    Looks decent enough op.

    The shoulder thing sounds genetic. Have you dislocated your shoulder in the past or anything at all?

    Looks decent op. Perhaps add some weighted ISO holds at the end of both sessions every other week to improve your pull up/chin up strength, may help build up the rep number and speed of reps.

    Nice quads ardee :)

    It might be worth going for a quick walk to get blood flow to the muscle and then getting on a foam roller or PVC pipe for 10-15 minutes to loosen up your IT band

    Try performing a 3 secs eccentric and concentric movement and leave a small gap between the bar and your chest before you push back up to help keep tension in the muscle.

    Why slow it down? A fast lift is a strong lift, just shows how strong he really is, doesn't it?

    A set of 5 rep deadlifts lasting of 2 seconds each is better than 5 reps lasting twice as long.

    Triceps are a prime mover in pushing movements, it's not that difficult to complicate.
