I considered not going to the gym today, and that would have been a wise decision. Then when I approached the gym on my trip home, instead of bypassing it I merged left and decided to see what I could do.
Incline Bench Press
10x20kg -- Not nearly as bad as benching on Tuesday, but I could feel undue tension in my left bicep, which was the first sign of trouble earlier in the week. So I concluded that continuing wasn't as good an idea as trying something else.
Press
10x20kg -- I had my suspicions that this exercise would feel good, and my suspicions proved to be correct. So I started loading up the bar.
5x25kg
3x30kg
1x35kg
5x5x38kg
Fat Gripz Row
3x12x52.5kg
Wide Grip Seated Row
3x12x40kg
And then I proceeded to do some external rotations, tricep pushdowns and curls with a light resistance band. No pull ups; I'm paranoid of them right now.
Physio tomorrow, hopefully they can sort out my shoulder and won't give me terrible news like "no lifting for 6 weeks."
In other news, I got the results of my blood test back yesterday. Like the last blood test I took, the diagnosis is that I'm very, very boring. Whoop-whoop-whoop!
Really hope there is no issue with your shoulder. Good luck on that.
