1.15.10--Bench Assistance

Sorry for missing out on yesterday's benching... I was obligated to go to the Kings-Ducks game (story to come later). Luckily, there was an unofficial powerlifting make up day today, as I saw Luke, Ben, Misael, and Darvin also working out today.

Standing Press
warmups
65x5
95x4 (first lift was ugly, but subsequent 3 were good)
95x4 (first lift was ugly, but subsequent 3 were good)
105xf...too hard to get it off my chest, which was the problem with my 95 lifts too. Once I get started, I can do it easily I think.
100x2 (first lift I cheated by resting on my head... a stupid idea) PR
100xf
okay enough dicking around with the standing press.

Bench Press (working on speed and explosiveness, varying grips)
115x4x2 (wide grip)
115x4x2 (medium grip)
115x4 (close grip)
115x8 (close grip)
Not as explosive as I wanted to be. But still a good workout.

Tricep Pulldowns
80x10
100x8
110x8
110x10 PR

Lat Pulldowns
140x3
140x2
150x2
170xf
160x1 PR
