my favourite part is when Szat Strength pretends to not be strongest sweetheart on our screens

[@SzatStrength]

Don’t be deceived... sometimes I save kids from burning buildings on weekends.

[@andrewchristman8523]

Grateful for the tips man - between yourself, Juji, and John Meadows, I have been LIVING with all of this content. Great day to have a day!

[@jonathanrhodes8525]

Brad's great isn't he-so much excellent advice, and once laughed (or at least pretended to) when I said he needed some new camouflage because we can still see him sitting in his car whilst wearing his Army uniform in a video.

[@BradArbic]

lol, thanks Jonathan. I'm still working on the improved camo.

[@josephsmth646]

Szat strength bro ,you are so big and humble at same time its not very often you see this 👍.

[@TheKradenX]

Got to bench tonight to try to hone these tips in. I know them academically but the army simple way you laid them out will help me cue them better I think. I've only been lifting for a year and a half, got small, long arms. Hoping to hit 315 on bench eventually. I think these tips will help!

[@BradArbic]

Thanks Kraden! I appreciate you checking this out, and leaving the positive feedback 🙏

Brad has a solid and great loud voice which I like!! Awesome tutorial!! Would like to see a squat video tutorial from Brad as well if possible!! 💪🏼

[@grahamcallaghan5429]

I cant hold my breath and brace for 10 reps, I'd go sleepy time!

[@BradArbic]

It takes time to build up the tolerance for it. Start with 3-5 reps at first. When you breathe, do it at the top, and attempt to reset as best you can before continuing

[@mrkang2431]

@@BradArbic Good advice. I tried this every 3 reps and while not ideal, it really helped. On heavy days, I'll rack it and do sets of 3 only.

Good tips from Brad. Joey, do you have any tips on improving the front rack position?

[@BradArbic]

Thanks Jus

[@bmstylee]

What's the issue you are trying to fix

[@jusplayin3815]

@@bmstylee It seems I lack the mobility to get my elbows all the way up. I don’t practice often enough, either

[@JoeyCentral]

Stretch the lats and wrists a bit when warming up. Use a PVP pipe if you have one available. That’s the best I can offer ya!

[@theh4lpin516]

I'm Definitely going to try hold my breath, use more leg drive and squeeze the bar now. I enjoy bench a lot but I have suffered a couple of shoulder injuries from not focusing 100% so I'm always looking for ways to improve. Great Vidya!

[@SzatStrength]

Give it a shot and see if ya like it. Try different variations to see if they help with pain or injuries:

[@BradArbic]

Chris, thanks for watching. Sorry to hear of your previous injuries. Most of my training stays under 80% of my 1RM. Going too heavy can be a real risk for increased chance of injury. Testing your strength isn't building strength. Best of luck

[@bammbamm2746]

You want your head to feel like it’s gonna explode 🤯. Leg drive should feel like you aren’t being held up by the bench but more by your glutes. Also shoulder injuries suck man. I have a shoulder injury from wrestling. It’s okay to go heavy but make sure you change your bench to prevent injury in the shoulder.

[@alapanmitra9635]

Do you think That One should bench with their shoulder blade not depressed and retracted and without arch in back for hypertrophy goals , there are some recently on youtube(Eugene tao made a video on this) and controversies about this topic , what do you think?

[@BradArbic]

Alapan, you are right. How you train should really be a reflection of your personal goals. How you perform your lifts and conduct your training will entirely dependent on desired results.

I noticed the assassin's creed tat, then the gears and after that I had hoped for a halo tat lol then I saw it lol. Dream come true lol

The real star in this video are Brad's traps. HOLY MAYONNAISE BATMAN!

[@BradArbic]

Lol, thanks EV!

[@parkerrish9024]

Man something I did to increase bench was get my shoulder blades down and back and also sit on my upper traps!

[@SzatStrength]

Glad a tip helped you out!

[@BradArbic]

Better positioning and mechanics when you do! Thanks Parker.

[@DeepPoeticSociety]

What do you mean by sitting on your traps?

[@bigb67676]

@@DeepPoeticSociety you want all of your weight on your upper body to be as high as you can get it. A good way to see if you're on your traps is to try to look down (towards your chest) if you cant get your neck to move that way very well you know your up on your traps

[@DeepPoeticSociety]

@@bigb67676 Very detailed answer! Thank you 🙏

[@masoneymard4684]

i have the hardest time bringing my shoulders down. i retract so much my traps fire then when i try to bring them down i burn in my lats. i can’t tell if i’m doing it right. i have a strong bench but i never feel like my pecs are firing

[@BradArbic]

Honestly Mason, your pecs aren't the major driver of your bench. They are really important on the initial push but shortly off the chest the triceps take over. It doesn't surprise me you don't feel much in the chest when you bench. I don't either.

Dope video

[@SamSyharath]

One of the things I like is wearing Olys while benching. I feel more leg drive/tightness with them on vs flats or on toes (toes feels too unstable for me)

[@BradArbic]

Depending on leg length, some people (usually shorter lifters) will use blocks, or plates on the floor so they can reach better and get more drive. I also know friends who prefer to bench with lifters on. Thanks for checking it out

Thanks for watching BB. The gym was amazing. I can't believe how many awesome gyms there are in the Columbus area.

[@bammbamm2746]

@@BradArbic it looked like a fun gym. I could do both my powerlifting and CrossFit there. Bench press is also one of my favorite things. It’s good to have a refresher every once n awhile to make sure my technique isn’t lacking.

Great video but I was hoping Joey would bench like 4 plates

[@SzatStrength]

Maybe soon! Not sure where my bench is :)

[@bammbamm2746]

Don’t be fooled. He can bench 4 plates with one arm.

[@krejn]

@@SzatStrength if you got 315 for 12, you got 405 easy

[@ashleykissane93]

I think as power lifting has become more popular and knowledge like this comes around, the idea of having a suicide grip on bench is almost nonexistent now.

[@BradArbic]

Thanks for watching Ashley. I think grip is an individual preference. I still do my best benching with a suicide grip. Only recently have I attempted to revert back to a full grip, but even then I lack the same drive and comfort I have with suicide. My point isn't to make one grip better than another. That can only be determined by the lifter. My point is that everyone is different, and there may be legitimate reasons a lifter elects one form or position over another. Who am I to cast a one size fits all rule for everyone?

[@Behindjoonao]

10 reps or less 1 breath? That can't be right.. surely..

[@BradArbic]

Brendan, it's true. It may be hard if you've never done it before. And much like free divers, you need to work up on your tolerance for holding your breath. I would recommend started with holding your breath for 3-5 reps, pause at the top and breathe, reset your position as best you can, and continue with the set. After a while you will get more and more comfortable with holding your breath.
