Warm-up
25 pushups x 2 sets
Working Sets:
80 lb dumbbells flat bench - 10 reps x 1 set
90 lb dumbbells flat bench - 8 reps x 2 sets
100 lb dumbbells flat bench - 7 reps x 2 sets
Incline Bench - barbell - 135 lb x 12, 155 x 10, 155 x 8, 155 x 6
Chest Fly - 10 chest flys. superset with 15 pushups. 3 sets.
Done. | I used to do something really similar to yours, with a barbell for flat bench instead. But with same reps/weight each set.
I did the pushups after the flys till failure for each set.
Loved that routine

I'm not a huge guy I'm only like 170, but I'm shredded like a batman action figure...
The purpose of the finishing exercise with the flys and pushups is to give the chest a final pump, and also as a cool-down from the heavy lifting. I personally found that after a strength program 5x5, the hypertrophy routine was what really helped me grow and pack on mass. The 5x5 is a great starter, to really help with activating the nervous system, but after that, you gotta really push yourself to failure to put on size...

So at Thompson today some 130 pound Asian kid thinks he could squat 3 plates. Watched him do his quarter squats and then giggled to myself. I was shocked when he put 4 plates on. Of course he goes for half a quarter squat the weight rolls off his shoulders and smashes the pins. Brand new barbell destroyed and destroyed the pins. Was really angry because I wanted to do bench off the pins today and this guy who thinks he can squat this much ruined it for me. I might end up switching to the oval since I'm still month to month.

according to Strength Standards my squat and dl are beyond intermediate whereas my press and bench are far below. do i continue training my squat and deadlift and hit the bench and press harder or do i still hit the bench and press harder but take it easy on deads and squats for the ratio to even out?
