    Nice didn't even think about the Suana! I'm actually going to give this a go tonight with DB chest press. Maybe pop 200mg of TNE to try and make a PR.

    When I get stuck like that I move right into a 10x3. And let me tell you bro it tears my azz up big time but I have not missed yet with it.
    10 sets of 3 reps. I am always amazed at how well this works for me.

    First I've ever heard 10x3... I could see that helping with the larger weight working sets for sure.

    Warm up with something realy light10 reps then I will bump to medium range 2 reps just to get my body ready for the heavy lifts. i do that every other week start heavy and work down then the next week start light work up.

    Went at it a little different tonight... 5mins sauna time with stretching and shoulder warm up. 185x10, 275x10, 315x9, 335x4 pretty spread out on my reps and weights but the new advice put a new PR in my book. Thanks guys, this has been pissing me off for so long... still got a lot to learn

    I have to warm up to some degree but I didn't waste my time with 135 and 155 tonight.

    3 sec pauses always helped me, built explosive power coming off the chest, usually 3X5 on my (light day)..at the end of the bench workout.

    I do. On flat I usually do 135 for 15-20 reps at various speeds. I'll blast out a couple reps, lower slow and blast up a few, slow rep through a few and do a 3 sec pause not quite all the way down for a few. I just play around with it for 15-20 reps. That usually gets me ready for a good workout.
