Shoulder / Traps / Triceps

AM Weight: 255.4

I am training solo this week which for the style of training I am doing is a bit more of a challenge, I am depending on those last reps right now so on my own I am doing the best that I can. Brad Holt a good friend of mine is helping me out in the gym just being there for me and he has been a great asset to my training this year.

Seated Barbell Military Press (full sets including warm ups)
(working this movement back into rotation – I had not done it in a while so that is why I did a few extra warm up sets to get into the groove.)

95 x 8
135 x 8
185 x 5
225 x 5

45 x 9 with my hands in a neutral grip then turn my hands into pronated grip and did 8 partials

DB Shrugs (DB at my sides not in front of me, holding each rep at the top)

Barbell Shrug (Close grip maybe 6 inches between my hands)

***with my shrugs I honestly am trying to really drive in on my heals and let my body go really relaxed for lack of better term (not sloppy) but I am really trying to pull as hard as I can with my traps rather than a momentum shrug.
