Attempted floor press
Had to put a plate under my arms and back to not hit the pins
Worked up to 275x2
Screw this

Lol, that’s not a bad floor press dude. It’s a lot tougher than bench.

Nah I was cool with the weight, I was just pissed about the set up I had to use. The racks at my gym all have like an open top and on the ground so when I was pressing I kept hitting the bottom pins

thanks man. I have decent speed at 70-80% work but anything over that and the bar just moves way too slow and I miss at my chest. I have 0 ideas on how to fix it, other than getting a stupidly strong back.

Sometimes that seems to be the way it goes.
BTW, I bench on Wednesday. I’m not sure what your schedule looks like (class and training wise), but my last class on Weds ends at 12:50, so if you happen to be free around then, we could hit up a session together if you want.

then I did a crap ton of hip mobility and shoulder mobility stuff.
Rolled out my hammies, back, and tri’s on a barbell. seriously this works wonders.
Also had another dream where I benched 580 at 220. I’m so conflicted on this. I really want to hit a low 400’s bench at 181. Right now I’m just not willing to do/able to afford what I would need to do to hit 580 at 220.
