I'm surprised at that OHP though. It's still impressive - I've only ever seen two or three guys put up more than a plate, but with your bench and core strength I thought it would be higher. Is it not a lift you've spent much time on, or is it just something that's personally challenging to you, or what? | ||

Did 50x10 -> 55x9 -> 55x8 and on that last rep I felt a small jolt of pain at the base of my neck on the left-ish side, extending halfway up my neck. I've probably never pushed out a rep that hard on that exercise before. My form was perfectly normal and I've never had anything like that happen before. Immediately after I got up my neck felt stiff and pained me every time I twisted or move it more than an inch. I told myself that I'd go in to the clinic today if it didn't feel better after a night's rest and it feels more or less the same, maybe a tiny bit better, but not by much. So I think I'm gonna go in this afternoon and see what they say. It feels reminiscent of when I spontaneously had a muscle spasm in my neck which was easily the most painful thing I've ever experienced. Doesn't quite as much as that, but a similar area and type of pain. Anyone gotten something like that before? + Show Spoiler + I didn't bother posting in the injuries thread because I'm going in to the clinic anyways and just wanted some general thoughts To followup on this, I felt a lot better yesterday afternoon before heading into town and didn't end up going to the clinic. Took a couple ibuprofen as well and the pain felt 80%+ gone. Woke up today and it's damn near 100% gone. Went to the gym and no problems at all. Hurray! | ||

I used to be bad at overhead press and beyond atrocious at PBN (I had to start with the bar, 30kg hurt my shoulders too much) prolly because I used to bench only until I hit 133kg, because of my technique it doesn't hit shoulders that much; they always hurt though because they were weak, now that I've progressed (abit) this doesn't happen anymore, 75kg was my 1RM. Also, holy shit | ||

Then I fell down the stairs walking out of the gym. Seriously who builds a weight room on a second floor? | ||

After that it looks grim - Mon-Fri grind work in Greece with 0 free time only to arrive home dead tired Friday night. Hope I can get at least one good workout in on the weekend. | ||

Vacation starting tomorrow, the next two weeks will be spent eating a lot, flying all day and gym after lunch in between. Not expecting to break any PRs but it would be nice if I can maintain most over the vacation.

Didn't you fuck your leg up by paragliding? You bettah be caaarefuuul! | ||

The long and short of it is that you should talk to a doctor. | ||

It is very likely nothing but odd sensations of cold/tingling can indicate a variety of nerve issues. The fact that it involves the pinky would lead me to believe that your ulnar nerve might be trapped or irritated somewhere along your arm. Take a rolling pin or something similar to your arm and see if you can't trigger the sensations that way. The long and short of it is that you should talk to a doctor. Ok yeah this crossed my mind. I used to have some bad wrist pain that cleared up with some nerve gliding like 2 years ago. I'll ask my doc about it. I should add it's not a cold sensation, the outside of my pinky fingers are literally colder. | ||

![[image loading]](http://sd.keepcalm-o-matic.co.uk/i/if-you-keep-calm-you-ll-never-be-a-super-saiyan-54.png) Immediately thought of GoTunk. This was my "goal" weekend. Made some significant progress, but since I can't ever make up my mind I didn't hit 200 lbs, and I didn't hit my lift goals. Still pretty happy with where I am, stayed around the same weight (192, give or take 4 lbs for water) but got a bit leaner. Added weight to every lift, though not as much as I wanted. I think I'm going to wait until the 6 month mark when everyone else is posting progress pics to put them up, especially since my phone doesn't currently have an SD card, so it can't take pics. I should be able to hit the numbers I had for now by June. 6 months instead of 4 - not a big deal in the long term imo. I knew they were a reach when I wrote them. | ||
