Goals & Gains Devil's power/strength training log

JK I would start at generic 50% 180 and do 8x3 30-45 sec rest between sets. Watch the speed of the bar. You may need to go higher or lower. Although you may end up getting best results in the 50-60% range. Try increasing 5lb a week and see how the bar speed is affected.

It's a Cybex multi hip machine. I tried to find a picture but without much success. I have seen women do at least a few exercises on it. Hip/leg moving sideways outward, inward, front, backwards. I'd honestly feel like zero bench pressing if I'd have to post a vid of me doing that hip machine..
