Bench Training 3/10/06

The pause bench was easy pie today. All reps were paused for a good 2-3 seconds on the chest. I could've done 315 for 6x6 but I needed to save it for the nosebreakers. Which I will say that I am sold on this exercise being one of the best exercises to improve a raw bench press, if done with high volume. All my bench reps are pushed in a straight line with no slowing anywhere. I was going for 6x6 on nosebreakers but 165 was tough and the last set I just ran out of steam but I got 7 solid sets in of good work. I could've left the gym at this point b/c I was beat but I did my support work fast and with little rest.
