Workout Number 1

Today's Workout for Chest:

135 x 10
225 x 3
335 x 3 (Assited with reps 2 and 3)
345 x 3 (Assisted with reps 2 and 3)

All in all felt pretty good for missing the last 8 days of workouts. 345 felt quite heavy though, need to start getting used to this type of weight.

The Journey begins

This will be a journal of my progress towards reaching a max bench press of 405 pounds. I am looking to reach this goal in 6 months time period. My current max is around 350 or so. I will be documenting diet, training schedule and weight.
