I just started a new job and, being swamped at work, I have no time for the volume-intensive bodybuilding workouts that I planned to do this season. I’ve decided to then focus on doing Gym Jones WODs with a two-week lag. The workouts are short and quality-specific: strength, endurance, power, agility, etc.
Today was bench press:
15 x 45#
12 x 50#
10 x 55#
8 x 65#
5 x 95#
3 x 115#
1 x 135# (fail)
Then: 10 x 5 x 95#
Notes:
— I missed 135# but I know I’ve hit this before. I was losing focus on my form during the warm-ups so I attribute it to this. I would lose focus on form, then start overanalyzing my technique during the lift. Before I new it, I had to get help from someone to pull the bar off my chest. I pinned form on the 10 sets at 95# and the weight just sailed off me.
