Training: 19th July

I had a great training session today, mainly because I kind of got a bench press PR.  I say kind of because I have actually benched more than 85kg before, but now I try to execute all my benching "competition style" with a pause on the chest until stationary (and sometimes a full 2 second count).  My previous personal best of 91kg was touch and go.

Bench Press
20kg x 10
40kg x 8
50kg x 5
60kg x 3
70kg x 1
72.5kg x 1
75kg x 1
77.5kg x 1
80kg x 1
82.5kg x 1
85kg x 1
70kg x 3, 5 sets

Squats
20kg x 10
40kg x 8
60kg x 5
70kg x 5
80kg x 5
90kg x 5
100kg x 5

My knee was feeling a little iffy on the warmup sets and I was wearing the wrong shoes so I decided to just leave my squats at the 100kg.  I was pretty pleased with how it felt actually, I'd rate it about 8/10 difficulty.
