Well, here I go again. Like the title says, I am trying to shape up a little before I start my comp diet in early August. It hasn't been a easy year- shoulder injury and knee surgery, which I still have to work around, I turned 40 and my body seems to be rebelling agaisnt me- seriously!! So I have missed a lot of gym time, and I am still not 100%, but there are ways around that.
So, my prep guy is looking after the diet, and a friend of mine on another board has helped me design a program. I started yesterday. My diet is spot on. I am eating a lot, but very clean.
For the first week on my new program, I am lifting in the 8-12 rep range to get a feel for it.
My little numbers are hardly impressive
and even worse for this day because of my shoulder. Incline and shoulder presses hurt!!
