Hey mate,


Nah coz I'm only hitting them once every 7 days I want to really sink my teeth in to them. When I change to a 2 time per week I decrease the volume and up the intercity. I have a slight case if tendernites In my right elbow but as long as I do shrugs and forearm work it keeps it at bay. I usually shrug every nite with 20 kg dumbells at home it Keeps my elbows Feeling strong dint ask me why, Before that I never did trap work as I am very trap dominant my traps get a pump from using a knife and fork. I also avoid elbow destroyers like close grip bench for this I use palms facing in dumbells, it really smashes them with our the wrist pain, I also avoid those pussy bench dips. My joints are in okay condition coz I switch to phases of isolation only excercise for 6 week deload periods inspired by frank zane.
