5:50am - HRV Elite info (based on 2.5 minute test) - Morning Readiness level was 6 (Sympathetic) with a score of 54, average heart rate was 57
Your Sympathetic activity appears abnormally elevated. Consider active recovery and / or the guided breathing reading to enhance recovery
5:55am - Body weight @ 171.2lbs / 77.655kgs
No training this morning as left elbow is in pain (even loading weights last night hurt) and right shoulder is playing up (that could have been caused when I fell over on Sunday night when I was pissed!!). Issue with elbow I will try and resolve with loading up on fish oils (has worked in the past) and I will go back to previous routine where I did the following without issue
Day 1 AM - Delts (Upright Rows and BB Face Pulls) and Abs
Day 1 PM - Front Squat, RDL and Standing Calf Raise
Day 2 AM - Flat Bench, Wide Grip Pull ups and Close Grip Bench
Day 2 PM - Pendlay Rows, Rear Shrugs and EZ Curls
All will be performed myo reps starting with Days 1 and 2 of each rep block doing 1 activation set and that is it, days 3 and 4 will be followed by a single myo reps set (15s will be +3, 12s will be +2 and 10s will be +2), Days 5 and 6 will be 2 myo reps sets, 7 and 8 will be 3 myo rep sets etc, will probably throw in 2 rest days towards the end of each fortnight block. If all of the myo reps are completed at the end of each block then I wil increase the load next time, if not will leave weight the same.
Note - Shrugs and Calf Raises will be a 25 rep activation set followed by 5 myo rep sets of 5 adding weight every fortnight if the 5 x 5 is completed that is.
I may even throw in the odd deadlift session but will see how it goes
