If a set requires interruption, make as minor a weight adjustment as possible prior to the next. When scheme is listed as “5 x 7″, it always refers to “Sets” x “Reps”. Reminder: Position and organized execution always govern weight, and “locked out” always includes a stop of motion. Any mechanical break or positional inconsistency ends a max-rep set; Any day, but especially on a Saturday. Today: Perform 3L, 3R mace front press(light, hard) at challenging, organized angles OR  or 3L, 3R kettlebell floor pressfollowing each set of bench press, and then rest reasonably.
