Yup, light weight training was definitely missing from my training recently. For perspective, several months ago I hit 250 for 10 on bench pressing.  I just haven't done any high rep stuff at all recently, it's shocking my system quite well; hopefully my max bench numbers don't suffer though.  As I went along my body parts starting checking out one by one from exhaustion.  Happy I found a weak-link, it's kind of revitalized my training. I'm not sure how long I'll stick with the every-other week light workouts for specific days; I may end up doing 3 heavy and 1 light every 4 weeks as a happy medium.
Also, hadn't done curls in a few years, so I grabbed a kb, and palmed the round part and curled it over a preacher bench.
