Solid benching session. The single I worked up to was easy and only a PR as I've stuck to hitting at least triples. Also, my 3x3 PR is 80, 82.5, 85kg, so 3x3 at 82.5kg is around that level and I hope to hit 3x3 at 85kg next week.

Very explosive at the top - You look like you have more in the tank

Don’t let the sets last much longer than ten seconds, total. Kinda like sex with a hot chick, hit it hard for ten seconds.

You practically threw that bar back up at the top! An awesome lift
