JIMGYM BENCH SESSION

Felt very guilty about missing Saturday's Crew Bench, so I decided to try my hand at paused benching, since I haven't done it since my first meet. All went pretty darn good, considering I had no liftoff of course. The 275 attempt was paused, but just couldn't power it up. The 270 lift I didn't end up pausing. The 265 I think was paused long enough. The 255 was for sure paused enough. My PR for paused bench is 265. My TnG PR is 275. All in all, I was very pleased at my first paused practice session. I simply have to get used to the pause. I am sure it will be better on Crew Day.

Paused Bench
95 X5
115 X5
135 X5
155 X3
185 X2
205 X1
225 X1
250 X1
275 X0
270 X1 *Didn't really pause this at all*
265 X1 *I think this was paused long enough*
255 X1 *Definitely paused*
225 X6 TnG Back off set

Military Press
135 X4
135 X5
135 X5

Cleans
155 X 10 Singles.

Pretty solid session Jimm. Glad everything seemed to go pretty well. Keep working at that bench and you'll get the pause down, i'm sure.

Thanks Ravi!! I am confident that with a liftoff, the 275 would have been owned.

Thanks Mab. For some reason, I have found a great groove with OHP and have been loving doing them of late. I used to hate doing them

Thanks alot Pull!! I am really going for a paused 275 at the meet, which would be a 30 lb improvement over my first meet in July.
