Just did chest today. About a week or two ago I was doing weighted dips and I got some pain in my sternum area. I was unable to do any sort of barbell presses in the previous few workouts due to this pain. I switched to the normal bench for the first time in well years (No workout partner). I wasn't to impressed with my lifts, but I tried the flat barbell press again today and work up from 45lbs (To see if it would hurt) all the way to my standard 85lbs. I then tried 90 (My previous heaviest weight with a set of 6-8 reps generally). I had enough confidence after that set and tried the 95's. I pumped out 4 solid reps. Felt good, i'm sure I could have done a few more if I wern't so tired from doing the test presses. At the end I attempted a dip, with no weight and immediately felt pain. I guess i'll be taking some time off from those for a long while
