Bench Press

Another great work out.

Warm Up
Stationary Bike - 6 minutes.
Plyometric Push Ups - 2 sets/10 reps.
Bench Press - 2 sets/12 reps/135lbs, 1 set/8 reps/225lbs.

Power Sets
7 sets/1 rep/275lbs.
(5 minutes rest after each set)

Pump Sets
4 sets/3 reps/225lbs, 2 sets/4 reps/225lbs.
(2 minutes rest after each set)

Core Work
Ab Sling Knee Ups - 4 sets/15 reps.

I'm noticing a change for the better in how I feel and the way I handle the weights. On an unrelated topic I read an interesting article on the CNS and over training.
