Beyond 531: Cycle 1, Week 1 (stopped halfway through the cycle; back tweak)

I tweaked my back last night putting weights away. It’s been painful all day. I have no idea if I’ll be able to do V Handles tomorrow or even overhead presses, for that matter. So annoying.

Incline Press (plug in weight: 200)
45/20, 45/10, 95/5
130/5, 150/5, 170/10, 185/4, 190/2, 200/1, 200/1, 200/1
130/8, 130/8, 130/8

Light walking on the treadmill.

Ok workout considering the throbbing pain.
