    Very much with Clare mate

    We know it’s going to be hard and uncomfortable at times, but the point at which that is genuinely not sustainable, we need to look at the bigger picture, and if it’s 4 steps forward and 1 back so you can take another 4 forwards, that’s a good decision

    Yeah I like the split in this instance – one chest focussed one delt focussed , I think that’s an approach worth trying

    I think you’ve answered your own question mate. No point stretching to three sessions if some of those movements are weaker options

    Yes given that your three days are split up, I’m with Clare – lower/upper/full

    Are we saying that the movements have the load released? This would indicate that the machine doesn’t allow you to work through a complete range?

    Nothing wrong with it, but equally nothing wrong with switching in a seated variation

    If the movement is still progressing, you’ve every right to keep it, if it’s stalling, take a change of stimulus

    Be aggressive, attack your set, but don’t do anything possible to move the load from A to B

    Would normally be legs today but the more hammy focussed session, so I’m giving it one more week to make sure my ham is ready to roll
