Week 6 Day 1 Shoulders with bacon power!

This workout was brought to you by the power of bacon hmm bacon. I'm confirmed registered in my next powerlifting meet in Feb 2018 and because I'm a older fart I have nobody in my weight class. I asked if I could slide down to the master 1 category but so far no answer. In the end it is always you against the weight anyways, winning something is just a bonus. Plus this will be my first full 3 lift meet since 1996 do the math! I just want to survive :).
This week the intensity goes down and I did not hit a PR on my DB shoulder press. I did try but I failed even with bacon power. The rest of the workout went excellent so it just took the bacon grease a little longer to work into my body.
For day 1 workouts I ditched the sling shot for bench press work and just did competition style bench press with at least a second pause on the chest for every rep. I increased my weight 5 lbs from last week and all the sets/reps I smoked the weight. I have been using my tens machine on my shoulder and upper back which is helping. Plus I moved my hands in which decreased the stress on my shoulders. I did not increase the volume for this bench workout, only on my day 3 which is my main bench day. Want to add some intensity to your chest workout, try a FULL range of motion and pausing on the chest. NO bro reps!!
The land mine one arm rows felt kick ass on my upper back. Full range of motion and I could really feel my upper back working, love these.
Did some more work on the smith machine doing seated front presses. Again recurring theme, full range of motion no bullshit reps. 
Finished off with one bicep and tricep exercise and then my friend the air dyne.
