After sustaining multiple low back issues the past year, I'm now focusing on being a bench press specialist for the next year or so (both raw and equipped). I'm currently just trying to increase muscle mass and keep my low back healthy and give it time to rest and recover.

Thursday lat morning I got in some shoulder and arm training. A rather quick day where I just chased a pump and got in my extra work out. Using some fun supersets, and just trying to emphasize good contractions for the time being. Hopefully here in the coming weeks I'll start to ramp things up a bit before the holidays hit since I know I'll be in a good caloric surplus.
