Decided to test out the shoulder today...
Bench:
133 x 20
183 x 15
221 x 8, 8, 8
The shoulder didn't have any pain today, which was amazing. There was definitely some discomfort though by the time i hit 225, so I just stayed there and did reps until it felt uncomfortable. However, the bicep tendon pain was unreal after the third set. I have no idea why it was so bad, as i haven't done anything to irritate it. It was probably the worst it's ever been to the point that i felt like i was going to pass out from the pain.
Bent over-rows:
245 x 8
267 x 5, 6, 8
These were tough because it hurt a lot just to bend my arm. Once bent, I could rep it out and then try not o hyperventilate from the pain after the set.
Lat-pull Down:
250 x 8, 8, 8, 8
Machine Dips:
4 sets?
No idea what the weight was
Did some of the following: Cable Flyes, Tricep Extensions, 1 set of hammer curls. transversus cruches, and pnf.
By the time the workout ended, the pain was down from an @7 to an @4. I really hope that it goes away. The shoulder discomfort stuck around but not nearly as bad as it had been (no pain though). I'll probably take the week off from benching proper but keep up the pressing and triceps.

Purely speculation, but could your bicep tendon pain have been exacerbated by you subconsciously relieving stress from your shoulder? Perhaps putting more emphasis on your arms?
Dave, there is only one solution. We can make you stronger, better, faster. We have the technology. Become.......Bionic!
Dave that's a lot of reps on bench. Could it be possible that you got the massive tendon pain because of this? The high number of reps translates to a lot of time for your tendon to be flexing.
AHH!!!! DAVE GET BETTER ASAFP!!!!!
Btw I think what Vit said might have contributed to the pain.
