Bench. Week 3 Cycle 6

Spotter is bored. 
Still under the weather today; I felt good enough to get my sniffly self into the gym, though. Today called for 245lbs for my final set. This time last month I did 240 x 6, so I wanted those six reps again today. I got them, but my form was sloppy and my endurance just wasn't there. I'll blame the sickness, for now.

Assistance work stayed the same:

  • 70lb dumbells for flat bench: 5 sets of 15 reps.
  • 100lb dumbells for rows: 5 sets of 10 reps.

Week 3 bench progress for 6 cycles thus far has been:

  • Cycle 1: 220x2
  • Cycle 2: 225x5
  • Cycle 3: 230x7
  • Cycle 4: 235x7
  • Cycle 5: 240x6
  • Cycle 6: 245x6

Goals for today:

190x5
220x3
245x1

Lifted:

190x5
220x3
245x6
