Bench Getting Better?
Ok, so today I did my bench press with yet another new bar which 2 guys, one of who works there, told me was a 20kg bar. If this was right then my bench just hit a landmark of 100kg (for 5 reps) and I am over the moon....BUT I dont actually belive its true because that means my bench has went up 10kg in 2 weeks. 3 weeks ago, before I took my holiday, I was benching 90kg (for 8). Last week I benched 95kg (for 4, although I actually thought it was 85kg), and today I benched 100kg for 5. As much as I would love this I really dont think I would gain strengh like that in a week. Has anyone else had any experiences like this?

aye, it can jump up that quick. I have a client texting me nearly daily as his strength is skipping up. The nervous system is getting better ant recruiting muscle.
Cheers Neil, Makes me feel that much better, seeing how you most likley know what all the bars in the gym weigh. well see next week anyway on chest day.lol
well done on bench press mate - mines a bit of a bugger as i am finding it hard to add weight without losing form.
As neil says your CNS is improving so i reckon all your lifts will be due a surge.
I'm really struggling with this, I just can't seem to increase from 46kg on the dumbells. Even mixing my routine around a bit still leaves me struggling,.
