*7 Weeks from RPS Lexen Spring Fling*
Today was Pin Presses for triples in my heavy bench rotation. Right now I rotate between Pin Presses and Floor Presses for the next few weeks until I bench in my bench shirt for the last few weeks leading into the meet. I made the mistake today of setting the pins at about mid-range (6 or so inches range of motion), which is a great weak point for my raw bench (I actually press less from this point than I do my chest), but after clarifying with Todd he wants me doing a shorter ROM with a 3 inch press to work with heavier weights. This makes sense, since I don't get into my shirt for a few more weeks I need the heavier work and work on my lockout. Learned my lesson for next time..
