 Today I woke up and felt completely healed so I excitedly headed off to the gym with Matty. This week is a shoulder focused workout and it was quite tough. As mentioned previously, we’ve changed our cadence to 3-3 rather than 2-4 and it seems to make the workouts much more difficult. This is all part of the Experiment of One. You try things and make adjustments according to what works best for you. As I worked out today I realized just how important it really is to me. I felt like I had been reunited with an old friend. It felt so good to feel the metal bar in my hands. I felt incredible doing the exercises. It relieved alot of stress and tension from my body today. I will leave you with some more thoughts about social networking and then I am going to call it a day. I’ve really started spending alot of time on Twitter and I enjoy it. It is so interesting to follow conversations that go on. It is awesome to share thoughts and get immediate feedback from other people. Be warned that it gets addictive in very short order. At the same time, you connect with some very amazing people. No matter what the topic, there is someone on Twitter who knows alot about it. You can follow me on Twitter by clicking on the Twitter icon at the bottom of this post. I’d also like to get in a plug about my new site that is currently under construction. I am offering a free eNewsletter to anyone who signs up at https://www.fitnessexpose.com as well as a free 5-part eCourse on the basics of getting into the best shape of your life. If you are a regular reader of this blog you are going to love the eNewsletter and the eCourse, so head on over to https://www.fitnessexpose.com and get signed up today! |

 Mike’s Workout Log: 
Matty’s Workout Log: We both missed on Monday, but we were back today with a vengeance. It is amazing how badly you fry your shoulders in this workout. I found a rather nice lateral raise machine in the gym and have been using that instead of dumbbells. My main reason is that Matty has trouble understanding how to do the correct form with dumbbells, but is able to manage quite nicely with the machine. It gives a good workout, that’s for sure. The upright row is a new movement for me. I have not done it in years. It really fatigues the shoulders. We also used the smith machine for our behind the neck press because our gym doesn’t have a proper station for doing behind the neck presses. I hate the smith machine for alot of reasons, but it works well for this purpose. The rest of the workout was intense as usual. Overall, a great workout after missing a day due to injury. |
