Paused Reverse Grip Bench Press

  • 140 x 8
  • 230 x 3
  • 320 x 1
  • 370 x 1
  • 425 x 0
    • Set up didn't feel right but went for it anyways.
    • Might have slipped on the bench, or my body slipped inside my shirt. Also, my back kinda cramped.
    • Probably a better idea to go for (bigg(er)) PR's on Monday's after a 2 day break while my back muscles are fresh instead of the day after front squats. I find leg drive and maintaining a tight arch is back cramp inducing.

Reverse Grip Bench Press

  • 370 x 1
    • Missed on the 2nd rep.
    • Haven't done touch and go benches in a while. Not accustomed to the immediate change in direction. Seems harder compared to paused bench presses.

Paused Reverse Grip Bench Press

  • 300 x 5
  • 280 x 5

Ever since I started taking strength training seriously, I was bitten by the Iron Bug. Then it burrowed under my skin and laid eggs in my heart. Now those eggs are hatching and I... the feeling is indescribable.
