225 x 22 bench press

Still about 185 lb.

**** felt incredibly light in my hands when I unracked, I knew before the first rep I was going to PR. Previous best was 20, which I just got like a month ago. I had been stuck at 17 reps for a couple years.

"The flowers bloom, then wither... The stars shine and one day become extinct. This earth, the sun, the galaxies and even the big universe, someday will be destroyed. Compared with that, the human life is only a blink, just a little time. In that short time - people are born, laugh, cry, fight, are injured, feel joy, sadness, hate someone, love someone. All in just a moment. And then, are embraced by the eternal sleep called death."

Usually bench twice a week, just go in and work up to heavy strength sets. Max sets of 5, 3, 2, etc etc.

Might only do one or two actual working sets but good volume while working up to it. I.e. something like 225x6, 275x5 300x3, 325x3, 335x3, 340x3 if I'm going for a max triple.

Accessories are usually backoff sets around 225-275, CGBP, cable flies, DB presses, various tricep isolations.

Yeah spot on, I got 365 a few weeks ago but it was ugly. Butt popped up and couldn't control it down to my chest. I might be able to hit it a little better now.

Repped for the set. My 225lb best is 19 reps (after a week off). I was much heavier than 185 at the time though.

It's really a great job, brother!

Sky is the limit considering you have still a long life with full potential ahead of you.
