Chest, Shoulders and Triceps Workout

I had a great upper body workout, finished off with Standing Cable Hip Abduction. I think I'm totally addicted to it! I always want to incorporate this Standing Cable Leg Raises all the time in the end of my workout, doesn't matter if it's upper or lower body day.

DB Incline Bench Press
15lbs x 15 moderate weights
20lbs x 8 - felt better than expected- focused on pushing from armpits & chest
20lbs x 8 - will try aiming 9 next
20lbs x 8 - tried for 1 more but wasn't possible

30lbs x 12 - last 2 reps struggled a bit
30lbs x 12 - hard last 2 reps
30lbs x

DB Prone Rear Delt Raise
5lbs x 15 - felt light
10lbs x 8 - a bit too heavy - couldn't get into "T" position when raised up the arms
10lbs x 8 - focused on contracting upper traps
10lbs x 8 (I might want to bring my own pair of 8lbs DB for doing this move!)

BB Close Grip Bench Press
30lbs x 15 - ok/ need to focus on forms - keeping elbows close to body
30lbs x 15
30lbs x 15
