1998 I tore my pec benching 485. It was a tough lesson learned. You can not push your body that hard for long. Our tendons are not made for that. I train now to get a pump. I never, ever throw any more than 135 on a bar and try not to use a straight bar at all. I'm usually 250 lbs but I've learned that the pump is what makes me grow. You're still young at 35, I'm 50 but when you tear something the recovery will be miserable.

I agree the body isn't made for record breaking workouts every day. I haven't done straight bar bench press in years, my shoulders won't take it anymore. I haven't done near max squats or deads in years either. I remember when you tore your pec, great to see you hear bro.
