Another great work out. I was a bit surprised how good my bench was today. I have been told about trying to "bend" the bar with your hands while benching but I didn't really understand it. I have tried it in the past but it didn't feel right. Today I was reading an article describing the "Physics of the Bench Press". I noted that you should try to bend the bar towards your feet. Ah ha!

I mixed up the order of training this week. I have someone interested in learning about powerlifting and would like to train squats on Tuesday. In other words I'm being proactive and today is my Monday.
