It's been a while since I've felt strong on a bench day. Usually it feels like the parking brake is on, but today it finally felt the way it used to be. My bodyweight was 105.8 this morning; I'm not sure if that has much to do with it. Here's how it went down:
Bench Press
45x10
45x5
65x3
85x1
105x1
125x1
145x1 (F6 shirt)
Heavy bench of the day...
160x1 (I was really happy to finally get that back; in previous training cycles, benches in the 160's have been pretty challenging to downright elusive, for some reason)
Drop sets...
150x3x2 (and this made me glad, too)
Board presses (2 bds)
170x3x2
Decline bench
140x3
150x3
Dips
BWTx10
10x10 (first time, in a long time, I put the chain on with weight!)
10x10
12.5x2
I'm really happy with this movement and my strength being there. With the weight added, I'm waiting to see what happens with the neck. Mitch and I swapped massages with blue mineral ice to loosen up after these, which really helped.
Ab Work
Decline crunches
25x20x2
Low ab crunches (off raised bench)
10x15x2
And this was after missing my extra triceps/shoulders day this week.
Things that make you go "Hmmm...."
