Heavy Bench with Blocks

Need to take my six block and turn it into three. Four blocks is too much and two is not enough. Got an email from Critical Bench that discusses the difference between what I call "White meat" and "Dark meat". Need more white meat in the chest. Don't care about appearance, just strength. I wouldn't really consider myself a powerlifter. Kind of a mix between strength and looks. Would like better slow twitch in biceps and fast twitch in chest. Anyhow here is today's workout:

Bench (4 blocks): 8 x 225, 5 x 275, 4 x 315, 4 x 335, 4 x 355
Incline DB Press: 10 x 65, 10 x 65 (with chains), 15 x 65
DB Flys: 3 x 4 x 65
Captains Chairs: 7 x 15

Need heavier DB's. 65 is as heavy as we have. Too light for doing low reps. Too cheap to buy heavier ones. Need to check out the new Rec center in Bountiful.

Here is a sample of today's lifts.
