8/2 Back & Delts

Good workout today. Was thinking that I should switch things up so I went underhand on the wide grip lat and bent rows, felt pretty good and am a bit stronger this way (which makes sense since the biceps are involved more). Also, i usually push up and in on db shoulder press and decided to just push up without an inward range of motion. Not sure if it makes a difference or if one is better than the other, let me know what you think. Went heavier on the side laterals and used a lil upward push through the knees on a few of the last couple of reps per set.
And I am dreading the thought of a 60 g carb day tomorrow, but whatever it takes i will do it!!!
Was wondering when should i up weight on working sets? What I have been doing is when I can hit the last set for 8 reps, i usually up it about 2.5-5 lbs and then move up the 10 and 8 rep working sets.

Wide Grip Lat Pulldowns - 90/14, 95/12, 110/10, 115/8, 125/9

Bent Rows - 135/10, 175/8/8/6, burn 135/ 6

Rope Pulldowns - 107.5/12/12/10 drop 75/15 (These were really good, explosive positive, 1 sec hold, and slow negative)

DB Shoulder Press - 35/12, 50/10, 55/8, 70/6

DB Side Laterals - 20/10/10/8/8 burn 15/3 (def should have used the 10's or 5's)

20 min treadmill @ 7% incline & 3.7 mph
