BENCH PRESS

95x5x2
160x5x3

%$#@! Had to get a spot again for my last 2 reps..

I'll have to break it down to 140 again and start over, I guess.. :(
2-1-09 you did 145X5X3
2-2-09 you did 150X5X3
2-7-09 you did 160X5X3
2-9-09 you did 140X5X3 with a different grip
2-11-09 you did 160X5X3

So...you should be increasing 5lbs each week. You skipped 155lbs. Then you did a variation of what you had been doing, and then did a weight that you had already done. If the 95X5X2 was all you did to warm up/acclimate yourself to your working sets, then I'm not at all surprised that you missed reps. You haven't even been increasing the weights each week by 5 lbs...it seems more like every training session and sometimes you go up by 10lbs. You missed those weights today because you didn't warm up properly, and also because you're not following your program.
