Some small PR's on the Flat Bench today

Hey everyone! Its not much, but I hit a few small PR's today. My best on the bench with 315 is 5 reps, this was also my best with 300. Today I hit 300 for 6 reps, the last rep was ugly towards lock-out with one side extended and the other side fighting to come up, I twisted my torso a bit and got it. I didnt end up using the belt for the later sets, didnt seem to help. This was after a good number of sets also, so I still think on a good day I got 8-9 with 300 no problem. I only got 315 for 4.5 reps, just short of 5, today and 320 for 3.5 reps. Not sure if it counts as a true PR since 315x5 is probabally like doing 300x8 haha. But anyway I struggled it out and was happy to break thru something today. Then,under Brutes advice, I did rack lock-outs at the end of my workout. I was burnt out and still managed 425 for 3 reps and 445 for 1 rep, failed 465 today. These were all PR's since Iv never tried rack lock-outs before. ThanX for all the encouragement everyone! I expect more PR's next week!
 
One more thing....It was real tough,but I followed everyones advice and didnt even attempt a max. I did a shitload of sets though haha

Damn Brute! Your the best man! ThanX. Youve helped me so fucking much! I did multiple sets of 315 and 300 today, despite the large number of heavy sets I never went below 3 with 315. It felt real nice brute!!! Damn! I love it man! 445 wasnt too heavy at all and I was moving it for atleast 3 inches. Nice feeling! 500 it is! I got a new goal now!Congrats on your 525 bench! Fucking shit!!!!!!!!!!!!! ThanX brother!

ThanX brother! Cant wait to hit that shit! I know when I do, I still wont be satisfied! What do you think that translates to on the bench? Also would a double denim work for me, with no previous shirt experience? You got me contemplating that shit! ThanX

i'm not sure..everyone has tried inzer and karin double denim and heard different. everyone feels better with inzer while others are about karins. all i know is that its workin for me but with no previous shirt experience i'm not sure if you can get used to the marks they leave..oh wait a minute..you have piercings!!:FRlol: you can handle the pain!! as far as doing lockouts are concerned..doing 500 will make 405 feel like a fuckin joke. you'll see what i mean!! tb

remember..those are lockouts brotha...its pointless to wear a shirt on those but that moving 700 at the highest pin setting where i'm moving it about 1-2 inches...i've done 705 on wide-grip lockouts which is 2 inches lower but moving it at the range. tb

Damn Brute!! So you can lock out 300lbs more then your raw bench? Shouldnt I be locking out 665 then? Guess it differs from person to person Fucking Nice!

it does..my lockouts have always been very strong. you'll have different strengths too..probably opposite from mine. just focus on that 500 and don't worry about the 700 yet!! thanks brotha. tb

Congrats beast.

NOT maxing every week will allow you to grab that 405 your looking for. 1 mans opinion.

Nice job man!!!!!!!!
