Hey everyone!! Figured Id post up the 4 bench PR's I hit yesterday. Heres the exerpt from the journal, and one of the pics I took after the workout. Theres 140 of them since I took mid year pics.

8-12-04 Thursday Chest, Some Upper Chest, and Abs (KILLED THAT SHIT ONCE AGAIN!! 4 MORE BENCH PR'S)
Another session of destruction today. I basically met my two main goals for the day, and some others. Hit 315 just short of 10 reps (9.5) for a 2 rep PR, 335 for 5 reps, 1.25 rep PR, 350x2.5, might be the first time I repped 350, I belieive Ive done 345x2, so another small PR, and 225x25 for two sets at the end of the routine, which is a one rep PR. I did 77 reps with 225 total, 2 sets of 25 basically, on flat bench, and a set of 15 on incline, plus the warm-up of 12. Never matched reps with 225 in 2 consecutive sets. I plan to hit 315 for 10 or more next week. My next goal is 12 reps. And Ill try 325 for 7 also. Also got some mid-year pics taken, alot of them. Ill post a thread with some of the pics later.
