    In summary:
    1) Warm up rotator cuff
    2) Arch lower back
    3) Keep upper back tight by keeping shoulder blades together
    4) Keep the bar right above elbows

    • @andyimb7180
      @andyimb7180 8 років тому +113

      stevenan93 Negative for several reasons
      1. Maybe you'll shit yourself at the gym by the power output during the workout, which means you can't keep working out (you can though if you like smelling like shit and sitting in shit :p)
      2. Stomach ache will keep you from going to the gym
      3. After going to the hospital (to get the shit out of you) you wont be at full power meaning your workout will also lack of power
      4. If nothing of the above happened you probably went to the bathroom or just died bcs of all the shit that is in your intestines
      Hope I helped you, I was kinda bored at class :p

He's humble and honest about what he is, knows, and practices. He doesn't act like everything he says is the best way. More youtubers should be like him so there is less misinformation and misconceptions in the fitness world

    best way to increase your bench: keep benching what your bench until you feel completely comfortable and confident with it. then once it feels more or less easier for you, slap a 5 on each side and so on and so forth

    • @ImPhoRealz
      @ImPhoRealz 6 років тому +34

      Outlaw this right here is a good technique. I weigh 145 and managed to do 250x2. I’m dropping back down weight and working on getting 225 x 10 and 205x15. Once I can do the smaller weight comfortably I will move up and attempt a new max again. My goal is to get to 315 for a one rep max with the same body weight.

      All of my lifts kept going up slowly and there was always progress. but my bench press was all over the place, one week was really good, others were crap at which my regular bench weight squished me. What I started then doing us superset ting bench press with Pullups, worked like a charm and my bench press is always the same and it progresses weekly. On top of that I do shoulder warmup etc

    • @mcfry13
      @mcfry13 8 років тому +3

      take your time. unless you are competing, lifting is a marathon, not a sprint. either increase the weight by 5lbs each week or try to focus on getting to 10 reps unassited for a couple of weeks and then move up a few lbs. also work on your back and triceps as they will help you improve your lifts too. also it might help to hit up chest twice a week as long as you spread it out and dont overwork your muscles.

I haven’t ever tried to do the warm up portion the way he did it in this video but as far the key points to focus on while benching he nailed it. Only other things is hand placement and breathing and that varies person to person so all in all great vid

    The way I increased my bench super fast (for beginners);
    Training: trained 5 sets of 5 reps on the bench (very heavy). Once I could complete 3/4 entire sets with no spot, I'd move up by 5kg
    Nutrition: made sure I was in a huge caloric surplus, and ate a gram of protein per pound of bodyweight

    This is very informative overall. Took me a year to realize all this when benching and my bench immediately jumped once my tech was perfected. Like went from a paltry 225 to 255 in two weeks of proper form. Was so thrilled and my plateau was over. So I then went back and every single exercise I lightened weight and worked on exact form and my gains hit strong. Form over showing off weight, any day.

    I am a bit late, but saw this a few days ago and decided to give it a try. I used to do 80kg x4 and 90 x2 (3 with a spotter).
    Today I hit some chest and with Bradley's warm up and technique I hit 80kg for 8 (had 1-2 more) and then last set 90kg x4 with ease. I would've gone for 1-2 more reps on my last set but I didn't have a spotter. Thanks for the great advice, Brad!
    Next chest day I'm going to try 100kg for the first time ever. I think I got it.

    Hey Bradley, i'm actually achieving more strenght and ability to lift more weight with less repetitions with the first bench press tip that u rule out out in this video.It does seem as if my lats help a lot more rather than excluding them and shortening the range of motion. My feet stand different from yours, as they are more leened towards front rather than squared and separated from each other. I am at 215 with your technique and at 225 with the technique that u actually rule out in this video. Props for all the hard work and info.

  • @lachlanbarkla3760

    When I think of Bradley Martyn, a few words that come to mind are bodybuilder and power lifter... BUT when I look deeper into his true abilities, I see an instrument. I see a unique hybrid that looks like a bodybuilder with amazing and optimal functional mechanics that also come across as traits of a powerlifter. Yet, something truly inspiring lies within Bradley's capabities.. explosiveness, power, speed, flexibilility, mobility to name a few... Ultimatley, he is a physiological superhuman
