*Rest as needed between sets.
COACH'S NOTES
Today's bench session is focused on lifting a moderate/heavy weight that you can control with good form for 8 reps.
Perform a 90* pec Opener stretch for 30sec on each side. Don't apply a lot of pressure here just enough so you feel a slight stretch.
With an empty barbell or light set of dumbbells perform 10-12 reps before adding weight.
Focus Points:
-Keep 5 points of contact for the entire range of motion:
-Left foot, right foot, butt, upper back, and head all in contact with either the floor or bench.
-Strive for consistency when the bar makes contact with your lower chest.
-Keep your shoulder blades retracted down and back like you're pinching a pencil between them.
