Up in Michigan for the weekend so I didn’t train yesterday. I’ve been feeling pretty good and my weight has been on a steady increase. At this point I’m pretty sure I’m just going to walk in for my next meet in the 242 class. It’ll be nice not having to cut and I should be walking around at about full weight so the strength gains I make during the meet cycle should carry over to the platform better than they have in the past. For today I just did some benching for volume. Here is what I did….
Foam rolling, stretching, band pull aparts, reverse grip dumbbell press
Barbell bench
Bar for a few
135 for 5 reps
225 for 5 reps
225 plus 2 chains per side for 5 sets of 5 reps
Behind the head lat pull downs
100 for 5 sets of 20 reps
Arnold presses
50’s for 4 sets of 12 reps
Horizontal military press
10’s for 3 sets of 15 reps
Things felt good today. Benching went well and the bar moved rather quickly.
