Chest, Tri's and Dumbbell Fly's

Did some bench, incline dumbbell fly's and body weight dips last night.  Here are the sets.  You'll notice I added warm up sets below.  I figure why the hell not.  

10/13/11
Bench Press - 5 sets
95x8 (warmup)
135x5 (warmup)
175x5
175x5
175x4
165x6
165x5

Incline Dumbbell Fly's - 3 sets
40's x 8 (warmup)
50's x 5
55's x 5
65's x 4

Bodyweight Dips - 2 sets
25 reps
20 reps

I haven't done fly's in over a month, and I forgot to check my log before I went to the gym.  Because of this I was a little unsure of what weight I could do.  50's felt light, so I did 55's.  These felt really light too so I jacked it up to 65's.  Just like Goldilocks, these felt juuuuuuuust right, but at that point my chest was tired as hell.  Next time, I'll start with 65's after warming up.

I'm definitely slowly increasing my bench, at least in repetitions.  Last week I was only able to get 2 sets of 175 before having to drop it to 165.  This week I got 1 more set of 4 reps in.  Once I can nail 5 sets of 5, I'm increasing the weight to 185.
