I just realised I haven't done a bench only meet since I did the 2007 WPO Arnold bench bash. I placed 3rd overall with a 827 equipped bench. Memory lane........ Ah......... Ok now for tonight.

20 days away. Tonight I scaled things back a hair. By a hair I mean I skipped my incline work. Boh was on call and had to go sedate a patient (anesthetist) and Johnny cakes is in jersey for the week balancing out the beer to tourist ratio. Instead of compensating with a different movement I took bohs advise and just cut them out. Dieting is taking a small toll and I only have so much energy. It was a good choice.
