Dead after one excersise? - Tuesday, June 05, 2007 5:06 PM ( #1 )
Whenever I'm on chest day and I do my normal bench, i can't put up weight at all at incline or declince bench press.
 
I'm 16 about 5'10", 145. I'll go through my normal routine and get 3 sets of bench in, (i'm even dead at the end of these) but right after I'll try to do a differnt type of bench and I can't put up close to what I did.
 
 Is this normal and what can I do to fix it?

ok thanks, and this is an example:
  • I'll do 115-135 3 sets at around 6-10 reps than I won't be able to put up 95 on the incline

Do you think I should just start with real little weight and work my way up?

Pre nutrition is just a normal meal with animal pak, and superpump before my workout... What would you reccomend for before workout meals?

how long of a rest do you take between sets?

its normal not to be able to do the same weight through three exercises unless you are holding back on the first few exercises.  you are exhausting the muscles, so by the time you get to your next exercise, they will be fatigued.  if you are concerned about the weight you are lifting for the other exercise, every 4-6 weeks you should change your routine up.  instead of doing flat first, do incline or decline first, ect.  this will help bring lagging parts of your chest up in size and it will help with your strength.  good luck

Thanks, I'm going to try doing flat and then less weight inclince. Than the week after and start with incline and see how it works.
