Monday was a max Effort Bench day, and since my training partners are totally gay for chains right now, we did a floor press with 200lbs of chain.

After warming up, I did a few sets with the bar, then one with 3 chains, and another with 5.

Then the bar moved up as follows:

95 x 1

135 x 1

185 x 1

205 x 1

225 x 1

245 x 1

The 245 was a grind, but clean. I don't have a PR here, so I guess that'll be it.

Next is where things got a little funky.

We were doing pull-ups as an assistance exercise, and while I wasn't doing the crossfit kipping nonsense, I did try to pull up out of the bottom position a little to hard and felt that oh-so distinct sensation of ripping something in my lat/teres.

This pretty much ended the day, as I was concerned that I had done damage. Any sort of pulling motion hurt. Fortunately though, It got way better over the next couple of days, so I think I just tore some scar tissue.

Never a dull moment
