This session was the first time in close to a year that I felt strong during a bench session and had NO PAIN. I brought my grip out a finger wider than the very close grip I have been using over the last few weeks and felt much more stable. With the closer grip I was using before I had a tough time positioning my elbows both at the top and bottom of the movement. With my hands a finger wider I was able to move much more naturally and felt like I had an easier time locking out.

OK- THIS IS VERY EXCITING! I haven't been even close to this strong with 225lbs in far too long. I'm really feeling like I'm FINALLY moving in the right direction
