3 Board Press in Gear

Still getting ready for Nationals. Today is my first day in my bench shirt. Although I'm feeling under the weather (it's getting worse as the day goes on) I still managed a great morning of pressing.

Warm Up - Stationary Bike 5 minutes.
Bench Warm Up - 135lbs/12 reps, 225lbs/6 reps, 315lbs/1 rep.
3 Board Gear Press - 405lbs/3 reps, 455lbs/3 reps, 495lbs/1 rep.
Push Ups - 3 sets/12 reps.
Pull Up Negatives - 3 sets/6 reps.
Dumbbell Bent Over Rows - 3 sets/6 reps/85lbs.

I was totally spent after this work out. I'm coming down with some kinda virus. The 495lbs felt really good and I could have managed more if I was 100%. Maybe 515lbs. This is excellent for my competition forecast. I speculate a 205 - 210kg Bench Press at Nationals 11 April 2010.
