360_2[1]My buddy was back from his trip so I agreed to join him in a bench press session, despite just doing the movement on Monday.  You may recall me whining about feeling weak during Monday’s session, I could barely get 225 off my chest and my reps at lower numbers were down at least 25% as well.

Well for some reason 72 hours made a big difference in my pushing strength.  My numbers were markedly better at every step of the ladder.  Who knows?
