Last night was chest. First exercise pec dec fly machine, started with half stack, but it was immediately a perfect set. The weight and the contraction felt perfect. Did three hard sets to failure. It was light weight, but it felt heavy. Moved over to Smith machine incline press, and there was 15lbs on each side of the bar, so I just used that for a warm up. Well, my chest was contracting and getting tight as a mofo, even with only 30lbs, so I stuck with that for a few sets. I did eventually do one set with 325lbs, but just for a couple reps. My pecs were insanely tight and I didn't need to do much. Left the gym after that.
Today was shoulders and triceps. Starting with dumbbell raises, did 15lbs for two sets, then 30lbs, then 45 lbs, then 65lbs. Didn't come anywhere near failure on any of the sets. Then I did some machine presses, a few reps at each weight increment, up to a few reps with the full stack. Just did that one set then finished and went over and supersetted some light weight dumbbell laterals and some v-bar tricep pushdowns on the pulleys. The pump was great.
