Notes - Elbows felt good today! I think I FINALLY figured it out. It was sleeping on that elbow too often. I must credit my wife's best friend who thought that might be it. So the next few nights I was cognitive of sleeping on my left side instead of my right, and what do you know the pain has lessened a ton.
Paul - thanks for the great site. I'm going to try your 9 week Raw Bench routine. Any changes or updates to it? Is this enough volume? I'm a 285 lb. bencher with long arms.
ReplyDeleteThanks - TR Settles
For guys with long arms the thing I do advise is to do a lot of pec work. Flyes, db bench press, and pec deck to work as the bench assistance stuff.
ReplyDeleteThanks Paul. I'll check back with you in 9 weeks and let you know what happens.
ReplyDeleteflyes wont help bench but will hurt alot..least they do with me
ReplyDeleteFor guys that are really tall with long arms, a lot of direct pec work helps.
