BENCH PRESS Training

Today's workout was a bit of an experimental session because I am doing a brand new exercise: Banded Pin Press Bench Press. I was way off with my estimations of how much weight I would be able to handle. I expected to be able to sling 100 kgs for sets of 10 reps and I was off by about 9 reps haha!

There are a few things to make note of:

I have been finishing my BP workouts with some drop sets for many many months now. I am going to be switching things up a bit. I am going to set the bar at 100 kgs and I will superset BP and Flat DB Press for 2-3 sets. I will take 100 kgs for doubles or triples and then I will do DB Presses for 15-25 reps. If this goes well, I will replace DB Presses with Banded Push-ups on the Giant Sets.

The next time this workout rolls around, I will add reps to the #1 BPPBP and then when I shift to BP I will Rest-Pause the sets with 100 kgs before doing the Superset thingy I detailed earlier.
