Update for 14 and 15 October 2015:
So the bench press specialization routine I settled on is a 9-week program where you rotate different pressing exercises, rep ranges and intensities.Since I'll only be squatting and pulling once a week, I needed something to fill up the remaining 3 days, and thought this fits the bill nicely. You start out with one main pressing exercise and 4-5 supplemental ones, then gradually eliminate them until you're only doing the main one in week 9.
I have no illusions about setting new PRs and have pretty much written this year off training-wise. Hopefully I'll learn something new from this experiment and stay motivated - I've been struggling with gym motivation since my back/hip injury.
Day one:
Smith machine floor press - up to a heavy set of 4
Seated cable row 5s x 6
Leg curl 4s x 8
Day two:
SlingShot bench press 300 lbs. x 5, 330 lbs. x 6 - used reactive SS, so this was pretty heavy
Standing BTN press 135 lbs. 3s x 6
DB curl 30 total reps
Pushdowns 3s x AMAP
