In the past I was doing 10x2 or 8x3 on my speed bench days. I really don't think that was enough volume for me. So, I upped my reps to 5's.

Bench Vs Mini Bands doubled over, with the red shoulder saver

I warmed up with 4 or 5 sets with band pull aparts and face pulls in between sets.

205 3x5 225 2x5 245 2x5 275 2x5

Close grip ( still w bands and shoulder saver) 3x15 @185 lbs - I really like the shoulder saver and band combo on close grip as a triceps accessory movement.

Accessory work:

Dumbbell incline press 3x25 @75 lbs

DB Tri Rollbacks 3x10 superset Band Tri pushdowns 3x30

100 total band pull a parts
