Notes: The incline bench is approaching "overhead press" angles.  Had to put bands on the bench and jack up the seat because I was slipping down on the first set.  Much better anchored for rest of sets.  Amped about FINALLY getting 3x10 on the bench.  Big contributor was going so light on the incline close grip, but any port in a storm.  Sticking with those close grip inclines because I got good recommendations on it from a buddy I trust and I'll be traveling again soon and may as well stick with that movement.  I think it's got some potential.
