Been on UA-cam for years, watched countless tutorials on bench press, this is by far the best on UA-cam. Covered every detail, no gaps, excellent gentlemen!
Sebastian can give you one even better ua-cam.com/video/63XZsTMdpTQ/v-deo.html
It's a much more complicated movement than many people make it out to be, at least to do it correctly and most efficiently. I've never really quite gotten the feel down.
It's the most technical out of the 3 compound lifts
Been lifting 7 years. I still make technical adjustments and learn new things.
@@mimoosa7390I dunno if Id say most technical, I think that award goes to the squat, but definitely in contention for being the 2nd hardest imo
Such a great sessions and tips we really needed it to avoid injuries proud of you and thanks to Julius for being the strongest 🥊🐉
Glad you liked this video!
@@SquatUniversity greetings 🖖first time commenter here but ive been following your channel for several months now.
I responded here because my I've been doing videos applying an experimental set of exercises targeted at karate style punching strength.
I'm studying the bench press right now and so these vidoes are super timely.
I've been doing a bench press variant with a tricep bar because of the vertical hand orientation.
It makes for a more exaggerated j-motion and the bar settling over the
navel.
Would you consider this exercise safe? You could check any of my recent videos for reference. It's exercise 5 out of 6 so near the end of the vid.
5:04 lol Still moving him like hes not stable, but then I realised he could effortlesly move anyone in that position 🤣
Just saw this before my chest day! Keep up the good work man, this channel is a life saver.
same
4 contact points, head back butt feet. feet behind knees. press down thru all points. eyes level with the bar, slight j curve pathway to touch sternum.
Great tipps not even mentioning scapula retraction and depression and what to do with your upper body is a missed opportunity for the "ULTIMATE" Bench Press Tutorial, especially for injury prevention.
lots of much needed heads up in this video, thank god people are out here uploading content like this🙌🏻
This video is goldmine. Especially hand placement part. Giving a cue so simple like push up comfort is fantastic and destroys all the textbook believers.
Not really, I'm sure there are plenty of other lifters who keep it textbook and see great
Julius Maddox for the win! Great collab! I would like you guys to expand on leg drive in future videos.
Thank you for the awesomeness!
Awesome tutorial! I was looking for a video that gave me a detailed why behind everything. Really appreciate you two sharing your wisdom with us!
Great content Dr , i didn't know we have to use all the muscle to bench press . thankyou for knowledge from experts and from you too.
Awesome having Maddox show up for this demonstration.
Thank you so much. Now I know why my bicep tendon starting feeling wierd. that along with ur other videos of shoulder strengthening. u are the best when it comes PT and working out correctly. thak you for keeping me away from the hosptial😅
Clear and concise. Great job gents!
Great video, clear and to the point. Thanks for uploading. Will absolutely be tweaking my positioning and bar path slightly next time I'm on the bench, I can already tell this is going to help
I'm blessed by your videos DR ! All my respect!
fantastic! I was too high and my head was coming off. eyes were not at bar level. Tried correcting this and got 135 x 3 reps after struggling with 135 for 1. Bad ass. THANK YOU
Wow! Julius!! Awesome vid 💪🏼💪🏼
Having Julius Maddox teach you bench press is like having Johnny sins teach you how to pick up chicks
I can guarantee Julius Maddox can pick up way more chick's than Johnny sins.
@@beesmongeese2978 It was a pun, now read it again.
It's like having chuck Norris teach you how to fight
Mehhh
Leonado DiCaprio or Drake would be the Julius Maddux of pickup up chicks. Johnny sins could teach you how to bang chicks tho
Great video & content, only high quality stuff here!
Awesome video!
Boy lifted that 782 mad easy! 🤯
Really appreciate these videos thanks man
Thank you, it was helpful as always.
thank you that felps a lot bless you more , not too much talking but straight to the point , the way i like it
Another great tutorial!
Great movie, thanks guys!
You're welcome!
Wow this explains so many of the issues I’ve been having in bench. Looks like a PR is in my future
Btw I recommend deloading if you are going to drastically change your form if you. Are doing 100 kg for 12 reps right now the. Deload to about 50 kg for 12 reps and then chenge technique if you change thechnique immediately you may get injured
thank you guys
Please explain proper shoulders position before press. And how to keep Your shoulders blades locked when You are moving bar form rack before press. Great video!
Great tutorial
Thank you, will try it out today 🎉
A true wealth of knowledge for my bench press attempt. Thank you!
Awesome stuff

The ultimate maddox teaching us 💪🔥
Added to my training 💪
My bench changed overnight after watching this video. Its completely different when you put the tension on your legs.
Super tutorial very helpful

1:00 Big Boy lifts his head everytime he benches, everytime.

The ULTIMATE Military Press Tutorial next
awesome, thanks!
Thanks guys
You're welcome!
Could you do these for like every lift?!?! Thanks for all you do!!!
I'll try this tomorrow
Good stuff
@Squat University, nice video. Thanks! Any advice on how to avoid shoulder pain on the bench? How to retract shoulders, keep it tight? Do you recommend to focus on trying to bend the bar? Keep up the great content!
Thanks! And we actually have a lot of shoulder pain content for bench press coming soon!
Same query.
One thing I only learnt recently is that 'tensing/engaging your shoulders' does NOT mean squeezing your shoulder blades together. In fact when benching you should pull your shoulder blades down, and slightly apart to engage the right muscles and avoid injury.
Correct me if Im wrong.
@@SquatUniversity Anything on tennis/golfers elbow from bench press?
insane to get detailed tips from the literal best in the world lol. wild times
good tips. i will try adjust my feet and eye position to see if champ is right
Wow - thanks -my teenager has just challenged me to a bench press competition. this helps1
Thank you :)
I seem to have caused an external oblique strain due to excessive weight while working on the bench press. The pain is right below one of the pectorals. Is there a set of exercises that can help with recovery and possibly prevention? Are they mentioned in "Rebuilding Milo'? And what causes this injury? When can one return to the bench after this injury? An response to these questions will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Thankyou!
You're welcome
Thank you
You're welcome
God tier bencher. Form is very important I wonder if Maddox uses a slingshot or used one around the high 300 sticking points back in the day
This is like having Usain Bolt teach you how to run
This man who demonstrate bench or me we look😎 like day and night close the beast Maddox
Can you do a video on grip for wrist stability?
Watch out Julius, I'ma come for your record now!
Hi Aaron. What about about scapula movement during bench press, should it be pinched all the time, or move along during press? 💪
Keep it retracted. Allowed it to move during the bench can compromise your shoulder stability.
“This is what i want where i can’t move him easily” proceeds to move his whole body with his finger tips
Can't believe this is free
if the champ says so, I listen
Julius Maddox was impressive as a presenter
🔥
Was hoping for a little more substance on especially the setup. Head and butt on bench for competition benching is fine and dandy, but are there actual disadvantages for non powerlifters, i.e. compromised spine, energy leaks etc. How to properly set up the j-cups when you're not working on your usual bench/rack equipment combination. Good tutorial and Julius is a beast without a doubt but I'm still missing vital info in an "Ultimate" tutorial, sorry.
@squatuniversity, can you talk about the grip and wrist position as I used to bend my wrist and that caused a lot of pain
Ahh you didn't talk about bracing the core in this!!
These are some great points. I always used the bar to guide my hand position
this dudes voice is full on antigayness. pure chad
Mmmhhmm, this is missing the best tip I ever got (from a Larry Wheels video), tucking your shoulderblades under before the lift. made a huge difference to my performance...
Any tip for low back pain making bench press??
Should you hit your sternum each rep or should you stop about two finger high from your sternum? My trainer have told me to do it like that but I've been hitting them in the initial sets. A big confusion on my part, would be grateful if you could clear it up.
when julius said "see my hand through his back" im surprised he hadnt just punched a hole thru Aaron 🤣
I just don’t understand why SU subscribers are under 1 milion. It’s best of the best.
I really appreciate it!
I was thinking that the bar path, is slightly different on the way up. A bit more to your shoulders first, because than you are in a stronger position. But i don’t want to argue against the world record holder.
Grip width is definitely individual but would’ve been nice to add in what observations were made to determine your grip placement based off your push up
The most comfortable distance from the center you have with your hand placement for push ups is about the distance you should have for bench press. Also try sitting on your knees and lean forward till you fall. Catch yourself with your hands at the most comfortable and strongest position
I know its camera depth but when Julius got under the bar, Aaron looked like a teenager
I looked like a teenager the entire time...he's one big man
Now I’m confused. I just watched one of your shorts where you said that the bar path is not an exact mimic on the way back up, but rather the bar path should go towards your head more initially, and then proceed straight vertically. Now which is it…?
I like the advice of shifting the body further down on the bench so that the eyes are in line with the barbell. However, in that position, I cannot on my own lift the barbell loaded with significant weight. What am I doing wrong?
How come the bar path you advise differs from other advices like jeff nippard who argue that on the ascent of the bar the path should first go towards the rack and not up to most efficiently minimize the moment arm and generate more force?
I was wondering too. Studies of elite Bench Presser show the same path you described on the ascent, where the descent is as described in the Video. Novice Lifters often do it the other way around. Would be interesting to see what Julius exact Bench Press Path lokks in competition.
Is this position best for building muscle or power lifting.
Back? Or upper back/shoulders?
@squat University Do you think is possible to snatch / squat snatch with dislocated shoulders? #squat university
👏👏👏👏👏
How to control bar swings while going down??? Sometimes one side goes up fast??
around 7:50 maddox is doing some reps... one hand higher than the other when bar is resting on his chest, it would seem like one shoulder has more internal rotation than the other
Giving the J path of the bar, am I better off using a free weight bar, rather than a Smith machine set up?
How do you brace for multiple reps in all SBD?
What movement do the scapula do while you benchpress?
🤘💪
i still don't get how you should use your lats while benchpressing. Should you use them to pull your shoulders down? Or use them as if you are doing a lat pose (so upward rotation of the scapula i guess) ?
I wondered why this sick video has such low views then i realised it was post 18mins ago lol
Haha - thanks for checking it out!
