Great workout - especially for not getting started until after 2am. I met a guy in the gym who was the first person I've ever seen in real life that knows what he is doing. He can squat 800+ and bench 500+. Pretty cool.

Beating my old bench PR of 190x2 wasn't too hard. However, my arm still kinda hurt as I would approach the top of each rep. I'm gonna try widening my grip to take some pressure off the triceps. If that doesn't help, then I'll just only do dips for a while. They don't bother my arm at all.

Here's what I look like now:

Just checkin out your log bro! looks like your making some good progress. Careful with that shoulder you dont want an injury to slow you down now. Believe me shoulder injuries suck. Keep killin it bro!

Well it's actually a tricep injury, but yeah, I know what you mean. It's really put a damper on my arm size and strength. The only time it bothers me at all is when I lock out a bench press. But thanks a lot for checking out my log. I appreciate the encouragement. I honestly don't know if I would have stuck with it this long if it weren't for the fine people on this board, haha.
