Took some footage of my workout yesterday.
First set (my warmup actually) was 275lbs on the bench press. No spotter.
I know, I know. No spotter with that kind of weight normally = quite dumb, but I'm confident in my strength to do a set of 10. That went off without a hitch.

Second set, 295lbs on the bench press. Had a spotter.
I don't think I got 10 myself. It's hard to tell how much he's taking off from looking at the video, and it was impossible to tell while I was pushing. I'm guessing I pushed 8-9 of them myself, even though he starts touching the bar after the 7th push.

Third set, 315lbs on the bench press. It's actually the body weight OF my spotter. ^_^
I can't quite tell if I got 6 myself. I think I did, but it was obvious I needed some help the rest of the way (to get 10 reps) The 9th and 10th push, I can tell he's taking off some pounds just because of his grip on the bar and how tense his arms are (at least compared to the 295lbs push)

Got a video of me doing barbell pullovers. 185lbs, one set of 10. (I actually did three sets of 10 for my workout, but the first attempt was the prettiest one. ^_^)
