Tuesday Bench day

Hi Everyone,

Ok, lets bench!

Bench Press- warm up sets- start light and do 5 reps, then do another set heavier with 5 reps, and keep adding weight until it feels heavy, now do 1 set of 3 reps. Time for heavy singles. Work up to a Max Effort single. This is the best you can do on this day. If you don't have spotters use safety pins set at chest height.
