Done. Pretty happy with today for sure. Workout was done practically fasted, I had one banana three hours before the workout, and besides that the only thing I had was water and a caffeine pill. I think I could have gotten the 265 if I hadn’t done all the work sets beforehand.

Haha. That’s the goal.
Not sure if I mentioned, I was benching with a thick bar. Not really sure how that affects bench though. I had it loaded with a plate before I thought about it, then said screw it and didn’t switch bars.
Ok, here are the vids. In order: 215x5, 225x5, 255x1, and 265xfail.
How are the wrist straps working out for you? I was thinking of picking some up. My bench is generally pretty low in terms of weight that it doesn’t really warrant it, but at the same time I do get a bit of tendinitis in my left wrist so I should probably just man up and get some…

I really like wrist wraps. I don’t know what it is, but my wrists have always seemed to be really weak. If I bench or do OH pressing without wrist wraps, my wrists will ache for days. I try to only wear them for BB flat and some tricep lifts though, I don’t want to build up too much of a dependence on them.

Lol. Summer school. 8 to 10 week classes, pretty much just a condensed class. A whole fall or spring semester jammed into less time.

thanks! Will do
