Race to a 300 Bench

In.

Im at 120 both close grip and regular. Thought id see how decline went yesterday and hit 125, didnt like it though (first time decline in at least a few years).

I’ve managed 125 off 2 board, 115x3 pin press and same floor press.

Love to get 135/300, even more so 3 plates, for any variation by new years.

3 plates is the big goal, but it’s a while off yet. Have hit 95kg (209lbs) for a single, but couldn’t reproduce that now if you asked me. Max for this cycle of Coan bench is set at 90kg, which will hopefully get me over 2 plates and closer to 3

I spent the last two years rehabbing a labral tear and cal/meniscus. Finally feel like I’m moving forward, will do a max end of december and see where I’m at.

Hit 280 touch and go a while back, been doing sub-maximal and dynamic effort bench since. Hopefully hitting 300 just after the new year(Feb?).

I hit a 310, but pause was short and ass might have flown up. Sides of my cheeks stayed on i think.

Will try for a competition legit 300 soon.

Huge arch def helps, relatively short arms too. 155 BW
