25 Minutes of Stretching

Comments: Left shoulder was a tad achey. Managed to do all of my dynamic warm-up (cut wide stance squats high and didn't swing left leg as vigorously as the right). Still healing. Some sets were crisp while others were a bit out of my groove when it came to benching. I wasn't feeling it going into overhead with dumbbells. While the first set wasn't tough, I didn't feel all powerful. But the weights kept going up. My original plan was to start lighter but I realized that doing so wouldn't allow me to make an extra set if I wanted to since after 110lbs it's 120lbs and nothing in between. I also didn't want to bust out using the plateloadable dumbbell yet as it's tougher to hand to me (still relying on someone else to hand them to me on the left side due to hamstring). Made a big PR hitting 100's and 110's for three reps. Might have been good for five reps. Tried 120's since they were there. I got them off my shoulders a bit but wasn't close. Moved on to dips. I had a rough start but got going fine. On the third set, I didn't count the first rep as I cut it way too high. Not sure why I did that. Finished up with my rear delt stuff. Should be moving up in weight on these soon. Nice bit of stretching.
