The Workout:
BB Rows
Worked up to 185 x 5.
Bench Press
Worked up to 185 x 1.
Side raises.
2 light sets.
Tendonitis through arm/shoulder/scapula/pec was feeling pretty good after this, so I just quit here. Got a little stimulus and movement without making the situation worse and got the hell out.
Thoughts:
I did this work today to just keep some strength and mobility in my upper body. I keep battling the tendonitis and inflammation issues even though they are getting better. Since a big part of healing up from this is rest, I did singles and worked up on the bench. This was to keep the workload super low but still get some stimulus.
I went with a set of five for the rows since they seem to impact the inflammation less.
I am staying patient with the healing process here. I want to bench big in 5 years more than I want to bench big in 5 weeks.
