Thanks. I switched to HBBS a while back, and just got to the point where I feel comfortable with the form. LBBS was much too easy for me to good morning reps, although a general lack of upper and lower back strength surely contributed as well.

Good to see Monte's bench climbing more steadily than his squat. I'd hate to lose my fellow upper body bro.
I'm not sure getting back to previous levels can technically be called a climb, but yeah, whatever I'm doing will hopefully keep working for a while. Ideally I'd like to get my intensity bench back to 5x275 within the next few months and maybe inch my volume bench up a bit depending on how things go.

That he will.

Well, yeah, obviously there's that, but I did 3x5x135 last week on press after the same volume bench sets, so I thought 4 or 5 at 145 was possibly doable. There's nowhere else for me to really put press at this point while I'm working on bench; I may revisit that if I get back to a 3 plate bench and want to work towards some press goals.

So there's that.
Normally I'd troll you here, but you are doing strong work hitting bench PRs so I'll lay off. Just because fakebusto has decided to artificially lower his lower body mass to make his bench more impressive proportionally doesn't mean you need to sweat it.
