04/21/10 Bench

Just getting back into the swing of things. Muscles felt fine going into the workout (not sore or fatigued) but once getting into it, I definitely am not at the top of my game.


The incline was a bit of a mistake too. Meant to keep it in the 8-9 RPE range - failed miserably at that. This is an exercise I intend to hit harder for this training cycle. Having a 290ish raw bench, my incline should be better than it is.

Normal Grip Competition Pause Bench

185 lbs x 6 reps x 1 sets @ 8 RPE
205 lbs x 6 reps x 2 sets @ 8 RPE
205 lbs x 6 reps x 1 sets @ 9 RPE
185 lbs x 6 reps x 1 sets @ 8 RPE

Reverse Band Bench (purples at pin 6)

275 lbs x 5 reps x 4 sets @ 8 RPE

Incline Bench

135 lbs x 5 reps x 1 sets @ 7 RPE
185 lbs x 5 reps x 1 sets @ 10 RPE
175 lbs x 4 reps x 1 sets @ 10 RPE
165 lbs x 5 reps x 1 sets @ 9 RPE


Finished with some cable tricep pushdowns, seated cable rows, and hammer curls. Each for sets of 8.
