3 Bench Press Tips From The Strongest Man in the World

[@jjkent4551]

Insane that he's able to talk while pushing 405 pounds straight up.

[@JoshBobrowsky]

JJ Kent #beastmode

[@CHICOIZPAIN]

JJ Kent AND HELD IT FOR 4 SECONDS... SMH JESUS DUDE IS STRONG

[@TheExplodingPumpkin]

+JJ Kent Not really. If his max is at about 600 lbs he's only lifting 2/3 of his potential weight. If someone who is only able to bench 100 lbs talked while benching ~67 lbs, you wouldn't be nearly as impressed.

[@jjkent4551]

TheExplodingPumpkin It's impressive either way, 99% of all people can't even do one rep with 405 and he's so comfortable with that massive weight he's able to talk while pressing it.

[@KavasPVP]

Ryan Well he's right. 85% of your 1RM will be easier than your 1Rm because you're used to being able to lift a heavier weight. If you can bench 125 max, then talking while benching 110 wouldn't be a problem either. It's about how strong you are. There's still that same percentage level difference, doesn't matter if the weight is 600 lbs or 100 lbs, it's about how much YOU can lift

[@Passarinho86]

Whether he's on roids or not - you gotta love how he's doing 405 lbs w/o a spotter and making it look easy.

[@JoshBobrowsky]

Christian Schaefer an incredibly strong man warming up with 405

[@Passarinho86]

Please Dude Eat Muffins Drink Juicebox's Looks like someone has got roid rage.

[@MrKobeMonster]

Christian Schaefer​ Idk bit too harsh sorry whoever I said it too. And if I was hard on roids I would be rko'ing people lol. I bench max 215 what about you?

[@Passarinho86]

Please Dude Eat Muffins Drink Juicebox's I don't bench press much. Maybe 88? I barely even workout.

***** How the is it stupid if it's true? Did you even watch all his videos? He gives out a lot of good tips. It's your lazy ass that can't keep up with it. I don't mean to disrespect you. But he has helped many out there. What have you done? And to Saurav Verma; He's not fit like Mike Chang. He's just strong. I bet this guy can't even run 3 miles. Mike Chang is about being in shape. Not lift heavy weights. You're putting to fitness guy into one category when it's two different type of training. And honestly, I don't even like Mike Chang. His training isn't for me. I'm just saying. He's smart and know how to advertise himself. This guy just makes video and share it for free. He's not putting adds on youtube like Mike Chang is. That's why he's not famous. He can if he do more advertisement. If you guys are in the fitness community. We all respect one another. Not try to clown on each other. It's call 'Tips.' It may not work for you, but it works for others.

[@khmerbraveheart]

***** Ohh, I'll have to look him up. Thanks man!

[@BWatsy]

***** LOL. Alright, first of all his name is Elliott Hulse. He uses mostly all of his words correctly; don't blame him if your vocabulary is so limited that you can't even understand. The Hodge Twins do not have a deep knowledge base about fitness and their videos are more geared towards beginners and "bros". P.S. Based on your profile picture, I can tell that you a huge amateur that probably has an enormous ego. Go do some more chest and bicep work son.

[@seeyouatsunset]

This is the exact technique i use. Lower it deliberately, pause, then drive a straight path to lockout. Bench feels incredibly smooth.

[@NeoSoviet]

Its interesting to note that when the bar is against his sternum you can clearly see before he presses there is leg drive going on. Its almost like a power wave that starts from his feet that arrives at his chest and the bar bounces off. If you could explain a little more about that technique it would be awesome.

[@yoboibeerus1387]

He explains a bit here- 2:05 Basically, its a slight push which makes the bench more explosive.

[@matthewscillitani3019]

The best bench press form I've ever seen! I integrated the hand movement, spinal arch, and foot placement and into my bench press and it made my max 20lbs higher! This video should be the most popular benching video on KZbin!

[@jackmurray2446]

Short arms and a thick torso are definitely an advantage. I'm 61 years old, 6'2" with fairly long arms so it limits what I can do. But I can still crank 275 for 4 reps. So I guess that's okay for my age.

[@edwardboster516]

[@lynnjester7859]

Too all of those talking crap about how he is on roids and crap like that, the meet he was at where he broke those records was drug tested by the sanctioning body. lol and for the guy who said that 405lbs isn't possible without roids on bench press.. You simply need too spend less time here telling others what isn't possible and spend more time working towards proving that you yourself can do it if you simply put in the work and effort it takes and don't make excuses for your misperceived self imposed limitations too be passed on to others. lol

[@workfromyourtablet]

awesome comment

[@kitwalker2103]

Lynn You are right These people are just jealous the guy is great!!

[@lynnjester7859]

lol uhh bud I compete in natural powerlifting and have done a 415 myself at 220 bracket . There are people out there who simply work smarter towards their goals than others. Just because someone is strong it doesn't mean they are on drugs . I have videos up of heavier lifts than that at 242 and 275 bracket bud . It just isn't what people are used too that's why they automatically think someone is drugged when they see someone who has competed since a young age lifting that much. People are defensive towards what they don't understand.

[@lynnjester7859]

search for some of my news stories bud if you want too see the videos my full name is Jesse Jester I have another channel under that name as well. Best of luck in your training bud.

[@noahklumpp512]

***** 405 is most definitely possible while staying natural. I would encourage you to try out real powerlifting style training that focuses on speed and strength, rather than your normal bodybuilding regiment. Good news is that you should be pretty symmetrical and therefore at lesser risk of injury under big weights.

[@abdullaali3735]

i will start to arch to bench press, i will start with no weights first, little by little i will add just 5 kgs and ongoing, i used to bench press with back straight, but i need to improve for more strength and be safe , i will take this vid from strongest man better than other vids on youtube, i'm amateur kick boxer for 16 years, after covid i need to get back to strength not really just fit only, thank you man

This guy is nowhere near the strongest man in the world. I'm not sure he's even top 10. I wish these youtube videos would stop slapping the "Strongest Man in the World" label on everyone that's very strong.

[@WillWalkerJr]

He said he's the record holder in his weight class

[@iwillneverpostavideo]

That doesn't necessarily make him the strongest man in the world. There are other men that can beat him at all three of the big lifts in terms of powerlifting. And if you expand our criteria to include strongman competitors he could get blown away. I'd say that the record this man holds would make him "the most well-rounded powerlifter in the world" which is still a great achievement and it's a fuck of a lot more than me of course-- but he's not the strongest.

[@richardmarvell9526]

I Try and be Nice If you can out-lift this guy in the 3 exercises your point is valid. If not... take a seat lol

[@iwillneverpostavideo]

Being strong has nothing to do with being logical. I don't need to be stronger than him to know he's not the strongest, get what I mean? I'm not saying the guy's weak, and I'm definitely not saying I'm stronger than him. He's way out of my league, and he's very impressive! But that doesn't mean I can't call him out whenever he pretends to be something he's not. But using your logic, we could rightly say that once this guy deadlifts 1150 pounds and push presses 274 pounds one handed for reps like Zydrunas Savickas can, then he's valid ;)

[@garbageman9145]

[@real01s.50]

you my friend are strong as hell.

[@donjohn281]

This can't be real life

[@MrJ.31]

Sorry Chris but the rear delts do activate during pressing movements, as do the traps, lats, rhomboids, and supraspinatus. In powerlifting the bench press power comes from the parts of the body with the closest connection to the bench and floor. The chest, triceps, and front delts don't start to really activate until the bar is a quarter off your chest. Now a bodybuilding bench is different and won't activate the back as much since its position is flatter on the bench and the weight is mostly stabilized by the front delts and triceps. This guy is absolutely right in his description and crazy strong I might add. Good stuff!

[@avarmauk]

[@biggdee8134]

Thanks for the tips. I now need to incorporate back workouts in.

[@chrishahn7256]

OK...you're strong, but no expert on physiology apparently. Your rear delts are not activated in ANY pushing movement. They are for pulling. Hence why they're in the back of your shoulder. It is most definitely your front delts that take a huge portion of the load.

[@IJustGotCCd]

If you position yourself correctly and activate your entire upper back for a big benchpress you certainly would feel a good activation even on your back muscles. Bench is not only about your front, you need a big stable back aswell.

[@ecastro715]

I often have sore rear delts after bench day. Especially from incline.

[@chrishahn7256]

You're all idiots. Then your back isn't developed enough. Look at physiology. Look at how muscles function. If you get any back work done by benching then you never do back. Yes, the rear dealt stabilizes the shoulder joint but if its already developed then you won't feel or gain anything in it from bench presseing

[@Gimmlie6262]

So lets critise the entire fitness industry for say this. You clearly don't know jack shit about a proper bench. I am not going to argue with you because you are to dense to look how to properly bench. I guess I can say that it doesn't come directly from pressing but more keeping your back tight and squeezeing you back at the bottom to pop out of the bottom for the movement. But I can say I experience the same thing where my back gets sore, and I also do 1 heavy back movement every night I train and I do face pulls every night. I do not have an under developed back by any means.

[@ecastro715]

Same reason I didn't comment back. Not gonna argue with someone online. But I stand by my previous comment.

My old football coach Stand Sutteer was in the 2000 lb club on those excercises. You dont impress me much

[@jordancama3478]

whats your total then

[@stabblooder6148]

445 bench, 585 deadlift, 515 squat=1545, which is irrelevant because My comment was about my HS football coach.

[@jordancama3478]

shit nvm you're actually pretty strong

[@stabblooder6148]

steward rofa Didnt say I wasnt fat as well. Though if you look at the dates of those vids they are quite old. Ive lost 70lbs since March which kinda sucks cuz none of my clothes fit anymore, and increased my weightlifting quite a bit too, increasing it from the 350 lb bench it was. Good on you for doing your research!

[@batfreak3893]

+Stab Blooder You do realize that these exercises don't mean shit except that you are strong in THOSE positions. But I guarentee you can't straight bar curl 300 lbs with good form or bicep curl 150 lbs in one hand with good form. Usually big guys do these types of execersices just show off when in reality its useless in fights and ensures slow speed from all the mass on their bodies. I believe a big man who can win real fights and is agile to be FAR more impressive than a guy who just lays on his back and pushes a heavy bar in a CONVENIENT way above his chest. This is the problem with weight lifters, most of you are obsessed with the fact you can lift pieces of iron that were shaped CONVENIANTLY for you to grab.You may be able to curl 275 lbs but that just means your arms have adapted to lift that weight in THAT specific position. But if you tried to lift a 275 man, you won't be able to lift him in any other way than THAT position. Powerlifters, Bodybuilders, you all just TRAIN to lift weights in specific positions but you cannot DO anything else because you don't TRAIN for anything else. If I put a powerlifter and sumo wrestler in an arena to wrestle eachother, the sumo wrestler would always WIN do the fact that he was TRAINED TO WRESTLE AND WIN, he was TRAINED FOR THAT SITUATION unlike the powerlifter. So, when you guys boast about how "badass" you all are because of what you do in the gym, remember this, YOU DONT KNOW HOW TO DO ANYTHING ELSE. You are bound to ONE skill and that's it. The rest is pretty much based on your genetics, some of you might be able to take a punch and some of you will go down after the first strike to the head. So, there's that consideration. But if I put Rich Piana or Da Hulk or The Mountain in the same room with a master MMA fighter, no referee, no rules, they'd all fail one by one. The Mountain's size would be his worst enemy, Da Hulk would be too slow & Rich would be overwhelmed by the fighter's quick & precise strikes aswell.

1ST TIP STEROID 2ND TIP STEROIDS 3 TIP STEROIDS

[@DoPrice]

Haters gonna hate

[@beefbroth6539]

Ok, I've used all 3 tips, but still can't hit 3 plates, what now?

[@masterdelrap]

Beef Broth dude steroids make u gain muscles faster by lifting lol

[@iconicz6]

rap RD So your saying it's impossible to bench 405 without steroids? Any person can bench that weight if they have trained a long time,has the right genetics and just have the power of will. People like you think if you take steroids you will put on a serious mass in a short period of time. You have to go through the hard work and do everything right!

[@Man0fMetal]

rap RD You can still go on steroids and lift like shit. If you take steroids and do freakin smithmachine benchpresses you fuck up your shoulders and end up with twiggy alien arms(that i asume you have). I have seen people on roids lift less and have less size than me, Roids are a supplement to proper lifting and a prober diet. If you take roids and live on oreos and frenchfries you wont get anywhere. you will then be a twiggy alien with oversized forearms compared to the rest of your body from all the masturbation and channel surfing you do.

[@ast-og-losta]

Very impressive. I did not know about foot placement. Thanks for the tip.

[@PaulSmithLift]

Yeah hes not the strongest man in the world lol

[@Defiant00cfm]

my mind was just blown! confident enough to not even have a spotter. I tip my hat sir. 405 pounds no spotter, and talking while your doing it. WOW!

[@ryun111233]

I don't care how strong you are you need a spotter.

[@giteausuperstar]

what a nonsense comment.

[@kirkey99]

I don't care how spot you are you need a stronger!

[@nathanthornton]

do you use a spotter with your 70% max of 100 pounds poodz pie? didnt think so

[@BUFFALO_cougar_slayer]

Why?

[@TroyPicasso]

***** hahaha that comment cracked me up man!

[@capoman1]

1:07 Makes 405 look like light weight, wow. I will be glad to listen based on this alone.

[@DushanNish]

tip number 1: get steroids

[@DushanNish]

dude i know all the tips which makes sense, but this is so true. Nothing does help as roids.

[@AlejandroSanchez-pl6jw]

+DushanNish but is it necessary to mention it ?

[@justlooking2183]

DushanNish all these lame ass fools that never step in a foot in the gym have so much to say. The same motherfuckers that say “I don’t want to get that big” o just want to be cut 😂

[@matt8863]
