Warm-up
Interleaved the exercises here
With alternating sets of jump rope and prowler walks/runs/sprints. Next time I think I’ll do two exercises in between such actions.
Tried Dips as a main movement. Got up to 30kg before the pain started to residualise (that’s a weird verb) inbetween sets and then I stopped. I’m fine with pain, but pain that gets progressively worse isn’t what I’m after. Had heavier sets in me no doubt. I seem to favour my left which is my problem-free shoulder
Did notice that it feels better than benching, so I’ll expect that as I resolve my issues I could use Dips as a main movement before benching.
Did push press to a top set of 3 @ 60. Didn’t have my belt and my core is the failing bit.
Then I repurposed
I did Dips on odd sets and push-ups on even sets. I learned that elevating my feet was a sure-fire way to trigger my shoulder which I’ll remember for my physio appointment and did the remaining push-ups on parallette bars with chains. For abs I did rope walkouts which were tough as hell. BPAs on odd sets and band face pulls on even sets.
Merry Christmas everyone!
Oh, yeah, going to see next horizontal pressing session if I can do weighted parallette push-ups. I have a weight vest. Guessing with that and a backpack with weights I should find a weight at which I can’t get more than three reps.
