Crazy that happened with bamboo bar. Did you try to go to heavy?
Probably heavier than I should’ve gone. I had had shoulder surgery on that shoulder already and it had a history of subluxing and dislocating pre-op. Overall I have to be very careful with certain exercises as they related to my shoulder. The more dynamic the movement the more careful.
On another note, great first few days of programming for this cycle. Absolutely love it and see myself getting stronger and my engine capacity increasing.
Sorry to hear that dude. I hope we can continue to get you strong and get back to as close to where you were pre surgery.
Keep up the good work! Excited for what’s to come!
