Bench workout in American fork

Lifted in American Fork with Stump, Kyle, Parker, Jeff, Manny.  Kind of a different workout since it's a week out from the meet.  Stump had bands and I was curious about trying them after watching the westside DVD's so after warming up with just the bar I did:

bar with mini bands x 3 ( felt really straing )

bar with mini bands x 4 ( ok a little better )

bar with mini bands x 5 ( ok I get it now )

135 with mini bands x 4

135 with mini bands x 5

135 with mini bands x 5  the Stump said stop with the bands

I can see the bands really helping to gain explosive-ness, and mixing it up a little.  

135 x 5 ( felt really weird after the bands )

225 x 5

225 x 2

225 x 1 ( I think my form/technique is getting better )

275 x 1 ( Stump giving commands which I completely spaced, lol )

275 x 1 ( Got the command right this time )

Finished, shoulder still felt good, time to stop.

275 felt good and solid.  After talking to the group, I think I'll open with about 265-ish and *hopefully* go up to 295 or so at the meet.   I'm guessing I'll open with 365 for deads, I still don't know what my max is on deads, the meet should be fun.
