Notes
My body felt completely wrecked going into this workout due to a long day out on the lake wakeboarding Saturday. So with that said, I am pumped I was able to work up to 355 for three triples on a day I was clearly less than 100%. The reps were all a little bit slower than I would have liked, especially on the third set, but on a day like today, I'll happily take that performance.
This was the first time I have ever benched with the buffalo bar and they are brutal! The added range of motion at the bottom puts a lot of extra stress on the pecs. Not to mention the thickness of the bar makes for a good forearm workout. I can see a lot of benefit coming from these, so I will definitely be adding them to my workouts every couple weeks as an assistance exercise.
