Shirted reverse band carnage

So I have decided that I am just going to use my loose shirt instead of trying to use my tight one and bombing any more.  I figure once I hit a svelte 335-340 I should fill this shirt out decently.  Time will tell.
We did reverse band bench so that almost all the bands let go at the top... It weren't pretty.
255 X 2 sets of 10
305 X 8
335 X 5
395 X 3
525 X 1 off 2 foam boards
575 X 1 off 2 foam boards with maddog slangshot
shirt went on from here on out...let the suck ass night begin.
665 X 2 off 2 board
755 X 1 off 1 board
795 X nope. off my fat belly.  I fought this one most of the way down, flared my elbows once I finally touched and made it about 2 inches off my chest.  Form and brain failure.
755 X almost 1.  This set went much better and I almost (should have) locked it out, but instead of staying inside of it I flared my elbows and turned it into a partial bodybuilder press.  Most of our gym members would have counted it so it counts right...

Seated overhead Shoulder press:
135 X 8
185 X 8
225 X 8
245 X 8
275 X 5

Triceps extensions laying on bench using plate(s)
70 # X 12
100 # X 3 sets of 12

External Rotator work: 2 sets of 12 each arm.  Should have done a bit more pre-hab work, but my wife had gotten me takeout Chinese from our favorite place and I had some home brew beer to try one of our gym members made, so that was all she wrote for me...

Squat Death Wednesday looms....
