Wires, its very smart of you to emphasize form over weight. I know its difficult to do, I've personally had to do it many times, but I'm sure you'll find that your progress will be much more steady and the results better. Good workout!

Weight: 169lbs
Lat Pull-Downs: 130x4, 130x6
"V"-Bar Pull-Downs: 140x6m 145x5
BB Rows: 185x6, 175x5
Shrugs ( Smith Machine): 245x6, 255x6
Upright Rows (Smith Machine): 135x4, 135x6
Alt. DB Curls: R - 40x3, 35x5 ... L - 40x5x2
Straight Bar Curls: 80x6, 85x3
Hanging Leg Raises: Frontx10, Rightx5, Leftx5
I need to go down in weight next time on the alternating DB curls because I'm not getting the DB turned over enough at the top of the movement. I also need to work on getting a fuller range of motion on BB rows and upright rows. Overall, today's workout was excellent.

Weight: 169lbs
Incline DB Bench: 60x6, attempted 65 and failed, 60x5
Flat BB Bench: 160x6, 165x4, 175x2, 185x1
Dips: 12
Military press: 115x4, 120x5, 125x1

Today's workout was also excellent. I had a spotter today, so I went a bit heavier than I thought I could handle on bench and did okay. I've never actually tried to max out, but 185 is the most I've ever benched. It's not much, but I think I could easily get 200.

This workout was lack luster at best. I increased weight a bit on my pulldowns, but that's about it as far as good.

OK, so you didn't have the workout you had envisioned. It happens. Dust it off and make each one a little better next time.  :

3/30/06
Weight: 168lbs
Flat BB Bench: 160x4, 160x5, 165x2
Incline DB Bench: 60x4, 60x5
Peck Deck: 93x8
Cybex Chest Press: 170x6
Cybex Chest Press (going inwards at the top of the movement): 90x6
Dips: 15
BB Military Press: 115x2, 105x4
Cybex Overhead Press: 110x3
Cybex Overhead Press (going inwards at the top of the movement): 100x4
Standing Side Lateral DB Raises: 25x6, 30x6, 30x5
Cable Pushdowns: 150x8, 160x4, 160x5
Cable Rope Crunches: 150x15
As you can see, this chest/shoulders/triceps workout was a lot different from my usual one. My shoulders haven't been responding very well at all and after my first chest exercise (Flat BB Bench), I decided to change it up a bit. I dropped lying tricep extensions and did some sets on the cybex machines and peck deck.
I'm very happy with how my triceps are progressing though. I usually do my tricep extensions before the cable pushdowns, so I ended up having to put 2 5lb dumbbells on top of the weight stack on the cable machine for my last 2 sets (the machine only has 150lbs).
