Bench Week 6 of 10 for Arnold

I went up to train with Chad Walker this afternoon.  I like changing up the environment every now and then.  Plus, he has an awesome group of lifters up there.  Chad took the day off but came out to spot, thanks for helping out.  All the weight felt really light during warm-ups.  I was worried how everything was going to feel after yesterday and my back getting tweaked a little.  It sucked last night, I was limping and hobbling around bent over all night.  I did a couple contrast showers and took some ibuprofen and went to bed.  Woke up and was still the same.  But as the day went on it got a little better.  I felt like I couldn't get a really good arch but it was OK.  I shirted up and did a couple singles and then the plan was to do a last warm up touch and then an opener touch.  I am opening with 560ish so I used 528 as my last warm up.  What a disaster...  I still don't know what happened.  I took the weight and touched easy but then - PARKING LOT...  I don't know if my traps slipped or if I dumped it low just enough or what but I was thinking the day was over.  I decided to take 528 again and got it but it was ugly.  I was rethinking what I was supposed to do but decided to just push through.  Put 560 on the bar, touched, and slow motion locked it out.  Next up was my anticipated 2nd attempt, 580 to a half board.  It was a little better but I didn't float it back and it stalled until I remembered to push back and then it went up.  That's the thing with the Jack shirts, you have to push back.  If you do that they will go with you all the way to lockout.  My goal at The Arnold is 600 so that's what I have as my 3rd attempt.  I took that to a one board and it was by far the easiest rep of the day.  I remembered to tuck hard and push back and pop...there it went.  So, what was looking like a horrible day turned into a 15 lbs PR off a one board.  After presses I went over and did two sets of close grip reverse band presses.  545 for three then 615 for three, which was my PR last training cycle.  I had been in my shirt for almost two hours so I took it off.  Finished off with some push downs and called it a day.  The video is of the 580 and 600, missed the touches, and honestly I wouldn't want to see them...
