I determined my reps in the deload week by using approximately 60% of the total reps used before (75). I added Friday's work to Saturday's warm-up because I was too lazy to do it on Friday. It worked out ok. I did no bar work. I did not benchpress at all as my left shoulder was/ is killing me. The best it has felt was after Saturday's training. I guess all the blood going to the area helped. Pull-ups/ chin-ups also hurt it as well as aggravate some sort of lat problem I got going on on my left side. That's why I subbed the pulldowns for the pull-ups.

Headed south,
