2 Year Lifting Progress [440/730]

Another great night of training! Finished off with some chest, triceps, and shoulders today. Starting off with incline bench, I was doing 135lbs for about 11-12 reps on my first two sets and slowly got down to around 8 reps on my last two. On the second to last set, I hit failure, couldn’t rerack it, so I just rolled it down my torso. Worked beautifully until I jammed my finger between the barbell and the bench footrest lol. Nothing too bad, so benching was still quite nice! I then did my flat bench. I asked for a spotter for my first set, as I just wanted to try heavier for the first time in a while. I did 185 and I got two reps in, which isn’t that bad, now that I’m getting back into bench training! Also, given that I’m back down to the low 170s, this strength increase is still substantial. I then did 135 for my next set, and I think I got around 13 reps. Moving on, I did my dips, pull-down, isometric pull downs, isometric cable lateral raises, and finished off with dumbbell shoulder press. Was a very decent day, but did feel a bit small. I guess that’s how it goes around here. The journey kind of gets disappointing at times, but when you push through, you realize that there truly was nothing to worry about. Things get better with time. A lot better. And sometimes it gets worse before it gets better. You just cannot let go! I think the only thing I’m letting go of is my sense of time! Wayyy too late for consistent posting! Sleep schedule is soo off now lol! Thankfully...
