ME Bench (or: I can has Katana too nau?)

Got the 44" Katana in so decided to mess around with it today:
Shirted Bench:
315 x 1, 3-board (seater)
315 x 3, 3-board
315 x 3, 2-board
365 x 1, 2-board x 2
365 x 1, 1 board x 2
365 x 1 off chest

The arms on it are tight (no surprise) but fit pretty well. I imagine that they will get to be just right once the shirt stretches more. I wasn't able to seat it properly until the last two sets, but then it felt fine. I still haven't tried cranking it down either. (Thanks to the 4-star guys for suggesting I let it ride high while breaking it in.)

2-board:
315 x 3
315 x 8 (wtf?)

Just kept going on that second set like it was nothing. Very surprised.

Seated Military:
135 x 8
185 x 7
165 x 8
155 x 5 (going for 8; got tired)

Finished with some cable/rope triceps.
