Last night:
Haven't done a max on my bench since I've been back in the gym and for some reason I tried last night at 9pm while exhausted from Skiing and work. But, just wanted to see.
Bench Press: 1x8x135, 1x1x175, 1x1x185, On the 1x1x190 my shoulder crapped out on me and I couldn't finish the rep all the way and had to bail out on the lower rack. Dumb idea to try and max when I'm tired and no spotter. 1x8x135.
Incline DB: 4x8x45. Shoulder was hurting from the bench still.
Machine Chest Press (one arm isolation): 4x8
Decline DB: 4x6x55
Cable Fly's (cables set to the floor to focus on lower chest): 4x8
Machine Fly's: 4x10
Struggled the whole workout with my shoulder and did band stretches in between sets most of the night to try and alleviate some pain. Still was able to hit the chest pretty good even though not as heavy as I wanted to on a night I wanted to go heavy.

W9 D2:
Bench 3x6x195, 1x5x225, 1x3x245, 1x1x265, 1x1x275
My bench bro was in so we hit it hard. I didn’t plan on hitting previous 1rm today, but he was pushing on his so joined in.
Squat 3x5x265
Should have pushed more since it’s technically my squat day, but I was ok with this volume /intensity after the bench party.
Rope curls 3x10x80, 90, 100
Rope triceps 3x10x80, 90, 100
AB curls 2x10x75, 1x15x75
DB flies 3x10x50s
Reverse BB curls 3x10x40, 50, 60 2x5x60
I added these because my left elbow is hurting when doing curls with a supinated wrist, and I wanted to see if this variations made any difference. Meh.
Fun day today.

How is your preset stretch up on bench? I was having shoulder issues, partially related to lifting, and I changed my set up to include a really good shoulder stretch when I lay on the bench. That along with focus on death gripping the bar, and not flaring the elbows has really improved my shoulder health, and I use a very wide grip which can be harder on shoulders.
