Bench Press and Squats

On Friday I hit some bench press and brought along my loose bench shirt. Fun!

Warm Up Matrix

Bench Press - 2 sets/12 reps/70kg, 120kg/8 reps, 150kg/3 reps, 160kg/1 reps.

Bench Shirt - 180kg/2 reps, 190kg/1 rep, 200kg/1 rep.

Band Assisted Pull Ups - 4 sets/6 reps WG, 4 sets/8 reps NG.

The shirt was loose enough for me to pull it on by myself. That said 200kg in a loose shirt is pretty good. My left elbow didn't bother me until training was done and I was getting dressed. No other concern since then.

Today I wanted to Squat. Not sure about wearing gear or going raw. I decided to go raw.

Warm Up Matrix

Squats - 2 sets/8 reps/bar, 135lbs/8 reps, 225lbs/6 reps, 315lbs/3 reps, 2 sets/1 rep/405lbs.

At this point I tweaked my right inner hamstring. Only very slightly. I rolled it and called it a day. Too bad because my form today was on point and the weights were moving really well. Oh well, next time.
