Bench Press and Squats

Yesterday evening I was bored so I made the trip out to the 17 Wing Strength Club  for some Bench Press.

Light Stretches.

Bench Press - 2 sets/12 reps/70kg, 2 sets/6 reps/120kg, 150kg/2 reps, 3 sets/1 rep/160kg, 2 sets/1 rep/165kg. 3 sets/6 reps/120kg, 2 sets/7 reps/120kg.

Band Assisted Pull Ups - 3 sets/6 reps (wide grip), 3 sets/8 reps (narrow parallel grip).

A really good evening of pressing considering I was working the last two midnight's. I thought I would be tired. Still strong.

This morning I had an early call into work. Afterwards it was time for squats.

Warm Up Matrix

Squats - 2 sets/8 reps/bar, 2 sets/6 reps/70kg, 2 sets/3 reps/120kg, 150kg/1 rep, 150kg/2 reps, 160kg/1 rep, 170kg/1 rep, 3 sets/6 reps/70kg, 2 sets/8 reps/70kg.

I think I've finally figured out my squat stance. Now it's time to get my squat strong again. I watched this video and it helped a lot.
