11-13-13 – Bench Press

It felt great as I walked through the doors of HPF today! Nobody was in at the moment and I had a few minutes to myself to warm-up and get the right mindset. All warm-up sets felt good, and I was confident going into my working sets. By that time some other members had arrived, and did what all HPF members do, MOTIVATE. With the weight loaded, I moved into my last working set, and hit 160 lbs for 8. I went for a ninth rep, but couldn’t quite get it there; I required some help from spotter. The rest of my workout went swimmingly well, and I came out of the gym feeling accomplished.
