Legs Again

Posted in Training  :  Dec 28, 2010 5:32pm
After an arms session on Tuesday consisting mainly of dumbbell curls and triceps pushdowns with short rest periods and various intensity training methods employed, I hit legs light on the following day.

Back to the leg press machine for another 5 sets, peaking at 470 for 5 reps twice - after hitting 580 on Saturday I did not want to push things too hard just 5 days later.

It seems no matter what I do or how light I go, I just can't avoid pain in the area between the chest and right shoulder joint. I've done extensive research on proper bench technique, but I can't seem to avoid that pain. And quite frankly, it feels nice not having pain to deal with. I warmed up extensively today. Three sets with just the bare bar on the incline bench. Then gradually adding weight for three more warm-up sets. The payoff came during my working sets. Everyt...
