180KG + 30KG CHAINS | 3 DIFFERENT BENCH PRESS VARIATION

Just got back from Norway on Monday and got straight back into training on Tuesday. Shorter workout than usual, but a very good one. Three different bench press variations and three personal bests across the session. Top set: 180KG + 30KG chains — close grip Larson pin press Back-off: 165KG × 6 Final back-off: 145KG × 12 The 180KG + chains was the biggest I’ve ever done on the close grip Larson pin press, with roughly 15–20KG of chain loading at the top and no leg drive. The close grip and lack of leg drive make it a very demanding variation, while the pin press removes the stretch reflex. Changing the bench variation throughout the workout gives me more opportunities to progress different movements, and today every variation came with a new PB. Really happy with how everything is moving, especially after just getting back from Norway. Finished with reverse dumbbell flyes + high rows for the upper back, followed by green band pushdowns. I’ll be getting more videos up throughout the week. 👊 #powerlifting #benchpress #strengthtraining #gym
