Awesome, where did the added K come from?

No idea. Organiser did state that the route was 11.2/11.3 km's.
Not often we get something for free.

Db flyes 22.5kg x8 x4 @2min

Shoulder press 65kg x8 x4 @2min

Side lat raise 20kg x8 x4 @2min
Bent forward db reverse flyes 17.5kg x8 x4 @2min

A rather frustrating workout today. Shoulder really was an issue. Had to drop the dumbbells at one stage and broke a collar. Had to switch to a barbell for incline presses. Still made reps on shoulder presses but no way I'm putting up at the moment.

[Mvcrash]

45 minutes HIIT spinning. Really loaded up the legs and pushed. Avg HR 132.

Takd a week or two off (I know you really don't want to)

Yeah.....Na. Did some research and think it is a rotor cuff impingement in the top of the shoulder cup. Found a stretch and that seemed to remove the pain temporarily. Did some rotor cuff exercises today and the left side is much weaker than the right. My left shoulder blade rotates up and over my shoulder when flexed and has made some imbalances obviously over time. At least I know and can work on it now.


Today's workout
Dead lift 170, 180, 190, 200 kg x 5 @2min
Standing bent over barbell rows 85 kg x8 x4 @2min
Bench bent over db rows 45 kg x8 x4 @2min
Close grip v handle pull down 60 kg x 8 x 4 @1min
Reverse dumbell wrist curls 10kg x 8 x 4 @ consecutive alternating
Dumbell wrist curls 20kg x8 x4 @ consecutive alternating

Made reps on barbell rows. Made slower full form reps on deads but lost grip on the very last rep. Very annoying as I thought I had it.

The weather in Cincinnati was really nice Saturday so I did a coffee run bike ride. 22 miles round trip.

I never thought one would be that .such stronger than the other , because we seem to always be carrieing bags or coxes that you would think would put even load on each shoulder if carried with both hands.

I think it has to do with the shoulder blade. Its almost as though the bottom isnt attached. I think the muscles around it have compensated for it but it is just at the point now where due to the heavy lifting it has become a problem. At least it gives me a chance to even everything out and you never know might help with the lifting as well
