Bench

Tues, 5 June 18

Incline Bench Press: 95x4x8
Bench: 135x2x10, 185x4x5
DB Row: 60x10, 70x3x10

Fairly simple day.  I had to wait for a bench, so I did some incline bench work.  I tried the decline bench with just the bar, but the path is super weird.  I probably shouldn't have done the incline bench with the barbell, as it made the normal bench really weird at first - my groove was off.  Anyhow, the sets of 185 were quite hard.  I couldn't actually knock out 5 without resetting, but the resets were under 10 seconds.  So, like 3 reps, reset, 2 reps.  My DB row was pretty decent.  I'm trying the variant where you don't put one leg on the bench, both are on the floor.  It makes it easier to keep the back flat and is very stable.  (Supposedly it helps to prevent hernias).

Anyhow, I'm going back to basics.
