Counting my macros for 8 days and Crossfit in the afternoon for about 2 weeks now, still lifting heavy in the morning.

Haven’t stepped on the scale recently, but I’m definitely leaning down. Loving it

Corbin, do you go to a local Crossfit?

There are a ton of them down here in my area. The gf and I ended up setting up a garage gym and use the street parking/wodify app for for our dailys WODs.

Mine looked similar, but the collar bone stuck up another 1” or so as mine completely detached.

Evan is correct a sling shot will help force you into a good pressing position.

Have you had a doctor look at it to make sure it’s ok to do pressing exercises?

Yea, it's completely separated and because I am a mechanic for work. I'd rather not get surgery, so o went to a specialist and he said unless it bothers me just leave it but work out properly and you'll be good for life! So I am leaving it.

Im still at it. Switched my program over to volume. Starting to put some size on now. Havent gone over 225 on squats or 315 on DL in 2 months. Totally stopped bench press forever. I feel fantastic. Did 225x5 on squats with way more left in the tank. BW is creeping up slowly too.




Youre creeping into bar bending territory!

Yes local, I have no motivation at home for cardio based anything.

Plus there’s eye candy and competitive atmosphere

Ya I struggled with the snatch, 205 iirc was my best. I didn’t have any coaching just YouTube.

I bench to much now so my shoulder mobility has gotten away from me a bit. I’m sure with some work I could get it back.

Keep us posted on your oly progress, it’s always been a favorite of mine.
