If you're trying to increase your bench press, you should do them before the crossovers. If you're doing a pre-exhaust, then leave it as is.

when I got pinned....it was a couple minutes before some guy walked past.
"um..hey bud...little help here, please?"
< notes from self: Cannot roll the bar towards your face when on the decline bench press. Your neck gets in the way..>

I hate it when that happens!! Did anyone step in and help or did you have to roll the bar off you?

Geezz - It takes me longer to do my first two exercises than it takes to do your entire workout!


Hope you had a good day Steve? How is work going?

At least you didn't get pinned working out alone in your basement. That will put you off heavy weights for quite a while....not that I've done it or anything....

Long day today. Went to an HTST one day school at Michigan State University. Only Emma-Leigh might find this interesting .

So much for not getting sore from this type of workout. I'm feeling lots of pain today from yesterdays push day. Even in my lats and bis, I guess that's from the face pulls. My chest is sore right up to the collarbone .

As for getting pinned. No, nobody offered to help. Don't know if anyone saw, and I didn't ask. I actually had the right side racked, but couldn't get the left side locked out and racked. So I rolled it to my abs, tilted the bar to the ground on one side, removed the weight for my dropsed, deadlifted it back to the rack and did my next set right away.

Hope you all had a great day!
