Inflating the chest...

Yesterday was a rep day for chest.  Stuck with the dumbbells again, warmed up with 50s for several reps, 80s for a few, then went to the 100s for palms facing bench press got the 100s for 5 sets of 8.  I always make sure that I bench them like I would if I had a bar so my elbows are tucked all the way down.  Man, these fired up my triceps so bad that I had to cut one triceps exercise out because I was spent.  So, I then did pecdeck with the stack for 4 sets of 10, cable crossovers with the stacks(100) for 3 sets of 15.  Then, was planning on doing overhead dumbbell triceps press, but nope, tris were still throbbing and cramping a bit so I went with something I thought would be easier, rope pressdowns on the cable machine.  Stack(200) on that one for 4 sets of 12, and yeah at that point I decided there would be no more triceps that night.  Okay, so that's enough, my plans today didn't last as long as I had hoped, but man they were good.
