Barbell bench

worked up to 225 for 5 sets of 3 reps

 

deficit bench

135 for 5 sets of 3 reps

I put the deficit bench in my sessions occasionally to help keep my shoulders healthy and to help stretch the pecs to help prevent a pec tear while benching. These are never done heavy or treated like speed work.

 

assisted dips

50 pounds of assistance for 2 sets of 8 reps

30 pounds of assistance for 5 sets of 8 reps

 

assisted chins
