No Focus AND Dropped 140kg! | Road to 140kg Incline Bench Press

Worked up from 60kg to 140kg tonight.
Iron won!!!

[@msudsie1971]

Good effort pal, you nailed the farmers walk wae the 140kg though lol. Enjoying the videos, all the best 💪😀👍

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Cheers bud. It was a solid farmers walk

[@AntBall-h6m]

Best fail I have ever seen! Doesnt get closer than that mate, 140kg incline imminent! Great effort Barry.

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Cheers dude 👍

[@rawspace1212]

Fearless effort

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Cheers dude 👍

[@deet1558]

Hard to beat your own garage gym,no cues and no posers

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Exactly 💯

[@craiggaskill3048]

Good attempt. Nearly had it. So close. Well done mate. Don't beat yourself up about it. You've got this.

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Cheers Craig

[@clearthinker9507]

Hi Barry. Rob from Adelaide here. Soooo close mate. Great effort. As far as your safety bars go....look at drilling some new holes above the number one and aline it so it suits your incline. Abit of engineering project for you. Great stuff mate.

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Yer need to get safety dept more involved :)

[@Davidhughes9467]

keep it up great gains

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Cheers

[@Davidhughes9467]

[@MartinCrimp-wi3pl]

Great effort 👍👍👍👍

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Thank you

[@stujujitwingfut5192]

Not to worry Barry, still a great effort especially as a natty well done 👏

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Thanks

[@JasonSpratt]

Barry the safety aspect got into your head,think you lost it before you went for it mentally, good effort, no doubt you'll get it,infact if you had a spotter you would of smashed it now,keep at it ,don't get deflated m8 👍ps not sure this works for everyone, but deadlifting before I bench increases my strength dramatically, keep er lit..

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Cheers Jason. Wasnt safety side of it. Didn't have necessary focus

[@JasonSpratt]

@barrythomsonlifts your a good nights sleep away from it barry for defs

[@bantakingbantaking4298]

Wait till 135kg goes up smoothly before 140kg bro!great attempt tho was close

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Yer

[@WesleySissons]

Incline into a Barry Zercher squat into a front carry farmers walk and a good eccentric deadlift to finish all in one rep WOW! Next time Barry a little stick point at the mid point is all

[@barrythomsonlifts]

🤣🤣 It was a combo lift

[@blondviking6064]

Good work Barry, are you never sick and out of energy?

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Nope :)

[@joseallday133]

Think of it more as a 140 partial zercher pb. Keep it going, though, mate!

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Cheers dude 👍

[@ridingwithjack8057]

Can’t win em all Barry! Least you live to lift another day

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Agree

[@oldschoolpowerlifting1234]

I would not call that rubbish. I think that fail was psychological and not physical. You rushed the chest touch on the way down and you were never entirely committed. I think get comfy with the 135 for a bit and then you have 140 in the bag. Well done and no shame in not getting that beast up for now!

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Completely agree

[@KJMonk]

Have you ever tried 5/3/1 training

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Yep

[@JohnChilds-jr6pn]

You should of styled it out at the end with a set of deadlifts😂

[@barrythomsonlifts]

🤣🤣 Next time

[@Grzegorz-i7g]

nice video got additional 50kg weight plates today this year focus legs

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Lets go!!

[@stevengardiner7931]

Thanks barry I needed a laugh lol.weights there barry next time m8

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Will get it next time 🤣

[@seismic6402]

If you had been doing some slow reps at a lighter weight that would have gone up. Doing a rep taking thirty seconds activates the muscles that you need when you are struggling. Not from me, from Kirill Sarychev you understand.

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Agree

[@Menace1978]

Failed that perfectly mate.

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Perfect fail 👌 🤣

[@bnewellz]

I'm disappointed for you, mate. I've noticed that your lockout is really strong on the flat bench, and you seem to be able to keep squeaking them out when most others would be done, which is down to pure tricep strength. What I noticed was that your 140 looked to be much higher up your chest than the 100s you did after. I think you just lost tightness in your lats because you were out of position and instinctively reverted to what works for you on the flat, causing you to flare too early. impressive effort, though, and I've every confidence you'll get it next time.👍🏻

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Cheers mate. Always another session.

[@Grzegorz-i7g]

watching lee priest while workout is like cheating in a game playing on mods this easily gives you +30kg in strength come on

[@barrythomsonlifts]

🤣🤣 If only

[@diabetespreventionandremission]

Next time. Watched several times, look at your elbows shifting back disrupting your drive. This won't matter soon, your neural drive & 1% more strength will tip ya over - not long now😊

[@barrythomsonlifts]

Thank you
