Week 2 day 2 Reps bench

Tuesdays are usually my rest days but since this week(ending of the week) will be quite busy i had to find a way to not miss my training and keep at it. The end result was to train back to back to back, deads on monday, bench on tuesday, and squat wednesday to leave thursday and friday empty so i can do what i need. This makes it a bit tough since it'll wear me out since i wont have enough recovery time in between. Still, it wont hold me back on giving it my all as i have a set goal to meet come january 11 and i wont have any obstacles deviate me from it. 

Reps, reps, and reps today for bench this time. The goal for today was to work up to a challenging weight for 8 reps. 

Flat Bench Press
In order to bring my bench up i will be doing more paused reps than touch and go through out my bench days.
1x10@bar
1x10@135
1x10@185
1x8@225
1x8@265 - New PR for paused reps
Every rep was paused for 2 seconds. I may increase the pausing to 3-4 seconds on my following bench days or i may just keep it at 2 seconds. It'll depend on how i feel that day.

Incline Bench Press (grip was in between close and medium grip)
1x12@135
1x9@185
3x4@225 - the goal was to get a 12 rep total

2x3@225
1x10@185

Pin Press/Dead Press
1x10@bar
1x6@135
1x3@185
1x2@185 - Unable to lock out the 3rd rep and it really tired out my triceps
1x0@185 - Exhausted triceps lead me to be unable to press it 2" past the pins =(
1x5@135 - struggled a bit but fought through

Tricep Press downs
100 reps - 20@45, 20@55, 20@65, 20@75, 10@70, 10@65

Cable Pull downs(abs)

Aside from the gym being packed and the benches being taken up by the bench jockeys I was still able to get a good training session. 

Note: peak 400 taken at arrival of gym. im loving this stuff so far. Gluta-tren will be taken prior to bed, Same, im loving it too. I have the orange creme flavor and it's great.

Note 2 : song of choice was AC/DC - TNT
