so iv'e been working out at home on the smith machine i did low weight like 150lbs chest flat bench then incline the superset with tris behind the head then right to flys


this shit left me not be able to move is this good to switch up like that i thought id give it a try and i kicked my ass lol 30seconds rest for just chest then super set with the tri and fyls killer even low weight

few tips
1) More rest
2) Abandon the super sets for a bit and work on developing some solid strength first
3) To really develop tricep strength do not do them the same day as chest (you work your triceps while working your chest, so when you try to do triceps afterwards you can't work them as hard because of fatigue)
4) Increase your rest...oh I said that

More rest, and I would not use the smith machine either. Just do flat bench press, so that you build up your supporting muscle strength.

If this was your first workout for four months, and you were in pain, that probably isn't a bit surprise. I wouldn't have been doing fly personally, just stick to things like push ups and chest press, and bent over row.
Triceps behind the head, probably also a little more intense than something like bodyweight dips, just to ease you into it? I would maybe do 4 weeks of that sort of thing to build up your base strength, then more to exercises that isolate after that perhaps?

Kirk, I feel your pain, Bro (just back after two years myself... long miserable story). Looks like reasonable enough advice above (especially abandoning smith machine!), but go easy, OK? Compound movements, plenty of rest, etc etc.

Good luck.
