i worked chest and tris, and for some reason my chest took a while to overload with blood then usual, meaning my tris were doing all the work and i did not feel too much in my chest; what the hell is this?

do you guys think that my muscles were shocked a little too much after my break or what?

im a little pissed off right now, has this ever happened to you before? maybe next workout i will be stronger who knows.

any opinions or experiences would be very much appreciated

There's a lot of individual variability in the response to layoffs. Personally, I find I always come back much weaker, not stronger, after a layoff, and I've posted elsewhere to the board that I think the important ingredient here is longevity of training: Guys who've been training for many years seem to benefit from layoffs, guys who've just started, or who've only been lifting for a few years, don't benefit as much, if at all. I've been lifting for five years, and still don't benefit from layoffs.

I read somewhere that many lifters lose about 1% of their strength for each day of layoff. As I said, it's different for everybody.
