Hmm.... my traps!

Trapezius, that is.  The eccentric pull-ups really must have hit them yesterday, because they were sore by the end of the day.  Otherwise, a good workout.  I actually used the safeties for the bench press.  I'm glad they were there, but it wouldn't have been disastrous without them.  Today had 6 sets of the major exercises.  That's the most so far.  One more week and I'm on to Phase 2!  I'm glad my run is before the next Phase, though, because I have this feeling I'm going to be sore for a week.
