Slowing down

Today was bench press day again. I just matched my weight since last time: 45 kg times 10. Maybe I got greedy and increased my weights too fast lately. Then I did barbell curls, also at the same weight as last time (22,5 kg, 50 lbs). I hardly see any strength improvement in my arms from my first month of training! I ended with dumbbell laterals, one hand at a time. I feel a bad kind of pain from this exercise and wonder if I should stop doing it, or at least not bring elbows to shoulder height.

I’m considering to slow down from now on. Trying to fit each of the big three into the week twice may be too much. Maybe I should take a day of rest between workout days.
