TS, your workout philosophy fluctuates, you started from going heavier than you could sustain over long period, whereby your form and muscle and mind connection suffers.
In btw, you flipfloping between going heavier and lighter without a clear progression.
Last I read, you going light with higher volume, I assumed you have improved your form and managed an injury free sustainable workout right now.
May I know your actual progress since the start of your thread and throw us some figures on your progress otherwise your journal is lacking facts.
What is your 2017 Vs current weight, Neck, shoulder, chest, biceps, hip, thighs measurements will give a good yardstick to the effectiveness of your workouts.
Btw, how much proteins you consume on a daily basis.
