I have similar problems with some machinesExercise Video
Arsenal Incline Pec Fly
Once the height of the seat is adjusted properly, the incline really hits the right part of your chest. It's gives a great pump. Only downside is that I feel like there could be more tension in the stretched position but on this machine it's hardest right at the top. Also other problem is, that you can only really fit 10kg plates on the stack because 20kg ones are too big and bump each other. So it's limited to about 60kg a side I think. So far so good. I aim for about 15 rep sets on this.

@TheOne1 not good if you got a sharp pain bro its likely muscle tightness , take a few days off and stay on bpc/tb, add full collagen and bone broth tooWorkout Logs

I was feeling the fatigue on Thursday. I was kinda low on energy but still pushed thru. I remember telling a mate at the gym that I'll do a deload next week. Well... on Friday I went for my first working set of Lateral Raises (after a warm up) and within a few reps I felt a tightness in my right pectoral muscle and a sharp pain. I immediately knew I might have torn something so I stopped. I went to activate my right pec against no resistance and I could feel the sharp pain again. So I basically stopped my workout and called it a day. I've got an ultrasounds scheduled for next week to check out what exactly happened to any muscle tissue. I suspect it's only a grade 1 tear or something minor because the pain has settled and doesn't bother me much even against small resistance (like when i'm pushing my chair). I'm already on about 6 units of GH (3 pre-workout and 3 before bed) so hopefully that speeds up recovery and I might throw in some BPC157/TB500 in the mix too. I see a physiotherapist regularly also, so will see her next week for an assessment. It's been a little over 24 hours now and i've just been taking it easy (took a nap in the afternoon too), and it's feeling ok. I'm pretty disappointed tbh as I feel like my progress was going well and this as forced me to take a much needed rest anyway. I'm glad its not bad enough to be functionally immobilising as that could have been disastrous as a wheelchair user. I'll share the ultrasound report once I have it.
I'm still gonna be training next week, but of course chest is gonna have a chest, so i'll be doing arms, back and rear delts for a while haha.

This week's workouts went much better than I expected. The minor chest injury was obviously present and I could feel a small niggle here and there so I was a bit guarded. However, training everything else wasn't affected. I just modified the Nautilus Lateral Raise machine to standard dumbell lateral raises and threw in the reverse pec fly for rear delts. I struggle to do the dumbell lateral raises with strict form because some of my core muscles are weak or paralysed. But i had someone support my chest to keep me up and it was a real game changer. Certainly my favorite exercise just like that! I get really excited when I try something new-ish or something I have avoided due to mobility. And I without the chest injury I may not have ever tried it, so there's wisdom in everything

@TheOne1 your meal pics are the BEST EVER! very happy to see you eating nice and cleanGear dosage adjustment:
I've dropped my Testosterone Enanthate dose to 300mg per week from 350mg per week. The reason is to bring down my e2 conversion and hopefully be a bit drier.
As a result, just to keep the same Test:Mast 1:2 ratio, i'm also bringing down my Masteron dose to 600mg per week from 700mg per week.
I currently also inject 3.33IU of HGH in the morning (usually pre-workout) and another 3.33IU of HGH before bed. So a total of 6-7IU per day.
