Easy workout. Seriously I benched 405 with a close grip?! Have no idea how that happened but it went up like nothing. I'm calling this an extremely good day in lifting terms. Due to scheduling conflicts I'll be doing back work on Thursday, shirt work on Sunday and I'll adjust from there. If I can bench 622-644 at this meet I'd be happy. As long as I don't bomb I'm great :)
A little about me
I have competed in both Olympic Weightlifting and Bench-Only Lifting. I competed in Olympic Lifting as a kid. Best lifts of 255 Olympic Press, 225 Snatch, 255 Clean & Jerk. I met many of the great lifters and coaches from the 60's and 70's. After a 20-year break to serve my country I started lifting regularly again and competing in Bench-Only. Best Lift: 419lbs "equipped".
Feel free to follow along on the adventure...
