Face it... Muscle size is a limiting factor for most (e.g my legs). Without muscle tissue you can't contract with enough force to move the load. No matter how efficient you are... In other words technique only goes so far... Need to get my legs bigger !!!
Most of you need to get your chest bigger

You could spend less time on bench and just maintain it and spend the time doing more squats and get your legs up

Today was an interesting workout. Signed up for an ironman competition for April. Decided to go in today and test my current push pull strengths... results were mixed.
Admittedly I have slacked off sense the meet, I drank over the weekend, and I'm in PCT so I honestly couldn't expect to perform at above or at my 100% in contest. That being said I can't bitch and I have until April to get my shit together.
My deadlift was better then expected 435lbs considering I only pulled like 440 or 445 at the meet

My bench was horrible today I couldn't get 415 which was shocking, but hey 405 is 97.59 % of my competition max. So I guess 405 is my starting point again
Few things to consider here... Well you can't be benching at 100% all the time so lets see how I do next Sunday and gauge from there

But for now 840lbs is my starting point
