    You are killing it bud. Those deadlifts and leg presses are incredible, and the CGBP is pretty amazing too esp. for someone with a bad shoulder.

    Thanks Eric! Since I'm not doing squats in my Feb comp (doing Push/Pull), I'm turning up the bench and deads. haha As long as I keep to close grip training, my shoulder is fine. I'll load up on anti-I's a week before the comp and I'll be able to widen my grip and press about 50lbs more....hopefully. haha

    I love the progression on the close grip benching!
    6 sets of 245 x 6 >>> 265 x 5 >>> 280 x 4 >>> 300 x 3, and then
    255 x 6 all 2 days apart.
    Is that your own programme or is that a designer schedule?
    Awesome strength and stamina to do that HNH
    How is the shoulder holding up with the pressing?

    It's a Smolov Jr program that you can use for anything. It does require benching 4 times per week, but since I'm only doing push/pull at my next comp, I figured it wouldn't hurt to get in some more bench work. My shoulder is doing fine with the close grip benching. I'll use my normal grip width at the comp though. I have to say that I'm trying right now to do a small leg workout and my knees are just aching so badly that it might not be possible. I have a Dr appt next Wednesday though to have them looked at. Something is just wrong. It's depressing!!

    Yeah, the shoulder is hanging in there thanks to some of your recommendations!

    I'm probably just gonna have him give some shots and be done with it. I think it's from overuse and it got really bad when I switched over to sumo deadlifts. I've since went back to conventional!

    Thanks buddy!! I was working on different hand and feet spacing during that workout. I feel I have a little more power when my feet and hands are further apart, but it increases the distance I have to lift the weight. LOL Looking forward to my Dr appt on Wednesday. I know you're against cortisone shots, but I'm needing something to get me through this increasing pain.

    Those are some freaking strong sets of CGBP. Lots of volume there too. How close do you space your hands when you do them? I keep mine about 2" between my thumbs when they are extended toward each other and once I reach working weight it puts alot of stress on my wrists, couldn't imagine it with 300 pounds on there.

    I usually put my thumbs on the smooth part of the bar. I couldn't space my hands nearly as close as you do even with wrists straps. LOL I used to try and have them very close together, but after awhile, my wrists started bothering me. If you check out one of my floor press vids a page back or so, you'll see how narrow my grip is and that's the same grip I use for regular close grip benches.

    I see, it looks close to shoulder width. I will widen my grip next tricep session, I was thinking last night that it must be too narrow with the way it was stressing my wrists. Thanks for the help.

    Yeah, I think your wrists will thank you when you go a little wider. Mine did!!

    Vid- You made it look like that bar weighed like a feather!

    Awesome work being done, I see you like to play around with what weight you do each session on each routine. Knees must have been feeling good then since you whacked on 720lbs on the Leg Press

    Admiring the box squat work too!

    Thanks Eric! I'm just doing push/pull but I'm hoping for a 380 bench and 617 deadlift. LOL

    Haha!! It's funny because when I'm watching my vids, it LOOKS easy, but it ISN'T while I'm doing it!

    My weights fluctuate due to the program I'm doing at the time. I'm doing programs for both bench and deadlifts right now and they have me switching weights every workout. it's actually kind of cool.

    The knees are doing a little better. I had them x-rayed last week from 3 different angles. Everything looked really good except the enormous amount of arthritis under and surrounding my kneecaps. That is the sole cause of my pain, but the good news is that it's fixable. Apparently, I have tracking issues with my patella which is fairly common I was told. I have to strengthen the vastus medialis to help with pulling the kneecap back in the correct groove. Unfortunately, it's been grinding on the tibia for so long that it's given me premature arthritis. But, there is hope!!

    While you're working your VMO, you might also look at "Breg PTO" knee braces. They are the best patella stabilizer on the market and don't cost all that much. GL big man.
