Bench Press

Still getting stronger but the work outs are getting tougher.

Warm Up
Leg Swings and lots of Stretching.
Shoulder mobility.
Bench Press - 135lbs/12 reps, 225lbs/10 reps, 315lbs/5 reps.

Power Phase
Bench Press (with wrist wraps) - 7 sets/1 rep/365lbs (last set was 370lbs)
*5 minutes rest after each set*

Pump Phase
Bench Press (with wrist wraps and light bands) - 6 sets/5, 5, 5, 4, 4, 4 reps/305lbs to 320lbs.
*ample rest but less than 5 minutes*

Support Work
Dumbbell Rows - 3 sets/8, 10, 10 reps/145lbs.
Dumbbell Hammer Curls - 3 sets/12 reps/42.5lbs.
Dumbbell OH Extensions - 3 sets/12 reps/42.5lbs.

A really tough work out. The Pump Phase was difficult. Time to eat and time for some rest.
