Strong benching, and I agree with you with regards to linking OHP to bench strength.

You got dizzy b/c you blunt choked yourself. The bar was on your windpipe cutting circulation. I've seen people pass out while front squatting b/c of this. There's a fine line between having it set perfectly and choking yourself.

I didn't feel like I could breath I felt like I had pressure in my head. I have never had this issue before. I tried again and same result...

That's odd. I'm not sure what was causing that.

That's what I'm thinking. Dehydration plus head cold plus lack of nutrition equals bad things. As far as training this week I expected to feel off. I started to pass out hard two times inside of ten min last week. That's not just going away lol
