Saturdays' ME bench workout

Benching with Stump, Jeff, Moosie, Parker, Manny and Lindsey.

2 sets of 10 with just the bar
135x13
135x10
225x5
225x4
275x3
300x1 ( stump had to help a little )
300x1 ( still not quite, but really close, URG )
275x2 ( felt light after the 300 )

I then did 5 sets of overhead presses on the smith machine with 185, and a few sets of tricep extensions.

I was hoping to get the 300 today, it was really close, but not quite.  I think with the intensity at a meet, I would likely get it, based on how 285 felt at the last meet and the increase in my benching lately at the gym.

Overall a good workout, with the same positive energy as usual.  Good luck to everybody who's going to the meet next week.
