ME Bench went well. Added another 10 lbs for floor presses which was nice. 365 x 1 I nailed, but 375 I got stuck about halfway up..Basically almost locked out. Had a very light spot to get her up, which means I didn't get it -> Doesn't count.
Moved over to flat bench and did a drop set of 275 x 8 easy. Felt weird after floor presses, but it was still easy. My goal with this set is to hit a heavy 5-7 reps after my ME lift. So I should be using 315 lbs, which I will next week.
Staying on the flat bench, I taped up my boards and did another round of 4 board presses. Matt wanted my to nail 350 x 5, which would be + 35 from last time.
Came close which was surprising after all the previous pressing. Did 315 x 5 easy, then got 4 solid reps with the 350. I think I could've got all 5 had I NOT had a good 2 second pause on the boards for my first rep.
Did three sets of hammer overhead presses then some JS Rows, which I got 265 for three sets of 8. Best day I've had yet for JS Rows. Reps were fast, perfect form for all three sets. Still felt pretty gassed afterwards, but to a lesser degree from my previous weeks. 3 sets of face pulls (+5) from last time, then some barbell curls ss w/ banded pressdowns (2 x 20) to get the blood flowing.
Good day. I wanted to get more weight for floor presses, but it's a lot different from all my other ME exercises. A lot harder, especially with the limited ROM and zero momentum as I pause my elbows for two seconds on the floor.
