Adjusted my carb intake.. I was at barns and nobels reading books on dieting and training... I came to a conclusion that I am not even close to what I should be as far as carbs are concerned.. So anyways I fixed the diet add'd in grape juice raisins bananas apples peaches etc.. I have fruit with just about every meal. I have my new supplements here and the muscle milk pudding is pretty good. My weight seems to be going up again but I got to be careful it actually goes up pretty quick... if I gain 1lb a week thats okay with me Next PH cycle I will run in 6 more weeks.. giving me a total of 7 weeks off. Only next PH cycle I am going to increase my diet once again since my body will be able to use more of the nutrients I take in. I see my self making is to 215 easy I just got to watch how fast I do it.

IBB mentioned some shoulder trouble, ive done 3 day routines on bench before, it doesnt hurt the shoulders, you just feel weak and "tingly" around the shoulder joints while performing the exercise, it does actually also effect strength, 1st set you get it fine, 2nd set you miss way too many reps, over exertion etc etc.
Unless thats just me, 270lbs 4 times is brilliant, how far into the 5th was you? absolute fail or lockpoint fail?
Because if its a lockpoint fail then youre not far off it.
Are you doing fast power reps with the higher weights? or slow? or just standard tradition benchpress speed?

Well I start with 135 and do reps from my chest but I don't lock out I do them kind of like ronnie coleman basically.. Just pumping the weight without a lock out. I do the same with 205lbs..
With 270 I am using more explosion my back does arch a little and I am shooting for power and speed. Sometimes I may drop it down to 225 and do the pumps again from the chest without locking it out keeping my chest and deltoids under constant tension.
The 5th rep on 270 I failed after I had it half way up... I got stuck right at 90 degrees.. Which really sucks!!! My cousin had to bump the bar and then I got it... I can't count that rep though.. I am going to do 270 again and I plan on hitting 5 reps.. My shoulders were a tad bit sore from the last work out.. I should be fully recoverd for the next work out.. Tomorrow is back day.. Then I am taking a day off... Tuesday I am hitting my chest and I am going to tear it up.
If I am doing a chest day I allow my self 2 - 3 days to recover.. Every other time I do flat bench I give my self one day of rest then work the chest again the next day.. Basically I spread my bench out throughout the week.
On another note I push pressed 195lbs this time above my head and locked it out.. That was my last set I believe if I had done it the second set I can probably push press 205 above my head free bar.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0VBp0eVTj8 this was my 260 x 6 incase you missed it in my video thread.. Like I said I arch my back a little and I am really shooting for explosion and speed but keeping a full range of motion. I may arch my back but its after I have already touched the weight to my chest.. Alot of the time you see these guys arch their back before they even push the weight.. as a result they are cutting their bench short by a couple inches.. I am not saying what I am doing is correct but it does work for me and I have had no back problems.

My program is incredible it does not seem to stop working.. it slowed down a bit because I am not on pro hormones or anything... I have been natural for 2 weeks now. I am running the Mass tab + trenxtreme cycle in another 3weeks.. By the end of that cycle I expect to be repping 300lbs x 5 on the bench.. Not sure what my max would be...
Aye I would like to hit 405 in another year maybe.. that would be cool.. but i think its actually going to take me about 2 years.. Right now I am working on increasing my squats with a sled mation full extensions.. I am working on stability with push press's and I am swaying away from deadlifts again.. Basically I am doing alot of over head stuff.
I am also getting trained by a couple guys in the gym on shoulder work outs.. Increase the size of my deltoids. I have adjusted my program to work biceps to because thats a weak spot for me..
