log press 163×1 143×5
    Incline Log Press 163×6
    Seated Swiss bar lockout (w bands) 100×3
    DB Lateral Raise 50 reps
    Tempo push ups 50 reps
    Alt arm cable Ext 50 reps

    I just do mine in the pan now.

    Rinse the rice then cover with water and it’s done in like 8-10mins on the stove. Need to give it a stir for the final couple of minutes.

    Rest day. Body felt proper fucked this morning. Got up and got my body moving with a walk then some mobility work. This is how I start every day now to help me recover and not feel like I’ve been run over by a bus twice. It was successful as I only feel like I’ve been run over by a bus once now.

    Finishing the day feeling much better than I started it. Pulls tomorrow with some deadlift ladder action.

    Lidl fat free Greek yogurt is decent especially if you’re going to be eating a lot of it.

    Rest day. Right calf is super tight today – think I tore it a little yesterday. Nothing major, seeing my physio tomorrow anyway so we’ll take a proper look at it then.

    Session at the TBJPxShed today. Awesome gym and the first time I’ve trained in there. I attended the open day earlier in the year but had to get down there for a session before the end of 2024. Pulled some decent numbers today working up to 400 for a semi decent pull. Kind of paused it above the knee which was weird.

    Deadlift 380×1 400×1 260×5 (ladder style straps)
    Hack squat 260×6
    SA DB Row 90×8
    SL Calf Raise 3×20

    Great advice rehab wise from JP.

    I would add don’t forget about training your non injured side. SA pressing movements with low volume. This will help maintain muscle mass in the non injured side, may help reduce atrophy of the injured side via a cross over effect and finally it will give you some strength data on SA movements for when you are ready to load the pec again allowing you to be sure you have returned it to full strength.

    It’s the OG of giant triceps IMO. Great movement.
