I apologize for the lack of videos. I downloaded some new editing software and can't figure out how to use it. Once I do I'll get the videos posted.

 

Since my bench has been all over the place I decided to take a token opener. The last thing I wanted to was bomb out and not get credit for my squat.

I warmed up to 315 raw and then put on my Metal Ace bench shirt for 405 and 455. The 455 touched and pressed but it felt heavy so I didn't gain any confidence there.

 

I opened with 155 - 3 white lights

I put the shirt on and took 450 for a safe second attempt. 3 white lights and it moved way better than it did in warm-ups.

I took 500 on my third and it moved well. Again 3 white lights.

This put my sub total at 1,445 and for a subtotal, this is a PR for me.

 

Time to deadlift...
