Chest Workout 3-15-23 (Wednesday)
Today I trained chest by doing my usual compound movements first followed by isolation movements. The key to my training is to hit my muscle groups from all angles in order to get a full muscle development. I have been having more elbow problems on my right elbow. It is an injury that has evolved,…

Shoulder Workout 3-6-23 (Monday)
Today I started the week off with a shoulder workout. Sometimes during my training splits, I take a period of time doing my shoulder workouts before doing my chest workouts. The reason is because I want to put more emphasis upon my shoulder development for a period of time. By doing shoulders before chest in…
