Close grip bench and floor press took my bench from 255 to 310 in 6 months at 175lbs

[@Xavier-ww9zy]

Could you explain more? I've gotten my close grip bench press to 255x2, but my regular bench has stayed at 275. Any PRs I could aim for with the close grip before expecting the change?

[@JoachimZell]

Crazy

[@johnmorrison7205]

Did you gain weight at all during those 6 months? 55 lbs in 6 months is incredible

[@snitches2842]

Bullshit

[@DimiArt]

@@Xavier-ww9zy lower your close grips a bit so you can dish out more reps

[@danieltilahun9400]

Thanx! These are the important exercises listed by others. I went in just to convince myself that this is the way to go, and it seems you're all right about these exercises. My only problem is with elbow pain. Thanx again. Somehow I'll be able to make the step from 315 to 350.

[@soysuboca]

Thanks a lot. Great tips Mr.

[@ChalkandIron]

The plyo's are dope. I do them, not in that manner but similar.

[@georgetsapekis]

I started bench pressing with the goal to put some meat on my pegs. From day one I focused on the right technic and got some tips from a powerlifting athlete. Because of that, I believe, my chest gains have been slight, but my arms and overall upper body strength have increased dramatically. Last 10-12 months I've been fairly consistent and I'm now able to lift 230 (I'm 160) and do reps at 220. Haven't hit a plateau yet, but I'm sure it is just around the corner.

[@IbbyPlays]

How has the bench progress been?

[@soundwave9560]

1. Neutral grip dumbells bench (focus on drive off the bottom) 2. Close grip floor bench (focus on drive into lockout at top) 3. Tricep extensions (pump in triceps, mass in arms) 4. Explosive push-ups to boxes (coordination and explosiveness followed by controlled deceleration)

[@shuatock8216]

I’m 16 at 135-140 lbs. I bench 175, but I’m stuck at that now, making no progress it seems. I’m hoping this all will help me. Thanks man

[@pixel8122]

maybe switch to a different split.

[@ethantran3765]

DB Neutral grip helped me I believe, but I used kettle bells instead because of this other video. didn't bench in a couple weeks, just did that workout and push ups, and I was able to hit my max surprisingly. Im 19, maybe it is because I have been growing, but Ive been the same size, or I used a new preworkout drink. idk

[@AlvarWahle]

Try the 531-approach. Lighter weight = more control, and increase volume

[@100koochy100]

Great stuff, how many days apart would you do these and your Bench day?

[@dlai5702]

Can't wait to apply then to training today ♥️

That's awesome! Let us know how they work out for you! Would love to know how they turn out 💪

[@randomness8819]

Thank you. I know your vids are catered to athletes. However, I dream and as such would like to humbly request review of proper forms for these exercises plz. Due to injuries it's important to know the details like a newbie or phys therapy student. Thank you for your work and assistance!!

How long should you rest between each set?

[@Realmccoy614]

Close grip bench/diamond push ups and dips will increase your bench press

[@whosnell7785]

thank you

[@AjaychinuShah]

Thanks, for that Fat Barbell thing idea or whatever you use. Because/ with Controllifting, the thing is, that forearm strongness concept (proven maybe unproven,) conducts or inducts all that hydraulic fluid moving over which ligament did you say is not there.

[@brandon33371]

Man I’ve plateau’d on 225 for sometime I’ve got to 245 for my working sets a couple months ago but I had to take a break because of work

[@roqueandreeleazararroyovil8889]

Does the drop set on the db bench needs to be with the same weight?

[@brianrobbins3499]

I like the first 3 exercises but not sure on the 4th

[@themuu2223]

So am I doing this before or after i start my bench press session?

[@nooomnom7077]

any other recommendation far from box push up? because where I work out it is quite impossible to do it..xD

[@GarageStrength]

You can do clap push ups or explosive push ups where yo try to get high in air on each push up. Hope that helps 💪

[@anxietyman1771]

Are you doing a standard bench press (flat) in the same day (before) as these accessory movements?

I have a hard time pushing my one RMS because I use a gym that's I guess not really meant for people such as me or face tattoos arm chest tattoos I'm not a mean guy or scary guy or prison guy by any means but finding someone that will you know be able to help me if spotting me and not be too intimidating to me to go up and talk to you it's hard so my socialization skills are getting help with testing one RM , fearing the weight as well now that my lifts are +1×-2× bodyweight numbers.

would you do all these workouts in one session?

can chairs be used as a substitute for boxes ?

Yes of course. Just be careful and make sure they are steady, so you don't hurt yourself. 👍

probably impossible to jump 70 lbs in 2 month

[@Coffeendonuts]

You gonna need a lot of Trenboloney sammiches for that lofty goal. After 315 the gains come really slowly. You will be lucky to add 2.5-3 lbs a month

I have the a problem with basically every lift bench press squat deadlifts

[@paolohuang9935]

Update6 months and I'm still loving this bench. kzbin.infoUgkxo_64lVTGMk7y4aXTPxPOcQ3YTLyQ6kYV I use it almost daily. I've gotten used to the small wobble and it's no problem at all. Love the storage, it folds right next to my weight set in the garage and hardly takes any space. I wish the covering material was a little bit tougher. I have a feeling that in a couple years it'll tear, but the bench is very well priced that I would just buy a new one.3 month usage review. Awesome bench for someone looking for compactness and storage. I did have to drill a couple holes to adjust my preferred seating position and leg bar position but that's only due to my personal preference. It's very sturdy for normal workouts, but for anyone going above 100# dumbbell press it wobbles ever so slightly. I would probably go with a fixed bench if that's the case. That being said i can accomplish 99% of my normal gym workout with this setup. Very happy with the purchase.

[@AlvarWahle]

4:30 isn't a lockout-problem IMO. If you have to bounce the weight off the chest you're not strong enough. I'd hit him with the paused bench to make him stronger out of the bottom position

[@whatISlife007]

Decline push ups with weight vest

start with very many reps, example 4-5set x 30-35reps, then weekly increase the weight by 5-10lbs until you reach a maximum of 10 reps, then repeat starting with 5lbs heavier weight.
