I woke up this morning with a huge headache and a wicked case of cottonmouth. So I downed a bunch of Gatorade and water and went on my way. Trained about 83 people today and finally got around to my own training. To sum it up, I didn't feel like doing a damn thing. I did as any other meathead would and sucked it up and just did it.
Incline Press
190x5 for 3 sets Rippetoe Style
3 Board press
worked up to 255 for 2
I would have called this a PR, but everything I'm doing for upper body is a PR. Now that the shoulder is healthy enough I'm trying to build strength, but take it real slow.
Bent-Over Rows
155x10 for 4 sets
Triceps Overhead Rope Extension
5x10
Lat Pulldown w/ towel for grip
5x8
From weightlifting to Personal Training to the Highland Games to random jackassery, you can find it all here in a no-BS format.

Trying to be better.
Alright, so my updating skills blow dogs for quarters, but I'm gonna try to keep this thing going. Since last posting I've started adding gear to my lifting. No, that doesn't mean the prick in the leg type gear, but protective gear. I added a Spud Inc. Belt and a pair of Inzer knee wraps into my training. So far I've managed a 500lb squat and a 505 deadlift. As far as other training goes my right shoulder is so jacked up that I've switched over to a Rippetoe style of training to SLOWLY build the strength there. Started at 135 and I'll be moving up 2-5lbs each week. Bench feels better, but I've limited myself to dead stop benches 3 inches above my chest to help protect the shoulder
