Comments: Pressing day comes again, second week of short-sheeting the week. Again, incline was not feeling so hot. Weight felt okay in my hands but my right triceps was trying to slow me down. Asked for a spotter to watch me on 270lbs just in case with how bad these felt. Still managed another ugly PR on these but I didn't have to re-rack mid set this time. I was debating going for a top set of 8 or just volume work for the dumbbell presses. I went with volume work and it felt good. Still getting my butt handed to me on dumbbell bench presses. Key here seems to be shoulder stability as I always seem to have an issue with my right shoulder getting loose. Happened real bad with the 120's dumbbells when I got stopped at five. I knew I had more so I had to reclean them to get two more reps. Hopefully I can continue to improve here.
