Man, lifting raw is humbling.

I knew I sucked at bench. I didn't know HOW MUCH I sucked at bench haha.

Bench: Bar x 10 95 x 10 135 x 10 185 x 8 225 x 5 275 x 5 310 x 10

I was shocked at this result as my arms were literally shaking under the weight of 185. It's brutal, but it's a start.

Bench: 185 x 10 x 5

I wrote in my book that I was going to use 135 after my first 3 warm up sets. The 10 reps with 310 changed my tune on this.

Neutral grip chin ups: 20 reps over 5 sets. This is another weak spot in training and I will be getting better them.
