Max Bench Retest 145lbs

I've been in a fair amount of back/neck/had pain over the past few days and some other issues that I won't get into. All of it combined made working out less than desirable. That being said, I knew I should at least do something. I wasn't expecting much, but it turned OK anyhow. Here's what got done:

I'm slowly creeping back up to my old PR. I know I'll get there and I've come to grips with the fact that it will be slower going than it was in the past. Them's the breaks, kid.

I've been saying that I need to see the chiropractor for a long time now. I'm not sure I can put it off any longer. I'm in pain every day and it's getting old. I just hate going to see any kind of doctor because it always ends up leading to more things. I'll give it some more thought. 

Anyhow, it was a semi-productive night and for that, I'm thankful.
