Perfect.
After spending the usual weekend gym time chipping tiles from the bathroom wall (not a bad shoulder workout, actually) I didn't get a chance until this morning to catch-up a bit. The session was unfortunately cut short due to bad light - none at all, really; the battery-powered light died - but there was still time to get through a bit of work.
After warming up with a bit of close-grip benching, it was on to the Seated Half Press and a brief flirt with the Bradford Press. I haven't done these for months, and I suddenly remembered why. One set with just the bar was quite enough (especially after the seated halves).
Just started getting into some lat work when all went suddenly dark. At least there was enough time for a few strict sets of Pendlay Rows.
Bench press (close grip) 4×20@20/44, 4×12@40/88
Seated half press 4×12@40/88
Bradford press 12@20/44
Pendlay row 4×12@40/88
