Was on my own today, managed to get a spot on the 130 and 140 on bench so was safe...considering my left elbow was foo barred from Friday im very happy how the session went with no pain at all, obviously this is down to the elbow wraps but ill take whatever help i can take Wink
Must admit once im warmed up im feeling stronger on bench, hope it keeps going this way!!Cool

Another 5kg on the bench, very happy...Elbows and bottom of the biceps were achey today so it was a case of suck it and see. Elbow wraps were worn loosely for every set to combat the pain, funnily enough it was still painful until the first set on the 100 and from there it seemed to bed in nicely and the pain subsided, which is rather strange as usually the heavier you go the worse it gets Confused
Anyhow the 145 was a delight and im pretty sure there was a bit more there but i like to quit well im ahead. Nice backoff deload next week my aching joints are ready for it, the fact that my joints are aching really is a good sign that im lifting more weight and volume but on the other side of the coin i've got to listen to my pain and adjust accordingly Wink

Thanks Fletty, i must admit the last two years on the bench have been a slog, i dont think i've ever worked so hard for so little progress in anything.
But you know what, i love it...Definitely damaged in the head us lot
