hey man
weigh about 213 right now ( at 5'8 " )
bench personal best is 405x3 can do 315x13 if i go for reps
lets see,,what else,,,deadlift im right there with you,,,shoulders, squats, pretty much everything else
one thing you dont ever talk about is WARMING UP
my split is chest back legs shoulders arms
i can't help but think you would see some improvements if you ramped up on your lifts
for bench press i do the bar x 12, 135x 15 225 x 15 315 x 8 365 x 5 then MAYBE i do more weight,,if not then one more set, and i do this on all the compound movements...
try it?
you dont' have to do the heaviest weight you can do every time you go in the gym, its bad for your joints and connective tissue
if you are getting in the 3-5 rep range,,,that is heavy weight, just not good on the body to do that week in and week out
lee haney - stimulate, don't annihilate
strong guy tho!
