Good session, hit a lactic acid wall on benching.  Did some high rep bb rows, which I don't go for very often.  Really focused on letting my lats do the work.  It's common to overcompensate and use your biceps too much to pull the weight up. A great way to avoid this is to think of your arms just as hooks hanging from your lats.  They can't move the weight, or try to imagine that this is so, and the only thing that can is your lats.  I think they were pretty fried by the time I got to the pullups because I shit the bed on them.
