Light Upper
Speed Bench with bands (red): 3x2@95, 5x2@115
Close Grip Bench: 8, 8, 5 @ 215
Pullup: 4x8@50
Military Press: 3x8@140
EZ Bar Preacher Curl: 2x8@80

My speed benches are not very speedy, though it may just be because I'm using too much weight. The red bands are, supposedly, 90lbs combined (depending on stretch and tension, of course), and I find that the speed off my chest decreases drastically from 95 to 115. It is a tad bit embarrassing to not be able to use a full plate =(.

Otherwise, I was able to get full reps on everything but close-grip benching. When doing close-grip, I find that I start to twist to the right for the last few reps. I guess that means that my left side is weaker? I'll need to pay more attention to my form in the future.
