What a huge confidence builder. Bench night was a success. I’m finally getting the grove of using a bench shirt and am excited to see how far I can go with it. The best part is no shoulder or elbow pain!
I hit an all -time PR tonight of 255 lbs to a one board, that is progress.

So that in a nutshell was three hours in the hot gym with a great crew. I’m feeling stronger and more confident in my bench. I’m coming up on 10 weeks out of my next competition and feeling great. I’m still waiting on my new Metal Bench shirt to be made and shipped and then I will have another new experience breaking in that new shirt. Always a school day, never stop living, learning, passing on.
