6-13-2013 - ME Bench

This was a good day.

Warmup - Shoulders

Bench -
45x5x3
95x5x2
135x5
160x5

2-Board -
185x3
195x3
205x3
215x1
225x1x2
235x1
240x1
245x1
This is the second-highest I've ever board pressed (last record was 255; that was about two and a half years ago, shortly after I hit a 230 bench). My guess is I'll still max out around 215-220 for bench at the end of this cycle, but I should wind up a bit higher two months on from there.
I took my grip out to ring finger on the rings; this makes a massive positive difference and I'm going to keep doing it. Previous bench PR of 230 (bodyweight 170-175lbs) was with middle on the rings (as reference).

DB Bench -
65x6x5
Excellent way to close out this movement.
Next time starts with 65s again.

Pulldowns -

Repeating.

12.5x12x5
Some work here
