The way David Woolson explains pretty much every topic related to powerlifting is so fucking clear and succinct it almost makes me wonder if some youtube coaches are just copying the top guys without really understanding the reasoning behind their methods, I have never understood a lot of these topics anywhere near as in-depth until I found this channel and I've watched ungodly amounts of powerlifting youtube

[@astrotaco_bps]

Im on my third year of learning powerlifting and FINALLY found a video that answers all my questions about leg drive. Whew

[@graysonelliott5649]

i guess it's kinda off topic but does anyone know of a good site to stream new movies online ?

[@colemanaugustine3376]

@Grayson Elliott Try Flixzone. You can find it on google =)

[@cristianobrayden8712]

@Coleman Augustine Yup, been watching on flixzone for since march myself :D

[@graysonelliott5649]

@Coleman Augustine Thank you, signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :) I appreciate it !!

[@colemanaugustine3376]

@Grayson Elliott No problem :)

Your pronunciation is really easy to understand. I am not good at English, so it is not uncommon for other lifters to wonder what word this means, but in your case, it is good to understand. thanks. :)

[@krzysztof-michalak]

I agree, it is really easy to understand David as a non-native

Leg drive always added about 30 to 50 Lbs to my bench press✊🏽

[@KazBrownRP]

Great video and very well explained thank you

[@tamezd11]

id been noticing my spoto press is extremely strong compared to my normal competition bench but man i cannot find a good position to put my feet for leg drive

[@BlackAdam2784]

Same !!!

[@drinkinouttacups2665]

I usually put mine on the ground

The ridiculously extreme arch does seem like cheating the lift. The bar is only moving 1 or 2 inches. What's the point? You're not doing much more that unracking the bar and putting it back.

[@harleykennedy7922]

Exactly what I thought, not even doing full range of motion, and even if it's just for lifting heaps it's like a quarter rep

[@marcellocalza8041]

The point is trying to win

[@marcellocalza8041]

@MrHarrystank actual competitive and strong people dont whine like absolute pussies about the rules, they adapt and try to win. If something is allowed you should exploit it and do whatever it takes. Also In this context people who have a super high arch and minimal rom in the bench press often are shit at deadlifting because of their leverages, so everything balances out in the end. If you cant do an high arch in the bench press that is your problem, people who do it are not at fault, the rules are the same for everyone, so stop whining and just get stronger.

[@planedecoded]

i lifted seriously around 10 years ago. none of this information was available then widely (unlesss someone can correct me), it was all pinch your shoulder blades etc, arch your back and stick your ass out for the squat. I genuinely thought it was all good advice. Now I can see how wrong it was. thanks

[@creamofthecrop5868]

is it a bad thing if your butt comes off the bench?

[@BrazosValleyStrength]

If you are a power lifter, yes

[@creamofthecrop5868]

@@BrazosValleyStrength So its bad for a powerlifting meet, but not much of a problem when training your bench to get stronger?

[@BrazosValleyStrength]

You could frame squatting in the same way. I think pretty much everyone should be squatting to the same depth powerlifters do. But they don’t HAVE to and it won’t actively hurt them if they don’t. So your butt coming up won’t hurt you, but it does make things a lot less consistent and hard for you to frame your own progress. Again, use the squat analogy. If most of your squats are to depth, but your heaviest ones aren’t. How do you analyze your progress there. Consistent technique helps a lot.

Sean’s feet position is because of usapl rules, feet have to flat. Other girl must be in another federation

Thankfully, the massive arch is now dead.

Is it?

[@BrazosValleyStrength]

I think the new rule will affect less people than you think. Is my arch too big for your preferences?

[@davidward5225]

@@BrazosValleyStrength I came up in the 60s when a proper bench was truly raw (no wraps or shirts or PEDs) with a flat back and the heels on the ground. That way one’s natural ROM is what it is.

[@BrazosValleyStrength]

I bet no sumo either. Shame things have become so soft. That’s the only reason everyone lifts so much more now.

[@birdman19]

Stop using legs it's a chest workout

[@matthewsum1752]

It’s not a workout it’s a bench press
