Smolov really is giving me the opportunity to nail my form on bench. It also increases my confidence/ makes me reckless as I did all my working sets without a spotter.

Post Edited: 05.10.2018 @ 15:39 PM by Terminator
A month ago I started the 3 week Smolov Bench Jr program. I used a max of 142.5 kg (5kg conservative) and ramped the weights +5kg in Wk2 and +5kg in Wk3

I quickly learnt not to do any other accessory movements for the upper body. (I pulled my tricep trying to bench the day after benching and doing multiple weighted pullups)

Not a single lift was a grind, it was volume rather than intensity. Shoulders and chest became sore, but no soreness on the triceps. Facepulls and a small amount of stretching were employed to keep me going.

(Touch and Go) Bench:

60 kg x 5
60 kg x 5
80 kg x 5
100 kg x 5
120 kg x 1
130 kg x 1
140 kg x 1 - flew

150 kg x 1 PB
152.5 kg x 1 PB

110 kg x 12 PB

150 looked like a double and 152.5 wasn't really a max effort either. Very pleased with that gain

Strict Log:

75 kg x 5,5,5





Bodyweight: 107 kg evening weight

235 kg x 5 - had one more in the tank
235 kg x 5 - ditto
235 kg x 5 - hardest set! none left

Form wise these weren't as good as my 220s/ 225s a few weeks back. But they felt easier than expected too. My best set of 5 is 240 (on an especially bendy deadlift bar, for a single set). If I can get 240 x 5 on this bar (a fairly stiff bar) then that is progress!

Back Machine:

97 kg x 12/12/12
