Sorry to hear the right shoulder is still giving you fits, but that’s one meaty arm up there. Nice forearm development. I’ve noticed that before on you.
8 reps each, 1 minute rest between sets, Made 4 sets. That REALLY hurt. Especially the last set.
The vein over the biceps was noticeable when I finished. That’s the first time I ever remember seeing it raised.

^ This is why it is cool to have kids, you always have someone to take to the movies and you get to go see the movies that both little girls and boys want to watch. Not that The Green Lantern is for kids but not a lot of adult women want to see the fun movies.
Also a little jealous of the almost 2 plates on your squat, I’m just a little over the 25lbs plates.

Well, it’s easier getting a movie date with the kids then some unknown lady at the bar…
As for squats, look at it as function of your body weight. I weigh 182-185 consistently, so my current goal is get to where I can do 275 lbs, 1.5 times my body weight, in good form.
The article by Rippletoe on squats was a big help to me.

Evening - Hockey Camp, 75 minutes
Made Day 2 of the low budget Velocity Diet. Used Gatorade Recovery as a Surge replacement.
Had a light beer with the guys after hockey. Piece of baked chicken breast before bed.
Weighed in at 184 lbs on the Beam Scale at work after chest workout.
8 reps each, 1 minute rest between sets, Made 5 sets. OUCH.
Tried 35 lbs for the first set on Kickback and Hammers, that did not go well on the Hammers, dropped to 30 lbs.
Last set, had a guy just step in and start using the Triceps Cable pull down. No asking if I was done.
He went around after I asked to jump back in and screwed around where I had the rope curl set up on the low cable. Go figure…
