Great session.  205X4 is a Rep PR on bench and my phase goal for this weight, so I can move up next week.  Benching was strong this week, and I possibly could have gotten a 5th rep.  But I'm glad I was able to almost match it on my 2nd set instead.

As I noted above, my benching was strong this week, and this 135X10 on cambered bench came out of NOWHERE.  The other 2 sets fell back to earth, though.  Obviously, a big all-around PR.

Moved back to the shallower incline, and got some good reps in.

Added some weight to the dips.  Didn't want to labor on with low reps on every set, though, so I did a drop-set on the 2nd, and then backed off to body-weight for the third.  236 (BW+25)X11 is an all-around PR.

Upped the reps a bit on the ab wheel.
