Bench Training

Today I was back into the gym for some bench press training. Here is what I did.

Bench Press - Work up to 3 rep max. 275lbs.
3 Board Press - 295lbs/5 reps, 315lbs/3 reps, 335lbs/1 rep.
Close Grip Bench - 2 sets, 8 reps, 225lbs.

Lat Pull Downs - 160lbs/6 reps, 185lbs/6 reps, 210lbs/6 reps.
Supported T-Bar Rows - 8 sets, 6 reps, 70/115/160/205/230lbs then back down.
Hammer Curls - 4 sets, 10 reps, 50/60/65/70lbs.
Cable Extensions - 2 sets, 12 reps, 170/200lbs.

This work out feels really good. I'm making sure I work on my bench shirt technique. "Squeeze lower lats and elbows in.
