so do you have a goal beyond 405? Do you plan to keep moving up in weight?

I deffinatley see that happening as long as you dont lose steam. I am currently at 205 max lol. Watching your videos has helped me change my aproach though, and I am seeing nice results so far. Thanks for making these and uploading them.

They keep me motivated too, most of the time I train alone, so God knows I need the motivation.

I also lift by myself, all my motivation has to come from within, which can be hard at times. Also not having a spot is very detering. I have a bench almost exactly like yours, but I dont have those saftey bar things... those look really usefull without a spot, I am always wondering what might happen if I cant lift the weight.

In your situation I would only train no less than triples, so by the second rep you can gauge if you can complete the third one.

Yeah for some reason one of my replies didnt show up until later.. sorry for the semi repost... And currently I am doing sets of 2-5, but the last two sessions I had I just stayed around 2-3 and it seemed to work alot better. I am having a very hard time moving past 200, is there anything you could recomend ? What is your routine? I notice you move from very heavy weight / few reps to lighter wait and alot more reps. Any info would be greatly appretiated, thanks.

I also lift by myself, finding motivation from within can be very difficult sometimes. And having no spot makes it alot harder, I have almost the exact same bench as you, only I dont have those saftey bar things, I need to get some of those, they seem really useful with no spot. I am always afraid I might not be able to lift the weight, and with no spot or saftey bars that would suck.
