My cold is almost gone. I'm at that stage where I'm periodically coughing up really sticky phlegm.

- Wanted more reps on the last set,but feeling exhausted. Probably because of my almost-gone cold.

Reverse Grip Bench Press
Paused until work sets.
Paused first rep on work sets.
I missed the last rep during the last set last week, but I'm going to increase the weight this week anyways.
Also, I obtained an anti-slip shelf and drawer liner to help prevent my back from slipping on the bench. Works pretty well so far!
