Cheers to Thundy!
Training 05/06/13
Mobility: not enough, got bored. Will make up the time.
Board press
bar x lots
60x10
80x5
100x3
110x1
125x5 PB nice
120x5
117.5x5
117.5x5
117.5x5
117.5x5
Ended up drastically shortening the rests on these. Continued progress! I don't think I've ever set so many pressing PBs in succession, and yet I'm still not enthused
BOR
10x4
Just slapped some weight on the short bar until ten reps felt about right and then did 4 sets, didn't pay attention to weight
Chain dips
all the chains x8x3
Machine row
10x4
Learning a lot about benching at the moment. I'm definitely getting a very different training stimulus using the exact same movements. The only thing that I've changed is that I've worked on being able to access certain positions in my shoulder. This basically a long winded way of me saying that it's not my fault that my bench has so far sucked, but it's at least possibly true.
