Hey man, if I'm honest I was pushing 80kg only about 3-4 months ago, that was my working set!

I started benching twice a week with my current programme and the progress skyrocketed. I also believe there's a mental aspect to it, 100kg seemed absolutely daunting so any improvement I felt for sure I had reached my peak. 80kg weighing at 67kg is no small effort, shifting more than your bodyweight is always to be applauded!

But yeah if you're cutting I can see how it would be difficult to slap weight on the bar consistently - Damn lemme know how Smolov goes, I've never had the guts to try that out!
