Check out changing your diet a little to concentrate on anti-inflamatory foods. Taking Ibuprofen every day is not good for the morale.

I know Icehog has use Wobenzym besides me. Maybe he'll chime in?

Definitely helped with inflammation, unfortunately my shoulder problems have been diagnosed as structural and supplements can only help my issues fractionally.

I HATE legs. Front squats and regular squats, and walking lunges suck!

Chest day, that was fun! Finished off with some negatives, that was not fun.

Chest day here too....strength was not high, so I listened to my body and made it a rep day.

Chest for me too :) My bench weight has gone up by 20 pounds in three weeks after changing to a new rep scheme. Love it when that happens :wo

Had a late hockey game last night, and woke up tired and sore. Listened to my body ad took an unscheduled day off from the gym today. I am off tomorrow, so if I feel good I will double up the workout tomorrow.

I pretty much did double day today... Buddy of mine convinced me to do back. Did that. Staci got home from work and wanted to work out but didn't want to go alone so I said okay, did some more back and arms.

Did not feel like it today but decided to go anyway. Leg days = hate.

As I get older, every day at the gym seems to be a rep day:) Did chest yesterday.

Day off Tuesday really helped, had a great workout yesterday....legs, shoulders and bis.

Scheduled day off today, back day manana.

4 weeks into Pilates 2x a week and I can feel and see a difference in my Core! My instructor's abs are so thick, you'd think she had a padded shirt. Just amazing!

Tried 215 again on bench... it was like I was trying to lift a car... did not happen. I got back up to 205 once and that's about all I got. It's frustrating.

Did you lose momentum? Taking time off when trying to reach a max is not good. I thought you would've hit 225 by now.

Just finished legs and biceps a few hours ago. Came home to walk the dog and get the feeling I'm in for a little leg pain over the next few days. Back feels good, that is a huge plus :-)

Good on both counts, Jay! :tu

Got a great back workout today, stayed with 225 on bent over rows. Went from over 20 reps on the first set to barely able to get 12 by the last, dropping the rest every set. Then 4 plates and a quarter on T-bars for the same kind of reps. Low cable rows were enxt, followed by wide grip pullups, which were in sets of 8 because I was shot.

Chest workout tomorrow morning before I head to the MoB Herf, going to have to pack some protein for the afternoon. :r

That's all? 4 plates and a quarter on t-bar, weak. :)

Taking today off. Did chest yesterday but my hamstrings are still sore from doing lunges and stiff leg deads on Thursday.

That's rep day, Huy, I will do better on heavy day. :r

Chest today...all the benchs were occupied with school kids doing 30 seta each, so I mixed it up with weighted dips and a couple other crazy exercises. Legs tomorrow, yahoo. :r

Made into the gym today even though I wasn't feeling it. Started with 30 minutes of cardio and then shoulders.

Those can be the most important days, Jay, where you didn't feel like going....but still did. :tu

Chest day, 4 exercise. Tricep, 2 exercise. Quick hour workout (with 2 other buddies). 225lb BB 4x5, and that was not a rep day :r

Was actually very surprise how much my incline db has improved over the last couple months. 90-100lb db 8,8,6,5. Also, not a rep day.
