Dave & Phil Benching Marathon (ME Uppder Body)

I picked up Dave at the airport this morning. Dave had like 1 hour of sleep. Fortunately, we had Indian food from Hurry Curry.

Band-Lightened* Flat Bench:
*double-looped, non-choked green bands. This makes it like a ton directly off the chest, and it immediately stops supporting like an inch off the chest. Ludicrous.

315 x 1 x 5
335 x 2 x 2 (sooooo hard; both Dave and I attempted third reps and failed)
365 x 1 x 1 (slow, but got it)

Shirted* Flat Bench:
*Inzer Rage X

365 x 4 x 1. I missed the first rep because I got out of the groove, got all the others. THe point of doing this after the primary work and tired is to get lesser weight to touch. So that worked, since it got easier and easier to get the damn weight to touch on the chest.

Skullcrushers:
Ez-Curl Bar + 110, 1 x 8
Ez-Curl Bar + 120, 1 x 7

I don't know what the Ez-Curl Bar weighs; 25? 35? Something

Chest-Supported Row:
4 plates + 10, 3 x 5

Band-Resisted* Decline Bench Ab Crunch:
*Green bands
Dave suggested these. Normally the decline bench abs are a joke, but using bands made it worth doing.

EZ Curl bar is 30lbs at Wooden. Also, we added 20lbs for the second set because we are awesome.
