Chest Day Lived Up To Its Name

     Everything went well tonight. It was a quick in and out tonight but weight was moved. Here's what got done:
••••••••••
INCLINED BENCH:
(80lb x6) 4x

DECLINED BENCH:
(100lb x6) 4x

FLAT BENCH:
(100lb x5) 3x

MACHINE CHEST FLY:
(75lb x10) 2x
75lb x8

CONVERGING CHEST PRESS:
(40lb x10) 3x
••••••••••
     I had a slight "wardrobe malfunction" so we ended up leaving after the chest presses. Let's just say that straps aren't just for lifting weights and when one comes loose, bad things can happen. Appropriate, I suppose, for chest day. We'll just leave that there. We skipped the ab work but I'm OK with that.
     I'd like to add in a bit of variation and/or volume to the bench (as well as the other major lifts) but I don't want to kill myself either. While I can't say that I'm bored with what we're doing, there are days that I come away feeling like I should be doing more. I told Frank that my chest isn't even sore or tired. My gods, after legs, I can barely walk. After bench, I really don't feel that bad. Oh well, all I can do is follow this routine. It said it was a 10 week program. We've been at it for roughly 4 weeks. 6 more weeks to go and then...well, I don't know what. Maybe I'll be beastly and ripped. More likely I'll be 10 weeks older, slightly less doughy and more just as sore. woo. 👍
