- Felt strong with the floor press. I tied my old PR easily. I didn't have a spotter so I opted out of doing another set. Went up strong though. For the drop sets, I figured that since I'm doing a heavy 5x5 on Thursday, it isn't in my pecs best interest to do 5 reps twice a week. Matter of fact, my pec was a little sore, and that's the last thing I need. So I figure if I have DE BENCH days, then I'll do the heavy 2x5 drop sets. If it's an RE BENCH day coming up, then I'll drop the weight down a little more and focus on higher reps.
3 Board CGB:
315 x 5
345 x 5
- Love this exercise with a close grip. Fucking smoked my triceps.

- Great day. I'm happy my strength has continued climbing even with the diet in place. Hopefully next time I'll have a spotter standing by to give me peace of mind so I can attempt a new PR.
