Benched on Monday, I guess it's obvious from the title. I made a go at 205, and it wasn't pretty. I got it up once pretty easily, but on my 2nd rep I needed a little help. Not to mention I thought my eyes were gonna pop out of my head from pushing so damn hard. After 2 stinkin reps, I was shot. I continued to do 5 sets of bench, but they were terrible.
The positive is that I jumped to 205! The negative is that I only managed 1.5 reps, and used up every ounce of energy I had in getting those 1.5 reps. Rest of the workout I was dragging my feet.
For better or worse, here are the sets.
Monday - 3/11/13
Bench Press - 5 sets
95x10
135x8
205x2
195x3
185x4
175x6

Incline Dumbbell Press - 3 sets
60x7
60x4
55x5
Weighted Dips - 3 sets
45x6
45x5
0x5
I left the gym feeling like a sack of shit. Ate big, went to bed. My goal is to bench 225. In my mind it is a certainty that it will eventually happen.
