On one of my chest-days at the gym I decided to go ahead and try 107.5kg benchpress. It was'nt easy but I did it and I thought why not try 110kg? So I did, and I suceeded. I needed Shaun's help to spot me in case I drop it but it went okay. I was still concerned though... I decided not to reflect it on my blog, since I wasn't sure if it was a one-time thing or I really can do it. The next time we hit gym with Shaun I went straight for a 110 and just for the sake of proving it I recorded it. Now I'm confident about posting that I did bench my goal, stepping to the next part. I think the reason why I could do it was the big change we decided to make in our workouts. Instead of the regular 4sets/8-12reps we are going for 10/3reps which is basically rather strength training than bodybuilding (there is a difference :)) Anyway, I hit my goal and my next one is to bench 112.5kg in about a month or two. It's harder than one might think but I'll do my best :)
Here's the video of my benching my last goal:
