Managed to do four sets today, on all lifts exc. one, one arm rows. I did four sets on the following exercises in no order, lat pulldowns: 90×6, 100×6,110×6; 120×6, military press: 90×6, 100×6, 110×6; 120×6, one armed rows, 50×6, 60×8, 60×4(was going for 6 reps; couldn’t seem to get them last few out); 45×8(was a burn out set), rear delts 2×90x6, 100×6, 110×5.
Also, did ab crunches, 2 sets of 90×6; 100×8.

My thoughts on the workout:
Things went better than expected. Don’t know where I found that extra energy; man, did it help! As for the workout, it couldn’t have gone better, imo! The military press was shocking, didn’t think I could manage the weight I did. Went hard; pushed that weight, even though my shoulders said otherwise. Mind you I did this after hitting the rear delts. My arms and shoulders felt dead, lol!

The one armed rows went ok; it didn’t seem as though I rlly hit the back muscle like I would if I had of done seated rows. Just my opinion though! Next week, think I will try to go back to seated rows; Idk b/c of time constraints and classes. Might take next wek off. We’ll see! My back felt as though it got punished, BIG TIME! Felt as though the rear delts rlly hit the lats hard esp. as I upped the weight and changed the angle of the grip on the machine.

Any thoughts, comments, suggestions for change, etc.?

Have been lifting for about a year. Making decent progress, nothing to write home about. My chest progression sucks! The rest of my body is growing like a weed; my chest is lagging. Dnt know what to do. I have tried to up the reps; have changed the order of my routine around. About to give up on my chest b/c idk what else to do. Btw, my current routine is flat bench,  incl. and dips (when needed), machine bench press, cable flies and pec dec. My sets usually average around 12. My reps are mid-range. Beginning to think I need to up the rep rnage and lower the sets. Also,  have been at 45 lbs. DBs for a while. Want to try 55 lbs.; I might be a little out of my league. My next goal is 50. Was wondering should I skip the 50 lbs. and go sraight to 55; does anyone have any ideas, suggestions, comments, etc.?
