Time heals.
Yeah, it's good to put a face/body to the posts I read. I agree you looked great at 255. I looked like the Michelin man at that weight. People kept throwing me fish & small seals to eat.
Do you have any vids of your squats?

[ILIEKFUDE]

nah, ill take some tho if i can get my pops to hold the cam steady. shakey hands, gettin old.
ill mount the thing somewhere if i have to. ill try n get a side n a back view next squat day. and then you'll hafta school me on where n how to post the things.
cool?

Wish i could help ya with the cam bub, but you know im usually working when your training. Wish i could see you workout more, so proud of you and get those elbows healthy i hate seeing you in pain!
mwah!

So heres what im gona switch to for a while with the goal of organizing things to keep my elbows healthy and to reduce some pressing volume.

mon: bench, tris, militaries
wed: squat-or-dead (one ME one DE), back, abs (probably a weighted situp or pulldown abs)
thurs: (rehab stuff) pressdowns, f.delts, cuffs
sat: (xtra work) hamstrings, quads, s.delts, abs (probably weightd oblique work etc)

This gives me plenty of rest between squat day wednesday until bench day the following monday. Thursday is a "by feel day" to rehab the elbows and f.delt/cuffs. Saturday im gona experiment with some added hamstring work perhaps pullthrus and maybe some leg press for the quads followed by hypertrophy work for the side delts and strength work again for the core (something different than the first core workout of the week). Ill probably stay away from curls entirely until my elbows feel ok and when/if they do, ill add them into saturdays workload in a lighter hypertrophy capacity.

So this monday i will be benching on short rest to get the order going. It will probably be something real easy/simple like 225 with comp grip for reps so i dont lose the feel, followed by some light close grip bb or board work for reps and seated db militaries. Then if all goes well the rest of the week will have me healthy enough to bench heavy the following monday and kick the routine into full gear.

Do shitloads of high rep (60+/set) pressdowns, til the lactic acid burns like a blow torch. It'll help a lot.

[ILIEKFUDE]

no doubt, been doin with bands once or twice a week and always as a warmup before bench.
they help alot and suprisingly i think they put some size on my tris over the years.

I forgot, and have been forgetting to do the high rep pressdowns that LJ told me to do, because my elbows havent bothered me for a bit.

But when they were hurting, and I started doing them on a regular basis, They felt much better.

So how exactly are you s'posed to do them? On their own, at the end of a workout, before a workout?

I do them at the end. They can be pretty tiring. I often cramp up after doing them. But there are many who do them as a warm up.

I tried to google some info on the relationship b/t lactic acid and tendon/ligament health, but I got a mess that's too deep to wade through, full of topics that contain all the key words and none of the intended topic
