@@tomlloyd3259 I have always been quite active during my teens; push-ups, sit-ups, jogging, the likes. Growing up in South Africa, there's a strong 'jock culture' during high school of wanting to be strong and able to fight, or at least looking intimidating, lol. I got my gym membership during COVID, so I might be approaching 3 years of weight training now. How about you?
Did u break through. I was stuck around 85kg for what felt like forever. I did a set of 5 with reps of 10,5,2,5,10 and ate everything in sight. Now im hitting PRs again. The last 5 and 10 u might only get like 3 or 4 and like 7 or 8
I'd advocate for progressive overload, BUT do not try to max out on every single session. Sometimes varying your sessions, that is, one session with light weights for higher reps, with other sessions of heavier weight for less reps served me well in the build up to hitting 225lbs (100kg). Of importance too, would be to strengthen the supporting muscles, such as the shoulders and triceps. Personal favourites: standing overhead BB press, close grip tricep presses. Disclaimer: not an expert, at all, these are just my two cents.
Nice hard work. Left push falling behind, typical. Maybe back the weight down slightly, add a 2.5lb plate to left side, and climb back up. Just my 2 cents worth.
Hi there! Thank you for showing love. My advice would be not to consistently push for PR's. Having said that, sometimes taking a break from benching for a week or two, and then attempting a PR might produce promising results. Also, try to do working sets of 6 - 15 reps within 60 - 80% of your 1RM. I hope this helps. Grind to conquer.
Yes. I am right-handed, so my right arm is dominant. Compared to my right wrist, my left wrist also tilts back slightly towards the latter part of the set. This, though, is not uncommon; I have noticed a lot of people struggle with muscle imbalances. Currently, I only do flat dumbell benches for this exact reason. I accept the benefit of filming one's sets are that you can identify these minor issues, and consciously try to rectify them.
Good job. That was a quality set with nice and slow reps !
Appreciate it!
Clean set , gj
What a clean and controlled bench press
With 225 i have done 6 to 8 reps every 2 minutes for 5 sets now I feel truly strong. I could probably hit 275 once.
I think you can hit way more than 275. Probably closer to 285 or maybe 290.
Left hand
Strong benching, man.
Song??
Well done, dude...well done!
Shot :-)
move the string from wrap out of your hand.
Good lift
Great lift friend, God bless❤
nice lift, whats your one rep max. My one rep max is unkown but i can do 100 kg with a few reps on a good day.
Hi there Abdul,
My 1rm is 130kg.
The goal is 140kg, but slow progress is better than no progress.
Best of luck, tank.
God. People like you are annoying. Just go to a gym why are you engaging people on UA-cam?
Use a one rep max calculator. Theyre fairly accurate
Nope @@SolareofAstora

You could bench at least 140kg-150kg one rep max 💪
Well done 💪💪😉😉 It looks like your left arm is a little weaker than the right arm? I could be wrong 🙂
nah, it's a little dysbalance - nothing to worry about. Many people have a disbalance somewhere.

What's your height?

Your left arm is weak sorry to say cause the right arm was higher than the left just by a bit other than that you got this champ
@@alaurrahman5206 Schweet! Thanks, man. I'm working on it, doing unilateral exercises to remedy the muscular imbalances.

@@Steven_Esterhuyse can you suggest me any accessory exercise which gonna boom my bench ?
@@60sumerrathod82 I could maybe just suggest strengthening the supporting muscles; triceps and shoulders. Military press and tricep exercises.

Why do you have to record yourself doing a basic bench press? You need attention that bad?
Go to the gym instead of being a keyboard warrior. Let's see you try. This guy is doing a great job. He'll be at 4 plates in no time.
Why do you need to vent your insecurities under someone's video? Your real life really that pathetic? Jealousy is a sign of weakness!
Looooooooser
Why do you need to hate on a video like that? You need attention that bad?
He is doing what every gym bro dream of, its genuinely awesome.
