ME Bench Day

Great day today, I benched my old 2rm of 116.5kg for 5 sets across! Very happy with that, I then did a single with 120kg. I moved to chain bench after for sets of 4 I just couldn’t get the 5th rep! and finished with some chins and delt work. Real Good day but my freakin forarms are giving me hell, its really affecting my confidence benching cos it hurts most when I lower the bar the most. I cheated and used 2 thin bandages around each elbow on the last 2 sets, that seemed to help a bit.

Is the pain in your forearms from straining your wrists back while benching? I noticed I tend to do this without realizing ... no pain because of it yet but as the weight builds I could see it potentially being a problem down the road.
