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.

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.
