12-22-10 Bench: Mission Accomplished

Bench
205 x 1 @ 8
225 x 1 @ 9 PR
235 x spot

The weights felt super easy today. Everything felt about 20 pounds lighter off the chest. Maybe this was because the bar only weighed 25 pounds I though... so I weighed it and it weighed 45 pounds! I felt like I could have gotten a second rep at 225. It was so easy that I didn't rest enough for 235 which I almost had and maybe could have grinded out if I had been focusing more. Anyway 225 was a long term goal that I finally hit. This also brings my total to 1004 lbs. 1000 pound club! I think the weight felt so easy because of the bench I was on at PHS. It was super squishy so I could sink into and get a great arch without my back slipping. Hopefully I can reproduce this at Wooden.

Incline Bench

Triceps Pushdowns

Ran out of time. I was working out at Pasadena High School's weight room with the football team and had to leave when they left.

Weigh In: 156 pounds with wet shoes and clothes so about 153-154
