I am still nursing the tweaked shoulder so don’t expect big weights for now.
** Decline Barbell Bench Press **
– 45.0 lbs x 10 reps
– 135.0 lbs x 10 reps
– 135.0 lbs x 10 reps
– 185.0 lbs x 10 reps
– 225.0 lbs x 10 reps
– 225.0 lbs x 10 reps
– 225.0 lbs x 10 reps
The working sets were 3ct down, pause one inch above the chest and a 3ct up. My shoulder is still not ready for anything heavy so I have to be a little creative with my training until it is.
– 135.0 lbs x 12 reps
These were performed in the same way as the last sets but with a 5ct pause instead of a slight pause above the chest.
All sets were stopped right before lockout for maximum tension on the pecs.
** Flat Dumbbell Bench Press **

– 75.0 lbs x 13 reps
– 75.0 lbs x 13 reps
I did this in a hybrid fly/press type of movement.

The flys and the pushups were supersetted.

– 75.0 lbs x 8 reps
– 75.0 lbs x 10 reps
– 95.0 lbs x 8 reps

Super wide grip, out to the end of the bar and pressed from chest to head. Little harder than you think.
