I have a little philosophy.
IF YOU CANT DO A WEIGHT FOR 5 REPS, THEN YOU ARENT READY FOR THAT WEIGHT. One rep maxes are fine, but i avoid them. I fear if i go for a one rep max on bench that i could blow a shoulder out or tear a pec.
Warmup: 135x15 or 20, 185 (if you want/need to) x 10, 225 x 10, then 275 etc.
