C4W1D5 - CBS

First Chest/Back Superset + Shoulders workout (CBS) of the challenge. Unlike previous challenges I am going to log each workout so I can make more progress and change things up every 4 weeks. Is it a good or bad idea to get in a sauna or hot tub right after strength training? I increased weights on everything except shoulder compared to last Friday, my practice warm-up workout.
