Pretty much exactly what you were. i thought of opening at 120 but thats just too light. either 127 or 130 on second. As long as i get something around/ over 130 ill be happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monarchking Posted May 13, 2016 Report Share Posted May 13, 2016 I've gone 115/122/130 and 117/125/132 . Numbers can be a mental game too. Haha I'll never usually bench 120 when working upto Max's etc, always just skip thst number, 130 is a mental f*ck for me also. This is national bench or South Island bench? Raw and single ply?

HarryB Posted May 13, 2016 Report Share Posted May 13, 2016 I just read some constable in Timaru might lose his job for punching a teen who spat in his face? And the other constable who was with him and told on him is getting lauded as a hero. That sucks!! Were you either a)the spitter b) the puncher or c) the dobber!

I also did 130x2 not too long ago. I lift with a whippier bar at home which i think is throwing me big time. i have a 29mm power bar on its way which should help maccaz and Monarchking 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Working on speed and form on bench. heavier than speed weight but all moved well, the 110 moved almost the best of all of them. Inclines were tough. used a slightly wider grip on these. not strong on incline. will work at these Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
