Decline DB Bench
45 x 12
65 x 10
110 x 3 x 12
Stretched and squeezed my pecs as hard as I could with each rep. Controlled the descent and doing them this way meant I had to sacrifice some pounds to get the most out of the movement.
Incline Bench
135 x 5
225 x 5
255 x 5 x 5
Stopped each rep 1 inch above chest and didn’t fully lockout. This was to keep tension on my chest as much as possible.
Incline Hammer Bench
270 x 10
270 x 8 drop to 180 x 10
Full stretch and a hold for a couple seconds and full contraction.
Incline pushup

Set up two step benches and placed my hands on them, stretched hard in the hole.

Bent over row on the Deadlift Machine

We have a DL-type machine at Titans which I used for this. Extremely effective for this row.
