 a large fingered spastic that demolishes plant Member 89, 31706 posts SQ 260, BP 220, DL 290770.0 kgs @ 142kgs UnEq | hixxy1985 said: this is half battle sometimes aint it. Time. Things look solid though pal. Let me know how log progression goes  yeah time is an issue for me but its a good issue as it means i get more tome with my little boy well i hop eusing the same method that Oxman (Dave) uses that i will get it up to a good strict weight, th ebonus side is that i also get to work on the clean at the same time. | ||

a large fingered spastic that demolishes plant Member 89, 31706 posts SQ 260, BP 220, DL 290770.0 kgs @ 142kgs UnEq | 10/07/13 Bench 5/3/1 - Bar x 3 70 x 3 90 x 3 110 x 3 Working 130 x 5 145 x 3 160 x 6 Bench ox method 170 x 1 170 x 1 170 x 1 170 x 1 170 x 1 170 x 1 170 x 1 170 x 1 170 x 1 170 x 1 Overload with red mini band 180 x 3 190 x 2 Back off sets 130 x 10 130 x 10 Side bends 25kg x 5 x 10 each side no break between sets Captains of crush - grip work Number 3 with right under 1cm now to close it Number 1 x 10 each hand Number 1.5 x 10 each hand Number 2 x 5 each hand Number 2.5 x 2 each hand Number 3 x 5 partial closes each hand Comments Benchathon tonight, pleased with the 5/3/1 reps and introduced the Ox method so started at 170 and got on good, by the end I still felt strong and could do more, so overload with the red mini bands (like a slingshot) 180c3 felt fine and 190x2 felt good too, think over the next couple of months things should get back to a 200 territory in the bench again. Going to add their method to the Deadlift day and squat day but initially I'll alternate them each week so that I can get use to the extra volume again. Overall very pleased we how things are going and looking for award to Deadlift and some stones at the weekend. | ||

 embarrasingly poor bench Member 2684, 4043 posts SQ 240, BP 135, DL 275650.0 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq | Quality benching big guy, serious grip as well, closing the 2.5 coc is pretty damned impressive. | ||

If so I have wondered about them too Dont think so mate, i got a set a year or 2 a go, they are rated from 100-300 think they do a 350 too, ive not got as great grip but nearly managed the 300, think the CoC are a lot tougher but not had the chance to try them | ||

 my wood got all bloody Member 1001, 5711 posts SQ 240, BP 160, DL 272.5672.5 kgs @ 102.5kgs UnEq | Awesome benching, the Ox method scares me every time I see it. I'm sure you'll get the #3 very soon but that last cm is pain in the arse. Have you got any plans to cert? Also have you tried the #3.5? | ||
