Bench Press

MY strong Squats the other day inspired my Bench training today. Not my strongest Bench Press ever but some damn close.

Warm Up
Leg Swings, Stretching, and shoulder/elbow mobility.
Bench Press - 75kg/12 reps, 75kg/4 reps (dynamic), 125kg/8 reps, 125kg/3 reps (dynamic).

Power Phase
Bench Press - 5 sets/1 rep/165, 165, 170, 172.5, 165kg.

Pump Phase
Bench Press (with Titan RAM) - 3 sets/5, 4, 5 reps/165kg.
Bench Press - 3 sets/6, 7, 6 reps/125kg.

Support Work
Lat Pull Downs - 3 sets/8 reps/160, 175, 190lbs.
BN Standing Shoulder Press - 3 sets/12 reps/70, 80, 90lbs.

172.5kg is 380lbs. It was a touch and go rep but I still managed it. I am really focusing on my set up and making sure to drive with my entire body. As with previous Bench work outs I am finding I receive a large pump in my lats and upper back. I feel that my Bench Press is evolving and I will be in for some really good gains in the near future.
