By now you have all realized this is a lot of volume. If you don't prepare your body for the volume it will wreck you. The shoulder girdle is the most mobile muscle, ligament, and bone complex in your body. It's mobility allows you to do incredible feats of athleticism. It also makes this joint prone to strain, tendinitis, and injury in general. Check out the Shoulder Warm Up page.
And now a PSA from our good friend and shoulder recoverist (made up word), Kelsey Duncan:
I wanted to take a moment to share my current situation. I have had some shoulder pain that has occasionally crept up on me for the past 2 years. It keeps me from doing some press movements but has always been somewhat manageable.
I have been using the new Crossover Symmetry system everyday that I am at the gym, as well as making sure I am going through most or all of the shoulder warm up exercises listed on the blog. My should pain is almost completely gone and I am feeling stronger with my dip strength.
If you guys have not checked these things out, please ask a trainer to show you how to use them. They are a useful tool that are available to EVERYONE! Let’s get our money's worth on them!
Love,
KD
