340lbs Bench Press PR, One Drop Method, Fixing Your OHP, Weight Gain and Weight Loss Tips

July 1, 2012 — Leave a comment

Well, I guess Smolov Jr for bench press works!

I hit a +10lbs PR (video here). I was hoping for 350lbs, but settled for 340lbs instead. I should have attempted 345lbs...maybe next week.

Anyways, here are a few helpful articles I came across lately:

  1. The One Drop Method by Frank Butty
  2. Fixing Your Overhead Press (and using your biceps in the eccentric portion of the OHP) by Paul Carter
