Yeah? A doctor somewhere out there is just waiting for guys like you to come along and re-plaster torn pecs.

I know it sucks. I can probably bench 305 right now so i'm real close to 3 plates. I need to start cutting now though because i'm looking to drop 20 pounds by the start of summer. I might start reducing calories slowly so that maybe I can still gain strength for a little bit because I restrict too hard.

How do you get to 289?  Does your gym offer 1 or 2 pound plates?

I did that too today before I benched 455 for 8, 550 for 5 and 620 for 3, because I didn't want to go too heavy today.

These wouldn't happen to coincide with 585lb 1/4 rep squats in a smith machine would they?

I've seen a guy tear his pec while doing broom twists to warm up. He was just that big and tight, that he moved the wrong way and "Pop." :o
