Some Assistance Upper Body

Sweet patootie monkey cream I'm sore! I got my work in yesterday anyways lol!

Decided to work a more speed bench type workout. I took 30 seconds between the first 6 sets and then pooped and had to do 60 seconds. I think if I went to 45 seconds I'd maintain them all better. I'd really like to stay away from dropping the bar weight.

I wasn't going to bother with grippers as they're so CNS based and I'm so fried today but I gave it a go and they felt strong.

I was also going to hit my shoulders and back before supper tonight and......not required. I'm cooked.
