Catching up on last Friday's bro down session...

I assure you guys all of this bodybuilding work has a purpose. Although I have a good pop off my chest on the bench press, I believe it's more due to my leg drive than having strong pecs. Some of the weight I push on pectoral isolation exercises is pretty sad. If I can get my pecs stronger, I'm wondering how much stronger I could make that pop off my chest become. Stronger triceps = stronger bench, don't even need to explain that one. And regarding biceps, I've tended to slack off on hitting them consistently in my past training programs. I will consistently hit them weekly to help improve my elbow health and hope the additional size I put on will help control the negative portion of the bench better. I can't be cutting corners if I want to achieve the next goal I have in mind!
