lol pickle...thanks for the comments guys
chesticles - thanks bro...its a bit hard to describe how wide the grip is. If you can imagine just letting your hands grip the bar at shoulder width and then moving your hands about 15-20 cm wider then that's how wide
anyway today i had a chat with one of the trainers and she confirmed i most likely have tendonosis... this means soft tissue damage that can potentially take a looong time to get better and the only remedy is to just work around it and to do what BigBen's already recommended... Monday Chest
Incline Bench Press: 20kg x 15, 40kg x 12, 60kg x 10, 70kg x 10, 80kg x 6, 70kg x 6, 60kg x 6 then 6 reps at max-force point (partials from the bottom)
Flat DB Press: 30kg x 8, 30kg x 6, 30kg x 6: last rep did TUT for 4 seconds
Incline DB Flye: 12.5kg x 12, 15kg x 12, 17.5kg x 10: 4-5 second negatives
Low Cable Crossover: 72lbs x 8 - for 3 sets: 60 sec rest between sets Biceps
BB Curl: 20kg x 15, 30kg x 10, 35kg x 8, 40kg x 6
Incline DB Curl: 12.5kg x 10, 15kg x 8, 15kg x 7
DB Hammer Curl: 10kg x 10: didn't have time to do more since i chatted with the trainer for too long
Time: 80mins
Result: Had a real good chest session, a mix between max-force point reps, TUT, negatives and short rest period really worked well... also my bicep strength seems to be back on track in spite of the tendonosis
