Not so great

I weight the exact same as I did yesterday so that's good!
Went to the gym to do a bench workout and did not get very far. On my second set on Bench (155lbs) I tweaked my elbow somehow and had quite a bit of discomfort. So I kept going but was not able to add much more weight. got up to 175 before I had to give up on adding weight. I just worked on reps for pretty much the rest of the night.
I still feel my form needs a lot of work and my stabilizer muscles are still pretty weak (I think this was mostly the reason I hurt my elbow). I am pretty unstable at the peak of the press and the weight sways a little. I did some DB Bench Presses to work on stabilization and still try to get a rounded chest workout. Also Did Push press and some Shrugs and that was about it.

I am hoping my elbow is fine for tomorrow as I really want to get some weights moving. Aside from some push ups and crunches, I am just taking tonight off to rest.

I will be out of town this weekend so workouts will be at a minimum which sucks, but at least I will be forced to give my body a break for at least 2 days. Might do me some good.
Still forgot to update you on my Bod Pod experience so I will really try to do that tonight.
That's it for now.
Cheers!
