5/14 – Sheiko #39 – Session 2

Nice workout. Deads were all easy, but I forgot how exhausting those paused deads can be. Inclines felt real solid today. Tried the slingshot with close grip bench since I just cannot bench close grip without shoulder pain, and it works great. It supports just enough to save my shoulders at the bottom, and goes slack at the halfway point so I can really overload the tris. I will keep this one in the rotation.
