CHEST          5/3/13

#1  BB Bench Press WITH BANDS for SPEED (no pause)

      Every 45 seconds, do 3 reps.  You will do 8 sets.  Use the same weight for all sets. 
      Go 10 lbs heavier than the weight you used on 4/21.  On 4/9, I used 32% of my 1RM 
      on the bar.  On 4/21 I used 36% of my 1RM.  Any heavier than that and I couldn't 
      generate enough speed on the bar for all sets.  For this workout I plan to use 40%
      of my 1RM.
