The first sets of laterals and extensions were light warm ups. When I start lifting heavier my elbows and shoulders give me a problem. I thought I would try this approach to see if it would work. I will lower the volume and increase the weight once I start my supplements in January.

a elbow and shoulder problem. is this pain or fattigue? because if the elbow and shoulder fattigue before the pecs, then why train them before the benching? I didnt understand that one ()-;

My old lifting coach used to have shoulder problems when he benched heavy. He started doing light side laterals as a warm up and the pain went away.

It definitely is not fatigue. It's these damn geriatric joints of mine
