– 135.0 lbs x 12 reps
– 185.0 lbs x 10 reps

– 245.0 lbs x 10 reps
– 245.0 lbs x 10 reps

Still working on the shoulder issue. As weight gets to 225 and up, I find that touching my chest with it causes discomfort and a “be careful” feeling. Stopping 1″ above my chest eliminates that feeling. So until I work this shit out, bodybuilding style benching it will be.

** Incline Dumbbell Bench Press **
– 80.0 lbs x 10 reps
– 80.0 lbs x 10 reps
– 80.0 lbs x 10 reps

Same thing here as on the bench, but changing hand positions helps some. Not pushing a lot of weight right but instead playing it safe.

** Incline Dumbbell Fly **
– 35.0 lbs x 12 reps
– 35.0 lbs x 12 reps
– 35.0 lbs x 12 reps

** Push ups **
– 12 reps
– 10 reps
– 10 reps

** Lateral Dumbbell Raise **
– 45.0 lbs x 40 reps
– 20.0 lbs x 15 reps
– 45.0 lbs x 40 reps
– 20.0 lbs x 12 reps
– 45.0 lbs x 30 reps
– 20.0 lbs x 12 reps
– 45.0 lbs x 15 reps

Partials to full rep supersets.

** Rear Delt Machine Fly **
– 130.0 lbs x 100 reps

** Front Dumbbell Raise **
– 20.0 lbs x 12 reps
– 20.0 lbs x 12 reps
– 20.0 lbs x 12 reps

A little frustrating to deal with this shit, but it is what it is and you find a way to work around it.
