Bench Day 9/14/2010

Bench

245 x 0 fail (DAMN IT; I'll get it next time)
235 x 1 PR( easy )
I really thought I had 245. I came off my chest just fine, but my sticking point is the 2-3 board. I haven't done board work in the last couple of weeks (maybe that hurt me a little bit). Instead, I've been doing shirt work. I should have, at least, 245 at the end of the next 531 cycle.

Push Press

155 x 3
185 x 3
185 x 3
195 x 3 PR
185 x 3

Incline Dumbbell Bench

75's x 9
80's x 8
80's x 9
70's x 7

Superset - Wide Grip Pull Ups w/ Shoulder Raises ( up straight, lateral and bent over; 6 reps each )

x15 / x18
x12 / x18
x10 / x18
x10 / x18

Cardio - A combination of the following ( 15 minutes )
20 sec mountain climbers; 30 sec long jumps/burpees; 20 push ups; and suicides.
I'm done going for runs. It's time to get my heart rate going in a shorter amount of time. Must stay under 190. I've also been eating better foods.

On singles day, it's important to hit more than one rep. The goal is to accustom the body to grinding through a heavy weight. It's okay that you failed, but unless you were really exhausted, I would have hit 235 for 1-3 more singles.
