225x28,16
28 is a three rep combine bench PR. I was going to do my normal 20 and 20, but I had more in me so I kept up with it. Next week I'll do 225 for 20 and 20 to earn the right to move up.
EZ bar...
Don't be too alarmed, while it's unfortunate and likely avoidable in many cases, these doubts and pains are a normal part of meet prep. A lot of it will bug you through the cycle, but that week off before the meet clears a lot of pain. Stay the course, you can do this.
Did my post squat stuff. Lower body was sore. Helped set up reverse bands for a guy benching, so I decided to join in on that.

It's crazy, man. My body never ceases to surprise. Can never predict or account for the rate of gains in the short term, but in the long-term it always regresses back to the mean. I'm really enjoying my day in the sun, though.

Swole as shyt today. Still a good session. Bought high volume this weekend and the pump got too real lol...
Sounds like a heinous time. But it also sounds like you were more successful than my attempt. I took second to last at my comp. You could have gotten big ups if They didn't screw you with The dumbbell, rolling thunder, and the farmers walk.
Did the post squat, hung upside down, six sets of pullaparts and chest supported row/shrug superset and got out. Hip felt decent today, Very out of character for the day after sumo pulls, but the post squat stuff knocked something loose in there and now it hurts like hell. I expect it will feel...
