Workout #5/ week 9

Felt a bit rough today. Just tired. Haven't been sleeping great. Feel like a have a "tad" bit of biceps tendinitis. I know exactly what this is from: everytime I start using some decent weight on squats using a regular straight bar I suffer biceps tendinitis. Of course, this is what I have been doing lately. Though I have been using a Manta Ray (which makes it a bit more comfy on my shoulders) it's still not as effective at preventing the tendinitis as the Safety Squat Bar (SSB). Today I didn't even use the manta ray so I was really asking for trouble. I do like using a straight bar, but I have to limit it's use. It's back to the SSB next week. Fortunately this is not too bad at all, but I want to nip this before it gets worse.

Here's what I did today:

Squats-45x5, 135x5, 225x3, 275x2, 280x2, 285x2, 290x2, 295x2
(in between sets I did 5 sets of 10 neck extensions)

Bench press- 45x20, 135x5, 285x2, 295x2, 305x2, 315x2, 325x2
