Default Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3

Great day today. Finally achieved the 300 pound bench. Not very much room to spare, but it was all me. I would like to try 315 in about 4 weeks or so. Can I get a few recommendations for my next few chest workouts as far as weights and reps with this goal in mind? Today's workout was the following:

warmups: 135x10, 185x4, 225x4, 275x1
1RM attempts: 295x1,300x1
flat bench work: 245x8, 245x6, 205x8 (to failure)
Incline DB's: 75'sx12, 75'sx15, 75'sx10 (last 2 to failure)
Finished with a few supersets of cable flies (working lower pecs) and pec deck.

I've never really worked with a goal of increasing my 1RM, so this is a little new to me and why I'm asking some of the meatheads here.
