I only did 8 weeks---I basically am taking this week off---on Friday on my 3rd set 2nd rep of bench I felt a tweak in my chest where it meets the shoulder---went down for the 3rd rep and couldn't even lift it off my chest---then on Sunday and since Sunday a muscle in my back has been killing me like I pulled it or something---anyways it was enough to tell me that I should take most of this week off---so I am going for a run today and planning on doing a chest workout on Friday because it feels all better as of right now
Blut you have any ideas what I could do for the next two weeks before I go back to school to keep my strength up for testing----in particular for my 1 rep max bench?
I was thinking about doing 5x5 again for the next two weeks before I go back to school---any ideas? Curious to know where madcow is

I'd continue with active recovery, I think, in your position. Do some speed work for the first week and maybe work up to some triples in the second week. Don't make any injuries worse though. Take it as an opportunity to try some exercises you've not done for a while.
Running a couple of weeks of volume might work too since you've taken some time out. Take it steady with the complaining muscles.
