Chest & Back Tuesday after Snowboarding Sunday

Went snowboarding on Sunday which was a change of pace and left me exhausted (and maybe recovering from a concussion) on Monday so I took it as a rest day. Got back in the gym today and it was a little tough getting back into the routine. I was still able to get increase my weight on most of the exercises but everything took a little longer than I wanted it to (although it did not seem like it) so I cut out the Core Tabata that I was planning. Tomorrow is legs and hopefully my body will be back in the routine so that I can hit it hard.   
Warm Up:

Chest/Back Routine  - 1st set is low weight to warm up and focus on form. Sets 2 - 5 are for max weight for 5 reps each.

Notes / Results:

  • Weight: 196. Great progress. I am working harder to take control of my eating impulses to continue this success.
  • Time: 50 minutes. Would have gone longer if I had done 2 rounds of Core Tabata which were in the plans.
  • Incline Bench Press
