Favre's corner:
Monday is national bench press day and I am no exception to this rule. Got under some heavy weight, got my big air, got tight,and blasted the bar through the ceiling. I like assistance work so I did about 250 reps for my back and triceps and the ever important yokeage. Although I dread a high rep barbell complex after the main training session, it's still mandatory in my gym. Feeling my lungs burst and then my forearms blow up shortly after left me in a calm afterglow.
