Routine B - Rotation 3 - Back & Delts

Okay, the back and rhomboids are still not 100%.
I took it easy today and I'm going to take a few days off to get healthier. I'll do some stretching, maybe a yoga class.
I think it is the smart thing to do.

Routine B - Rotation 3 - Chest & Arms

I'm having issues in my back which is causing me to have diminished strength in my left side. Last chest day was the first time I noticed it but just chalked it up to possibly losing strength. But when I moved to arms I actually made gains and the following back and leg training days I did as well. Today I was having the same issues with chest and realized it was something in my back. The Chiropractor usually straightens things out in one shot. I'll get there first thing next week.

Last chest & arms training day I didn't post, just the frame of mind it put me in, but looking back arms was actually a decent workout. I also got 110's up for 6 on my first working set on inclines. After that I couldn't even move 90's. I'm my worst enemy when it comes to not accomplishing what I set out to do. However, I always get back on the horse. I will move 120's on the flat bench.
