Old Time Strength

Decided that I would like to get stronger at the bent press. Within 3 months I would like to be able to do at least 1/2 bw with this lift.
It will probably be done on T and TH since these are days off from my other training.

Today
45# Oly bar
4 singles each side, failed to get low enough to lock out the 3rd rep on the right.
I think a shorter bar would make this a little easier, but that should be resolved soon enough.
I think I can feel every muscle in my back doing this move.
Much respect to the guys that put up over 300# with this move at bw of 200#. I think bodyweight for me will be a nice accomplishment. Maybe by spring 2009.
