Week 2 Bench Day 3

Triceps, triceps, triceps. That’s the name of the game today. Three sets of eight reps at 205 for close grip bench. These were suprisingly hard on the final set, it’s all the volume that makes it difficult.
Lockouts at 275 for two sets of five…I have NO idea what these are supposed to do, this weight is no where near high enough or the reps need to be much higher.
Floor Skull Crushers for three sets of ten, these are quite different and really quite hard at about 75lbs. It’s basically a skull crusher but instead of stopping it before it hits you in the head you let it go all the way back above your head and rest of the floor for half a second before pushing it back up.
Dips for three sets of ten….er eight. It was supposed to be ten but I could only get eights off for each set so I guess I’ll work up to tens ;) these just kill me.

That’s it that’s all.

    Dips kill me too… :) I used to be really good at them but this added bodyweight makes them agony.
