Great day of training and nutrition today. Overall inactive day, sat around and did homework most of the day. Got my intervals and extra core work in today. Seeing as I haven't done any chest work in the last 2 months except for some push ups here and there, I was curious to see where my bench press was. After my intervals I sat down on the bench warmed and decided to see where I was at with 185lbs, almost my body weight and the only weight I could really remember for reps when I was on a body building based program. Surprisingly I was able to crank out 8 clean reps at that weight, slow down, stopping just above my chest, no bounce, and back up. I honestly don't think I have lost anything on my bench maybe a rep at that weight but that's about it. I think that goes to show how much stronger my shoulders and triceps have gotten from all the overhead pressing. 

Just watched the fights which were great. Some awesome BJJ tonight. Anyway overall good day, got lots of school work done, good training, and good nutrition keeping it to about 1900 calories. Cheers.
