Hi, does the BBM HLM focus on press, bench or both?  
I’d like to be able to improve on both, so just looking for the right program for me (41 y.o, completed Andy Baker’s GGW 3 times now after months on LP).

Thanks.

It has two bench slots and one press slot.

Thanks Austin. Can this program be varied to include an additional press slot, so 2 and 2?
