The sound of 45 plates moving against each other while benching is the best sound ever

[@shanebluesky7452]

Don't stop giving bench press tips. Even after so many videos. I still learn something new.

All those rusty plates....that’s like $10,000 street value right now 😂

Hi Nick, Still remember watching you back when I started training similar setups/strengths. Glad you are still going mate, same dude, same basement. Keep it up.

Rusty bar and rusty plates, love the old school vibe. Your bench is stacked!

We just got out of lockdown in the UK, gyms reopened last Thursday thank god man

I’m amazed at how you did 405lb real casual in your basement without assistance. Most guys would need a spot. You’re crazy strong 💪🏾

Love your vids nick keep grinding.

That's probably more than 405lbs old weights are a few lbs over most the time lol good work

[@forreps5038]

Very true, got a metal weight set recently and the four 45lbs weigh 47lbs. The rest of the weights are on the dot, good call on that

[@oppermanfitness]

My bench has only went down. Best ever was 350LB with a slight pause. Unfortunately since cutting I've lost some strength.

[@fatboitino2]

That old school Hoist is really standing the test of time back there.

Nice. but trust me from a 565 Lb Natural Bench PR. Please use a lift off after 315, It will keep you tighter and save your shoulders. Im 49 yrs old and found out the hard way over the years. Great Job Nick.

[@cjb8001]

I used to watch religiously. Life happens... however, it’s pretty awesome to pop back in every 6 months to a year or so and see you still Making awesome gains, success in and out of the gym and giving advice to help others out. #muchrespectbro! 🤙🏻

Leg developer benches are nice, but since they're higher up (to accommodate the leg attachment) I've found they can restrict leg drive to an extent.

Great video man :D i liked it a lot !

[@stevemass8523]

Actually when gym re open i am going to try wideing my stance and try your deadlift tips to get that 300 kg one rn . Nowdays i am super close deadlifter tall long legs 280 . Well see my man Thank u

[@R32R38]

Closing gyms is insane. I suspect many people who've died of This Disease Thing would be alive and well if they had gone to gyms in recent years and not let their bodies turn to sh*t.

[@GYMJAX]

Exactly but the government refuses to talk about health and nutrition. They want to inject people with bs.

[@nocoolname32]

and lets talk about the people with mental health issues, addiction issues where they are no longer getting the help they need.

[@fatboitino2]

Yeah,but it's too late now- the disease is here and people are dying. Too late. I bet Arnold would have saw this coming. People don't want to diet and exercise for health. They want a pill for the beach and a treatment after they did the damage.

[@steffenpetersen2103]

Ive been Hurt so many times doing bench, so I do not bench anymore, but if I do, I go 1-2 fingers inside of rings, which I feel the most power

Levrone used to always put his little finger on the gap in the knurling so I copied him, but some bars do have them too close like you said

[@TheAuthorizedJay]

Personally, I bench inside the rings. I tried benching with pinkies on the rings, but I always felt I was losing power and it also makes me feel as if I'm able use more triceps and less shoulders.

[@satinderjit4]

Nick be like: I'm going to work on volume today and does 2 reps instead of 1.

Do you have a bench program like your deadlift program ?

Wrist curls with very light weight every other day. No presses, I recovered after a month. Get wristbands aswell when ur ready to press again, and warm wrists up before doing any press in the future

Hey man. Been a big fan since I heard Country Girl by Luke Bryan for the first time on an old video of yours about dieting on a budget. I don’t have any social media but I was wondering if you have ever thought about teaching options trading? Comment me back if you are interested in making a program I could buy or even just tutor me. I’ve seen how knowledgeable you are in fitness, I can only imagine it would be the same in teaching another subject matter you love.

[@mr.hallman333]

Good numbers dude. Don't kill your shoulders and elbows before you get old. Them joints won't be young forever. Impressive tho bro. Just be careful. 225 for 30 reps might be a better goal . As you age of course.

Bench 405 for 6 years or bench 225 for 25 years. Longevity is the goal. Ronnie Coleman is a good example. Hope that clears it up. The man will be 60 one day .
