Bench Focus - Back on Track

Bench Press
11 reps @ 60 kgs
8 reps @ 80 kgs
5 reps @ 90 kgs
3 reps @ 110 kgs
3 reps @ 120 kgs equal to best effort, certainly a PR for 2012!
5 reps @ 100 kgs

Floor Press
5 reps @ 110 kgs

CGBP
10 reps @ 60 kgs
10 reps @ 70 kgs
9.5 reps @ 80 kgs failure!
4 reps @ 90 kgs

Kroc Rows
left 9 reps @ 70 kgs TPR
right 5 reps @ 70 kgs forgot the chalk, lost my grip
left 7 reps @ 70 kgs TPR
right 6 reps @ 70 kgs TPR

Triceps Pushdown
12 reps @ 45 kgs
7 reps @ 45 kgs
7 reps @ 40 kgs
8 reps @ 35 kgs

AND with that, I'm pretty much back to my strength levels of last year. All my lifts are looking good, except for log OHP, which is down by 5 kgs... not a major concern for now.

With bench press, I've only had a couple of better efforts in November - those being 125 kgs for 2 and 135 kgs for 1 (at my first ever comp), around the same period.

I keep thinking I've done 120 for 4 at some point, but can't be bothered really looking for it. Eh, does it matter? The important thing is - I'm back!! And I can only get stronger from here. Stronger than I've ever been before. Ever.

Deadlifts scheduled for tomorrow night. Awesome.
