Help Unplanned cruise ?

Are the exercises you're using causing pain, during or after, that are obviously due to the training?...

Are you making gains elsewhere in size and strength?...

The curumin should have a noticeable anti-inflammatory / analgesic effect, but if you're using it to mask the pain, you're not doing yourself any good.

Plus, even if you're taking in a "tonne" of it, it may not be the right kind or amount.

As an aside, I get the feeling you might just want to rant a bit about your struggles, which is fine. IN that case, I'll bow out generally.

If you want to get to the bottom of these kinds of issues, attention to detail, such as responding to each of my suggestions and providing details of your diet (When I bring it up) and supplementation (when you mention it) is helpful. (Not in the business of pulling teeth. )

With the upright rows its throughout so I avoid at all costs now. No pain on any other exercises really however joints get beaten up fast if I do a lot of BB overhead work.

Tbh I've just come back from a holiday which resulted in me losing a lot of strength and size so its difficult to tell. I am most likely if at all just returning to that pre holiday level.

Re curcumin - I am taking 800mg 2-3 times a day.

I am not one to rant in all honesty however it may seem like that's the case.

How would one "fix" there diet as such, inflammation wise?

Diet is as follows, any input would be greatly appreciated:

Training day, training PM, all carbs around workout perimeter with the focus being post workout. Approx: 2800 kcals - 295g Pro, 260g Carb, 60g Fat

Meal 2: 200g chicken, 100g green beans, 2g eskimo 3 fish oil
