Thanks for the input, Riddick..
I'm TRYING to stick to a "Starting Strength" regimen..
ie. up the weight by 5lbs EVERY workout..
And from what I read in the Rippentoe book and from comments here, your w/u sets shouldn't be anywhere near what your working sets are.. That's why they're so low..
But yeah, I'll try to start a little lighter, go a little heavier, and do one more that's heavier, still..
It's just that my chest (more accurately, my shoulders) gets tired quick, so I try to get to my working sets asap..
As for benching 3 WO in a row.. I just get pissed when I can't do a weight increase (can't do my last reps cleanly), and I want to get back on the horse asap..
But yeah, I should start alternating with mil. presses again..
