I'm curious about the triceps question too as that's almost always where my bench stalls as well.

Good stuff buddy.

thanks mike! i'll be posting those attempts also.

thanks kuyt! i'm going to test my bench again friday, going from 275 + 10, +10 and see where that lands me.

The other option could be that you flared your elbows too soon on the way up. Either way, a 25lb pr is great!!!!

I'll see if it was a technique issue on friday i imagine. if so, i'll correct it, if not, i'll have to consider some of that specific work you mentioned.
