Killing it
Friday
Strolled in late thinking I was training solo and my buddy had been waiting for me to arrive lol. We both ended up killing it on bench press. Missed (just cos I couldn't do it) spotting a bodybuilder who had, last Friday, done 3 sets of 6-8 reps with 80kg/176lbs dumbbells on a flat bench (impressive stuff).
Close Grip Bench Press
140kg/308lbs flew up so quickly I thought we'd misloaded it. Worked to 172.5kg for 3 sets x 3 reps which may be a set/rep PB (I remember a vid of me doing 3 reps but not multiple sets of 3)
Low Cable Row
to 20p (eqv to 120kg/264lbs) x 20 reps med width handle
MiraFit 60mm Handle work
to set up +
LH: 85kg x 2 sets x 2 reps and 1 x 3 (1st set was hard - killed the last set)
RH: 87.5kg x 3 sets of x 3 solid reps
Bwt: 316lbs

That is an awesome picture. Crazy impressive bench press. That belt looks hardcore.

Friday
Early to gym, (and my buddy was still already there ha ha). Possibly heaviest by volume with the working weight bench session ever. Slightly off at the end possibly as a result of chatting with a competing bodybuilder.
Close Grip Bench Press

s/s
Iso Lever Mid Rows
to 140kg/308lbs x 5 reps
MiraFit 60mm Handle

LH: 82.5kg x 3, 2 and F reps (see too much chatting here as I was also up against the clock at this point)
RH: 87.5kg x 3 x 3 reps
