okay… sorry I will try this again, thank you for the patience. I was doing my 5/3/1 sets on the bench press and that particular day the most weight I used was 185 lbs. Then I moved onto assistance work and for the close grip bench press I used 205 lbs. Does doing an assistance exercise with more weight than the main exercise defeat the whole purpose of 5/3/1?[/quote]

Nope. Just means you are doing 205 pounds on a close grip.

First off, how many reps did you get 185, and how many did you get 205?

10 with 185, 6 with 205
