I am still 2 days behind but. I'll end up working out Monday and Tuesday this week and probably break Wednesday, then run out the last 5 days.
Here is tomorrow's workout if you are on track:

Have fun today boys. Great prep for the PR party on Thursday or Friday.
I have been using 260 as a TM and hit 250 pretty smoothly this morning. I'm aiming to hit 275 for the PR party.
At almost 40 years old and 160#, I'd be very happy with that

We’re in the same boat haha. I turned 40 on Saturday, also using 260 as TM but I weigh 170. Hoping to get 275 at the end of this as well.

I have to say the heavy singles moved the easiest that they ever have for that weight. I'm pretty sure I'll hit my 1RM since the 95% TM moved so quickly and under control. Which is good cause I don't have a spotter heh.

In other news I am taking the day off early from working out. Planned on breaking tomorrow but I tweaked something last night that I think will be fine in a day or two. Getting old sucks. So I've got Day 19 and this entire week to finish which will take me into next week.

Ya I topped out at 315 on the 95% yesterday and I cant tell if I slept weird or if I tweaked something but my shoulders are bothering me a bit. I think I can still deadlift/bulgarian/chinup today but I may take it easy on the close grip bench weight if it feels off.

I just want to do 2 plates, I doubt I get it because I've been pretty conservative with my training Max

I did my max out yesterday
Got 260, went for 270 and couldn't lock my right arm.
I'm restarting pool season 2 using 270 as a training max.
I'm happy to be done with benchuary. I'm excited to get back to hitting legs multiple days a week.

I crushed out 315, 325 but 335 was a GRIND. That's what my theoretical 1RM is set from adding 5lbs to bench monthly via PPSA forever tho so I can't complain.
Main thing this month is my form has really improved on the heavy bench reps.

Finished up today with new max. I went from 230 max to 255. I might have had another 5 to 10 but I didn’t have a spot, don’t want to hurt myself or risk some kind of shameful tilt/roll. Thanks to op for posting this thread. Enjoyed it and will do again next year if possible. Hopefully by this time next year I’ll be working up towards 3 plates.
