LB high football team was in taking up half equipment today... couldn’t get anywhere near the racks. I think they were doing some sort of clinic or something
Anyway, I was going to make a post about this but i might as well just ask here... Since I don’t do the Push/pull split, and I don’t want to do squats and deads on the same day... does it matter which one i decide to toss onto the chest day?

Nice benching bro.
I'm not sure what your schedule looks like, but you might consider adding in shoulders another day during the week. Your shoulders look weak compared to the weight you are pressing. I would imagine if your shoulders come up to par, your bench will soar.

I've just for the last few weeks actually started to give my shoulders serious attention. I've always had big shoudlers so i just assumed they were strong... but now im finding that size doesnt really mean sh1t.
Right now im doing the "DC training routine" Workout routines.. Post them here! Quoted from DC post: "Day one would be Monday and would be: Chest shoulders triceps back width back thickness *I am doing back on Leg/bicep day now, it was jut taking me to long to get through this session. Day two would be Wednesday and would be biceps forearms calves hams quads *added back to this day* Day three would be Friday and would be the same as day one but with different exercises chest shoulders triceps back width back thickness (sat+sun off) Day four would be the following Monday and would be the same as day two but with different exercises" I know this isnt the best split, but it worked perfectly with my Work/school schdule so i've been givng it a go. What about switching Shoulders and Back, so that Im doing Shoulders on Leg/bicep day? Im guessing all of the pressing im doing before shoudlers is gassing them.

DC is very advanced and quite frankly kicks ass. You need to do a ton of research on it to follow everything correctly. It isn't just a different "schedule" as you seem to elude to above - the entire methodology is different bro.

no, just borrowed the split that he recommends in the article, i just said "DC" for reference. A true DC routine would be fun to try but way out of my league atm.
When school lets out in December ill move to something like 2 on 2 off, but for now i have really been enjoying these workouts and I seem to be making ok progress. Anyway... like i said ill toss shoulders onto my leg/bicep day and get the weight up. I'm excited to see what my bench could look like if i get some more meat onto them shoulders. As always... thanks for the wisdom J

10/23 First 0 carb day.
Breakfast 8:00 2 Scoops Whey in water Couple bites of Chicken breast Have basically been alternating between Grilled chicken breast, and sliced steak all day with a hand full of almonds tossed in here and there. Felt pretty good through school today, but now that im just sitting on my @ss at work im starting to get sort of woozy. Id love to destroy a loaf of sourdough right about now! However im sure i haven’t been eating enough because I’ve only made it through 1 8oz chicken breast and about 6oz of steak and its 5pm already. Anyway... I'm interested to see how i feel in the morning before i lift. It will be nice to have a proper breakfast tomorrow also.
