- I was warming up for bench, on my last weight acclimation sets (315x2), and when I lifted the bar of the rest, I felt my pec muscle almost in my armpit pull really bad. Pissed me off bad.. So, I stretched it out and did a set of 5 with 345, strong as hell too, but I still felt that pain every time the bar touched my chest. So, I decided to skip bench pressing because I didn't want that pain turning into something worse. It hurt less doing incline dumbbell. I started off with only 100 for 8 reps very slowly to measure whether or not I could keep going. I ended up being fine and did four sets of 6-10 reps, ending with the 120's for the final two sets of 8 and 6 reps. The pain was only slight after that. It hurt when I picked up the barbell to do the JS Rows too. Still, it wasn't anything close to bad, but it got inside my head enough to where I just wanted to leave the gym and go smash my fist against something. After I somehow made it through the rows, I did a set of cable rows just for something extra. I used the stack for a set of 12.

So, yesterday night and today I've had the heating pad on my right pec ( in my armpit) just in case. 30 minutes on, 30 off. Just FYI....
