After I did my normal sets, I was feeling pretty good and decided to go a little heavier. There was a guy there I knew so I asked for a few spots....the 280 went up pretty smooth and fast but i decided not to push it too much. I've been stronger in the past than I am now, but ive never tried to max out my decline bench before. I may have had 290 in me, but I didn't want to push it. Unfortunately my flat bench isn't quite this strong.
