SM Day 8--Bench for Singles

From my Log on SS:

"Bench Singles. Programming called for 225, 235, and 247.5. My third attempt at the PL meet last month was 253.3. Haha! I did 225, 265, 270, 275.


I got a new PR (with a pause at the bottom) at 275 lbs. I looked at the video and I was horrified! No arch. No contraction of the shoulder blades. No leg drive. I was displeased with myself, so I went up 2.5 pounds and used proper form. Failed, though. Still, I am pretty stoked about the progress!



Other Lifts:
DB Bench w/95s 1x7
DB OHP w/45s 2x10, 1x8."


Updated PL Total: 1096.95 ... soooo close to 1100!  Only 100 more pounds to go before I hit my 2012 goals!
