Bench

  • Bar x 20 x 2
  • 145 x 5
  • 195 x 2
  • 235 x 1
  • 285 x 1
  • 325 x 1
  • 375 x 1
  • 465 x 1 - added Poker shirt - tried to touch
  • 555 x 1 - 1 board
  • 595 x 0 - bad position
  • 605 x 1 - touch, but ugly
  • 555 x 1 - put Jack shirt on
  • 605 x 2 - 3 board
  • 625 x 2 - 3 board
So it's been just over a year since shoulder surgery and I finally benched over 600 again. You probably thought I tore something again didn't you? Not today.

It looks like I'll be opening in my Jack to make sure I get an "easy" opener and possible second and then put the Poker shirt on and give it a go. It was the best bench day I've had all cycle and my elbow gave me minimal issues today too.
