Medium Bench Press

My Squats and Deadlifts have been found lacking lately. I was supposed to Squat heavy but my lower back just wouldn't let me. I really need to work on my core strength. Time for core work. Planks and Ab Sling Knee Ups are a good start but today it's Bench Press and OH Presses.

Light Stretches and Shoulder Mobility.

Bench Press - 2 sets/12 reps/135lbs, 225lbs/6 reps, 3 sets/6 reps/275lbs, 275lbs/8 reps.


All these reps were dynamic and done rapid fire.

Standing Barbell Press - 3 sets/8 reps/135lbs, 145lbs/8 reps.


The problems I'm suffering from with Squats and Deads are not an issue with Bench Press. The Standing Presses are getting stronger.
