    Note: After a two day break came back and hit the weightroom hard. No pr's today but i'm working on my bench form and 185x10. My inclines also touched chest today or about 2 cm off my chest - Wasn't use to the full ROM so that's the next thing to work on. I know people say it's about the elbows when doing benche/incline to avoid shoulder rotation but my shoulders are always ****ed up, I have permanent rotatorcuff problems so it makes my ROM slightly lesssss but it's still better then 90% of the peopel I like to think. Tomorrow, squats?
