After having set an all-time PR on my equipped bench press with 457lbs, I'm now in off season mode getting back to some heavy training while running my gym, THIRST.

Saturday's training was a good time with friends, and I also got to train with Adrian for the first time in months due to her health issues. My bench press wasn't a PR, but it was dang close, so overall I was happy with it given everything. Lots of extra tricep work and a nice little finisher of abs, rear delts, and a sick arm pump.
