Currently Testing Raw Lifts Before Starting Program Next Week

Yesterday I worked up with some pause singles on bench - I didn't go till failure but wanted to get an idea of where to base my numbers off of for the upcoming weeks. I got to 335lbs and then stopped there because I was pressing a little uneven because of my wrist injury (and it was moving pretty slow). My bench is really weak right now, but I'm confident once I get more raw work in again that things will go back up quickly.

Warm-Up:
*500 meters on rower

*3 sets of mace swings with ShouldeRok

*Couple short trips back and forth of:

a. Toe touch to leg swings

b. Lunges

c. Hip flexor stretch/Spiderman crawl

Strength Work:
A1*. Med Ball Throws - 3x5

A2*. Chin Ups - 3x6

B. Bench Press - up to 335x1

E. Tricep Cable Pushdowns - 4x18
