Bench. Tuesday, 1/11/11.

**** (THIS IS A LATE POST I KNOW BUT) I'M TAKING 2 WEEKS OFF AFTER THIS WORKOUT (1/11/11) TO FULLY REST WITH BOTH MY ACHILLES FLARING UP, SINCE IT GOT TO THE POINT WHERE WALKING HURTS. AS OF TODAY (MONDAY, 1/17/11) I HAVE SEEN A PODIATRIST, AND HAVE BEEN ON A NEW ANTI-INFLAMMATORY MEDICATION FOR 3 DAYS NOW, SO REST IS KEY FOR THIS REMAINING WEEK OFF AND THEN HOPEFULLY I CAN GET BACK TO BASIC UPPER BODY LIFTING. ****
