Started with bench. Warmed up, hit the bar, 95, and 135 for warmups, then loaded up 185. Basically, I just tried to focus better on being tight and moving the weight fast and smooth as possible. It went very well. First set of 9 was tough, but I probably had a 10th rep in there. Same with the second. Third set went well, I moved fast and efficiently. 9th rep was tough, but good enough that I went for a 10th, and just couldn't get it. A little bit of a bummer, but hey it's one rep more than last week, and progress is progress.
Next, strict press went well. I wasn't feeling that great cause mu triceps were exploding from the benching. But the weight felt pretty light today. Hit the bar, 95, then straight to 140 x 5, 155 x 3, and finally 175 x 3. It was a very solid triple. Probably would have failed the 4th rep, but the third was NOT incredibly hard. Really happy with that! It's a PR, nothing earth shattering, but I think the fact that I can still PR on fridays, after SO much benching and tired triceps, means that I am getting seriously strong. After, backed off and hit 155 x 7 and 140 x 9.
Then, hit 2 x 15 kipped pullups. Real easy.
Last, just did some curls. Again, strength seems to progress very slowly for my bench... sso my thought is, maybe if I just get bigger my bench will go up faster haha. Anyways, hit the 20's for 15, then 25's for 15, then the 20's for a set of 20 and my biceps were exploding.
