Wendler Cycle 2: Bench Press (Week 2)

Wendler 5-3-1 Program, Cycle 2, Week 2. I'll be using my “Working 1RM” which is defined as 90% of your current 1RM. Today was Bench Press. I'll be using 235lb for my base weight. Wanted to stick with 135lb for the Power Cleans so I decided not to do Hang Power Cleans. I was kind of talking during the metcon so 18 minutes does not reflect my true time. It probably would be lower.
