Blessed be leg day on this the 4th day of the second cycle.
Oh lord of the gainz, thank you for showing me the whey. Honorable and wise are those who do not skip leg day, sinful and damned be those who do.
I replaced inclined bench, bench and declined bench with inclined, straight and declined chest pec deck and cable cross over without triggering the rotator cuff.
So I am getting the triceps no problem, rope, skull crushers, overhead, I can do overhead press and dips, I can do the pec deck, and cable machine, so I don't really need bench. My pecs are great anyway.
I'll revisit bench next cycle. There's also a small chance that it's arthritis because I have arthritis in my back and that was "cured" with core training, so there is still hope. However, if it's not bothering me and my muscles look ok then who cares that I don't do bench. I also still do pushups no problem so bah. I did actually do 50% bench weight ~90-100 lbs and had no issue, whatever. I'm not stressing it.
I also noticed my legs are looking more in shape which is nice but no one would ever see that since even my shorts go below the knee. My ex might see it soon, she's hinting at needing the D lately and I don't mind sharing. It's been a while with her. I'm not exactly going for anyone anymore so it's a nice occasional distraction. I don't simp for her though, she does things for me all the time. Just in case you're wondering, neither of us want to be bf/gf again nor move in again. She's also not getting any bc if she did I'd pass. Also don't worry Alice, condom 100%, not expired and it's only been a few times a year, so basically nothing. I never initiate it, I don't because I don't want her getting any ideas but if she's all up on my jock I'm not saying no.
[Ashley] We're okay with it as long as he doesn't start thinking he's getting back with her.
