Dude, I wish I could go back in time to when I was Tragens age. The knowledge he’s getting right now is invaluable. Great video.

@gravitytraining6516 3 года назад

When you were his age, was it the age of bro splits and chicken/broccoli/rice?

@METAL__MECHANIC 3 года назад

@@gravitytraining6516 for sure! If I could go back to my late teens when i started working out to lose weight I would of focused more on gaining strength then loosing weight.

Dude I've been stuck not being able to go above 225 for awhile on my bench I watched your video put more effort into focusing on my set up and I was able to press 265×3 which in August I had maxed out at 260

@daniel1RM 3 года назад

i think getting stuck at 225 is more about your programming than technique, technique perfection helps a lot in (relatively) heavy weights,

@austinschiefelbein1099 3 года назад

@@daniel1RM Its also been a ton of injuries unfortunately. My shoulder and elbow doesn't like me.

@daniel1RM 3 года назад

@@austinschiefelbein1099 ohh yeah you cant keep benching if you are injured, i suggest you do more arm shoulder and chest exercises to build a good structure first, of course keep benching but try not to go for maxes, and treat your injuries, do a good warm up and always stretch at the end

@pazjake8753 3 года назад

Props to this guy for sleeping in his car then training.

@jakesimmonds5043 3 года назад

Does benching with your shoulders back and down increase strength in the long run? I'm doing it and I'm much weaker but I'm getting stronger with it. Will I eventually be stronger with this technique?

@Aguynearu Год назад

Yes because it’s more efficient to move more weight

@dmjohnson065 2 года назад

what does he mean when he says reach ??

@Harry-pf5lc 3 года назад

Can anyone tell me what the “reach” cue is please ?

@Aguynearu Год назад

I think it’s like bring your chest toward the bar and not bringing the bar to your chest

@rodrigodelgado4766 3 года назад

So what's the difference between this lift and an actual bench? Is it like a Spoto press with an isometric hold in arching the back?

@187_RT 3 года назад

What exactly does reach mean?

@jpc123ful 3 года назад

Im with USO 187: Please explain Reach.

@mcfero1 3 года назад

In one video he explained that when he is saying reach he is wanting the kid to stick his chest out, tighten up his scapulas... reach the chest to the bar. The kid doesn’t do it very well but that’s how I am understanding it.

@Greg-wz6fp 3 года назад

Big fan of Swede but isn’t this just a Spoto press?

@garrettgraves998 3 года назад

This is a floor press. The elbows hit the pads and limit the ROM. A spoto press is a paused bench just above the chest (not touching) and then you fire out of the hole.

@Izitnu 3 года назад

Floor press is normally done...on the floor...but this bench allows your elbows to hit the pads to limit your ROM like a floor press would but you can set up like you would on a normal bench which has a lot of benefits.

I know I can bench press. Do I think I can bench press well? Not really.

@RobertWadlow292 3 года назад

I think this bench press technique minutiae gets overblown sometimes. I just try to get really tight, retract my scapula and use a bit of leg drive and leave it at that. I find if I think too much about everything while I'm lifting it screws up my technique
