really appreciate that
could be the weight gainer i guess, only been using it for about 2-3 days but i'm sipping it throughout the day. suppose it could fill my appetite

i've been doing a 1 on 2 off for the most part
but i didnt really do a light weight for the deload today

i'm going to florida to help a friend move over the weekend so that'll be two days off, i'll just have to try to eat enough clean food on a budget and re-do the deload monday

Q : should I still be trying to improve my EDT blocks on the deload? or keep it simple?

A. Two things...

1. De-load means de-load. Don't turn it into a workout/heavier session than it needs to be. I know it's tempting but see it for what it is... tee'ing you up for the big 1RM day!

2. Depends upon whether you feel the urge. I know that's an intuitive thing, but listen to your body. It will tell you what to do. And it will never, NEVER steer you wrong... :)

1RM DAY

went well

shoulder held me back on bench pressing
1RM was 175lbs
^did it flat instead of incline, shoulder didnt bother me until around this point(still didnt hurt just pops, feels like ligament popping out of place)

squat 1RM 240lbs
deadlift 1RM 240lbs

must have made some strength gains because 240lbs is all the weight I have to use
pretty stoked about that
about perfect because I dont think I could have done 2 reps



PLAN FOR CONTINUING :
Going to continue doing stretches and exercises for rotator cuff and shoulders, and will just sub flat bench for incline
unless something goes wrnog or shoulder continues to pop I'm not going to take time off because I'm feeling good as long as I dont use incline

For your shoulder, switching to incline from flat should help, less range of motion. If it's still popping you could try further limiting your range of motion... worse comes to worse switch to shoulder presses?
