I'm on deload week as well, which is probably a good idea, and what I needed, but I'd still rather be lifting. Went to the Blue Ash gym yesterday for the first time in a while. Forgot how nice the facility is, and how lame all the people are. They were playing Delilah. Not a single song about murdering people or being better everyone else in the world. I don't know how people work out to that.

I'm going pretty easy this week, so I really just went to screw around.
I supersetted pullups and 50 lbs DB presses, 10 of each.
Then I supersetted 135 bench and about 95 row, about 10 of each.
Then I did some pushups and dips.
My shoulder started hurting again, mostly because I was too lazy to warm it up first, as happens pretty much every time.

After that I spent about an hour and a half in the sauna, with the occasional contrast shower and hot tub. Stretching in the sauna and hot tub was actually pretty nice. Contrast showers are also pretty sweet.

I decided when I get a house I'm putting a sauna in, and it will be awesome.

Over the last few days I've been doing a bit of the club swinging which I really like, even if I don't look as good as Louie Simmons when I do it. If I kept up with that a bit better I'd imagine my shoulders wouldn't be so bad.

  2. I made my club. I used about a 2' long piece of 3/4" pipe with a flange screwed on one end (secured with JB weld so Clayton can't break it again). I put two random 3 lb standard plates on, and then a random clamp we had in the gym. I'll put a picture up in a minute.
