Mixed in a few partial range of motion chin ups between LM sets. Didn’t hang all the way at the bottom to prevent too much extension on the shoulder. Basically dead stop reps.

Also did a little single leg rehab work.

Had to split it up today. So after work:

Two Handed Landmine Press

3 x 5 x 95
1 x 10 x 95

Did a combination of Hex Press and regular DB Press with little to no rest keeping the DB’s in the lockout position between 3 sets of 10.

Three sets of Cable Triceps Extensions.

I’m going to begin using a heavier day once per week on my Pendlay Rows and a lighter with a more controlled eccentric portion of the lift once per week. Today, on the latter, I used a soft touch down at the end of each rep as a guide point.

Trying to continue to address some tendonitis in my left knee. It’s better than it was. Still a bit of an issue.

I’m typically doing three days of the Landmine Press per week. This coming training week, I need to begin using some type of periodization for that lift. Haven’t decided exactly how I’m going to go about it yet.

Wanting more time to do some exercises to avoid strength imbalances, primarily in lower body, that contribute to aches and pains. Been doing three days per week. Been running a program with some modifications for upper body given the AC Osteoarthritis in my shoulder. Gonna keep on that but I’m thinking about spacing it out over four days into an Upper/Lower split so I can spend more time doing additional exercises on lower days to keep myself a little healthier. The prescribed exercises and rep schemes on squats and deadlifts will remain as written.
