7/7 ME Bench PR!

[Frank White]

1)Shirt bench 405x1, 455x1, 500x1, 545 dumped on stomach 585x1 PR!!!!!! 600 rammed up and lost it back over my face at the very top.
2)DB Ext 60-6x10 30 sec rest
3)CSR 225-4x10
4)Side laterals 25-3x20
5)Hammer curls 40,50,60x10
6)Standing ABs 100-4x20


This is the first max effort bench I have broken in a long time! It was a 40 pound PR, I have benched 545 a bunch of times and missed 585 at the very top. So when I dumped the 545 I said fuck it. I came here to bench 585 today and I need to take care of this now. I can't stress how important technique is, I really tried to slow things down and think about keeping my stomach high and keep tucking those elbows. I had a mental lapse with 545 and flattened out so in order to touch I had to dump the bar. My bad!

wow, great job on the 40lb pr. that's awesome bro. we are pretty close in strenght. I have bench 550 in the gym and came close to locking out 600lbs with 50lbs of chain weight. I was at a meet in lenoir two weeks ago and trying to lockout 550, when suddenly the weight just rolled right out of my hands. let me just say that 550 across the chest , falling from about 12 inches or so, didn't feel that great.
