I’m sure they all loved benching against their other competitors. Powerlifting is just a great sport if you like to push yourself and are into bigger and better numbers for each lift.

The guy that won was doing it the easier way. It’s easier to push it back up with all the momentum when you bounce it hard on your chest compared to controlling the weight down and up, which is what everyone else was doing. Anyways props to him for winning. Great Video Nick!

[@joshtrd]

It’s actually a pretty common technique in powerlifting granted it does make the lift easier. He’s not dropping the weight and bouncing it, he’s pulling it to his chest and exploding off the tension if that makes sense.
