Yeah, my bench is nuts. Especially considering I'm not doing nearly as much chest work as I used to do. My flat bench day is actually more focused on triceps more than my actual chest, my incline chest day is definitely more chest focused tho.

Out of my 8 workout days, I only have 4 sets dedicated to flat bench. The three I do tomorrow, and the one max rep I do at the end of my incline work. I did focus a lot of energy on bench press earlier in my lifting days, nowadays it's more about my legs and back. I've actually thrown out dumbell flat press completely in favor of rotator cuff strengthening. Which I think it partially the reason my bench press is going nuts. I don't have any shoulder pain/hinge pain any more at all, and my rotator cuff is starting to be able to handle a lot of weight stress.

Man

I set up a home gym late last year that I've been using pretty regularly. It includes a bench and a couple dumbbell trees, going up to 25 pound dumbbells. But when I bought them, my supplier was missing a few increments in weights so I was missing some sizes. IE one tree had 15 pounds, 17.5, 22.5 and 25 pounds, but missing the 20 pound. The other just had 5 pound and 10 pound, but didn't have the 2.5 / 7.5 / 12.5. I finally went and picked them up ( turns out at this level its actually 3 pound, 8 pound, and 12, they don't start 2.5 increments till 17.5 I guess...)

So I've basically just been stuck at 10 pounds for everything that I do. I've been contemplating if I should just make the jump to 15 pounds. Like on my dumbbell bench press, I can do 20 reps for 3 sets pretty damn easily with 10 pounds. 15 pounds shouldn't be a big jump. In all my previous exercise attempts, doing barbell stuff always felt pretty trivial to make 10 pound jumps, so a 5 pound jump should be no big deal

So I finally made the switch to the new 12 pounds. I am shook by much heavier and difficult these are. I can't believe it. The difference is so small, yet they feel way heavier. 9 rep sets are very doable but I'm definitely feeling the strain. If I had jumped to 15 pounds I guess I just would have exploded.

I'm in the same boat as azuarc. My upper body is just so pathetically weak, that it makes my legs seem good.(they're weak too)

I'm Canadian so none

Canada is having a federal election soon too but I'm not voting in that either because literally all the options suck in different ways.

Pretty much. WWE post-Wrestlemania 24 was the HHH show again and Orton went 0-3 against him.

Though in the long run, it worked out for Orton. Dude's tied with Trips for world titles and will probably get at least 1 (MAYBE two to tie Flair and Cena) more before retiring.

remember at I think WM24 it was when Orton beat Cena/Trips at the same time and you and I were just spazzing out going HE DID IT HE DID IT HE DID IT

can't believe that's 16 years ago bro

Back to 365 on squat. I failed on it, but I hit 360. So moving forward my one rep will be at least 365. Which I probably will hit on my next day, assuming my gains are staying the same. Looking at a 260x8, 280x5, 310x3, 365x1 for my next splits.

Excited for incline bench tomorrow. I want to temper my expectations, but I expect to atleast be able to hit 235.

And update on my dunking goal. I've gained 4 inches on my vert so far. Pretty good stuff. No where close to dunking, but still didn't expect that much progress on that either.

Four each side. So 360 from that, plus the machine.

Okay, found time for the gym today. I'm pretty sure I misremembered slightly, and it's more like 400 on the leg press, because I did four plates today and that was tough. I could have maybe added a little more if I was really trying to a one-rep max, but I also know that wasn't what I was doing for the times I'm thinking back to.

So 4:1. Incidentally my bench today was 125, and I just barely got out rep #3.

Just makes Khan look like a (bigger) knob.
