I'm feeling so much better than I did the last few weeks.
warm-ups
indian club swings, reverse grip dumbbell press, band pull aparts
bench - raw
225 plus 2 chains per side for 10 sets of 3 reps
fatbell tricep extensions
35's for 6 sets of 8 reps
lateral raises - chest supported
5 sets of 8 reps
reverse hypers
90 for 2 sets of 15 reps
The bench was actually moving better at the end of the sets than at the beginning. I loosened up and got some good blood flow during the first few sets and it really felt good at the end. I guess that is a sign of aging.
I also got a new pair of briefs today. I'm replacing my Metal Ace size 46 with a size 48. I've had the 46s since the 220 class and they have has the seams cut off the legs and the inside seams trimmed to allow me to move over the years. I think the new larger size will be exactly what I need for support and will allow me to get to parallel.
