Wasn't sure how bench was going to go today.
Legs were still sore, so squats were out plus I'd done squats in the morning class (Albeit not very heavy but enough given my sore legs), so bench was the only thing left I hadn't covered this week.
I warmed up slowly, hitting empty bar, 95#, 115#, 135#, 155#, 185# and 195#, dropping reps quickly as the weight went up doing singles as of 185#.
Working sets were 95% of max so 205#, 3 singles. Hit 205# twice without issue, didn't even need a spotter. For the last one, I decided to go big or go home and did 210#, recruited Mo to spot me and that was all the confidence I needed, it wasn't easy but it went up without pause.
Ready for a PR next week.
