I switched the bar for my primary bench press from a regular power bar to the axle today. I have done it this way extensively in the past and it really hammers some weak points on bench for me. I am continuing with my current training numbers, but may need to adjust down a little bit in the near future. Hard to judge during final exams though.

Mixed bag of fast and slow reps with more than half of them being press outs. I think this is due to my fatigue and mental stress from school though, as it is a new occurrence as of this week.
