Friday Night Strength Workout - Bench

Another strength workout has come and gone.

This one was a challenge. I have been nursing a sore lower left back.

I started with the standard warmup

10 reps BAR
6 reps @ 95
4 reps @ 125

I went right to 155 and it went up easy and smooth

I was advised to head right to 185 for my next one. I had nothing, lost my tightness, failed it completely at the bottom.
Attempted another 185 and same results. It wasnt there...

I went down to 170 and missed it as well. Nervous system is telling me to slow down...

I went on to 45lb 1 arm presses from my back, 4 sets of 10 reps a side.
I was able to do 3 sets and my body (namely my lower back), told me to stop, so I did.

I completed my 100 reps (5sets of 20) BLUE BAND pulldowns carefully, and that was it...
