Cycle 4 Week 3 Bench

Trained at 1100am today. Finally a day off and a decent sleep last night.

I rode the airdyne bike for 10 mins with elbow sleeves on to get my elbow tendons warmed up good. Also some 1-2" range of movement rope curls for the elboes and some light DB raised to get the shoulders warm.

BB bench - empty bar - X25, 135X15, 225X10
Work sets - 270X5, 305X3, 340X3.
All reps were paused. The pause on the last rep with 340 was probably questionable but it went. 340X3 paused is a PR for me. 340 used to be my 1RM touch and go, so definitely making progress with the bench.
Chose the boring but big option to keep going. 5X5 with 75%.
BB bench - 275X5X3, 275X4.
Felt some elbow pain on the 4th set so I stopped. I havent had any elbow tendon pain for a while so I didnt want to make it worse.
Finished up with
Cable Crossover - 45X20, X15, X15.
Nice pump in the chest after the crossovers.

Last workout of Cycle 4 tomorrow with squats then a deload week. I got my new SBD knee sleeves today so I'm excited to try them.
