Trained in a crappy Icon Fitness. The bench was terrible. Up until the 125 I used a shitty bar. Did 4 reps with 125 and stopped. I was supposed to do 6 reps@8 and I did 4@9. Then I found a Texas power bar, switched to it for 122.5 but it couldn't make up for the crappy bench.
Pendlay rows:
95x1 - I just wanted finish the workou quickly at this point and 95 was already on the bar. Felt a small pop in my back. Luckily it doesn't seem bad. I finished the rest of the workout and now (2 hours later) my back feels fine. Hopefully it will be the same tomorrow morning.
Lesson: Don't be lazy with warm ups - even in accessories.
