FT Questions....

[thethinker48]

A little update on the shoulder issue. Been rehabbing aggressively, researching some BPC 157 (big Dave Smith style). Shoulder felt a lot better, especially from the break on it during the cruise.

Decided to go heavy again during today's first upper load session.

Tried incline smith; shoulder felt off, only did warmups.

Tried incline DB, shoulder felt off, only did warmups.

Tried flat DB bench: could only do 100s for 4 reps before realizing something's going to break.

Did 1 set of pec deck to failure. Felt like crying afterwards [emoji24][emoji22] (not from physical pain but from the pain of not being able to train as heavy). Talk about first world problems...

Anyway, I hate to bore you with this stuff. My question is, is it fine to load the chest with some high rep (15-20 rep) to failure work and logbook that instead of my normal heavy 6-8 rep loads because I think the tendonitis is still flaring with those loads?

I have gotten tremendous growth off loading the chest with heavy progressive training; feel real bad taking a step backwards with this shoulder business.

I really appreciate you on behalf of myself and others for taking the time to read through our nonsense and answer these questions.
