Will be using the landmine for most chest/shoulder workouts in the near future. Had really good session and didn’t have any clavicle or shoulder issues while using it. Will also be incorporating single arm DB floor press. Rather than be sad that I won’t be doing much free weight compound exercises for the next little bit, i’m actually excited to try all the new exercises which are supposedly better for someone in my current state. Hopefully i’ll see some new muscle growth with them as well.

Pressing movements really irritated my SC joint this workout. Landmine shoulder accessories felt great however. On subsequent chest/shoulder days I plan to perform all my delt/chest accessories first and limit my horizontal/vertical pressing to 1 exercise per session with 4-5 sets of 6-15 reps. Will probably resort to light DB shoulder/Arnold presses, the machines don’t seem to be helping much. This plan however depends on what the sports physician will say tomorrow. Hope he has a solution other than to stop working out.
