What’s your Bench?
Found this short post written by Doug Chapman of Hyperfit USA. I had the good fortune of meeting Doug (and goofing off) at a recent seminar. Good guy. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.
Mobility: shoulders, internal and external rotation.
Benchpress 5/3/1+ at 75%, 85%, and 95%.
Then:
50 power snatch for time, 55/75.
Some fun things heard the previous week:
“Is this for time?”
“What is a snatch?”
“Ok, if my one rep max is xx pounds, I take 90% of that. Then I go to my chart and calculate…”
“No blowing bubbles while moving weight!”
“What weight should I use.”
“I looked down and saw that I was on fire, so I put it out and kept going.”
Quite and entertaining week, and it’s only Tuesday. Great job everyone, so far.
