I’d really love to find a dead lift and benchpress focused program. I’m sure it would have some squatting in it but that’s the two lifts that I think I’d really like to bring out. Any thoughts I did just subscribe to your base strength AI it seems pretty cool, thank you for creating it
Great advice at the end... As someone with shoulder pain... I have done this forever and it works every time. When something hurts, but is still usable... I half the weight and slow the motion down by 4x with a full stretch of the muscle. 99% of the time the pain will be gone in under a month.
It's basically just a month long deload. Yeah that should heal you dawg. Although I'd be questioning your training if you feel like you need a whole ass month to deload
@@psyoperator The issue is that connective tissue (tendons, ligaments, fascia, the sort of "membrane" surrounding all joints and muscles), tales MUCH LONGERRRR to heal. In fact muscles are the ones that heal or "recover" fastest, first. good luck
Noice dude! Did the same yesterday with....uh, less plates 😬 Only 3 months in seriously training, so hopefully I get there someday (same bodyweight 179lb)
@@Guitar_Wolf awesome, yea I’m like 7-8 years in but with a lot of breaks because I work concrete and when it gets busy the amount of fatigue makes it impossible to really gain strength or size. If I trained correctly and consistently from day 1 I could’ve done this like 5 years ago.
Yes dude love that! Its great to not be married 😂 and do WTF you want I got the cheap CAP rack with the pull up bar across the top and it's awesome for squats and barbell bench (and whatever else) Inexpensive, but surprisingly sturdy for what it is

I just got an SSB instead and wish I had done so way earlier. I don't compete anyway so even less of a reason to keep trying to shoehorn myself into such an awkward position.
Added pin press and it’s been a game changer for how much speed I can get on my bench, I’m chasing a 3 plate bench RN (140kg in the uk, I’m at 135kg) and pin presses have helping a ton. Also just extra upper body work in general seems to be helping, breaking rep PRs near weekly so it’s on the way
I was here about 2 months ago. Did a lot of 120kg close grip on smith and also pause pressing and pin press. Added up and I got my 1 rep on 140. Also, good luck to you.
Great video! I'm surprised you didn't mention technique in regards to shoulder pain Meadows talks about not letting your chest cave in (bird chest) and keeping the shoulder blades back and down throughout the whole range, all while keeping the chest pushed towards the sky I went from hating barbell bench (mid 40s age) to really liking it and also getting big progress in strength and size. Shoulders feel fantastic and strong
Definitely agree on this one. I like pin presses at the bottom better than board presses! Pin presses off the chest are one of the key variations that has increased my bench press!
After 3 years of working out and 1 year powerlifting, i got my self a coach, the first thing he did was completely reworked my bench technique and cut off any classic benching. I ran accessories for two months straight, but I got stronger from sessions to session
A book that changed my life in ways that I never could imagine is "Secret Testosterone Nexus of Evolution".Drop whatever you're doing right now and go find that book. Trust me after I implemented things from the book my testosterone levels went beast mode
7 weeks with right shoulder pain in bench press, i’m gonna give chaos bench a try. Weird thing is i don’t feel anything in shoulder presses, only bench
I've always had shoulder issues and I found feet up bench was a great variation to allow me to bench pain free when my shoulder decides to be pissed off.

Advice for people with tiny wrists? I have no joke microscopic wrists (5.7in circumference) as a 5’8 180lb man. I genuinely gain 40-50 pounds with wrist wraps which I am told is NOT normal. But I don’t want to fully rely on them if possible. Can wrists actually strengthen/grow in size? I’ve worked out a year and half and gained no wrist size or strength that I can notice
Lots of forearm training, but forearm extensions, not regular forearm curls since those Will most likely actually had imbalances. Also wide bar bench if possible and pause the reps at the top, and tempo work.
Thank you, this was more what I was looking for although not the best answer I was hoping for :( I do direct forearm training 3x a week but no improvement in wrist size or seemingly tendon strength
Coeliac disease is the worst. All good things contains gluten. Beer, pasta, bread, cookies and so on. When I had to start eat gluten free I dreamt of eating cookies and normal bread. I mourned for half a year almost
Bro try nizoral shampoo on you face and head. Leave it on for a minute then rinse. I have the same thing and went to a dermatologist and it wasn't gluten intolerance it was subhorreic dermatitis from oily skin and a fungus that normally lives in harmony with us on our skin but because of oily skin it goes crazy 🤪 oh, and the doc prescribed me the nizoral but get it at Walmart it's cheaper
@MichaelMAuth Head and Shoulders doesn't have ketaconozole in it. That's the antifungal medicine in it that makes Nizoral work. It's the only thing that's worked for me.
@@StrengthAndConditioning61 yep the ketaconozole is critical to this. Also just because your skin isn't red doesn't mean you don't have an infection, my stubborn forehead acne turned out to be fungal and the Nizoral cleared up in weeks what other products failed to do in years.
I’ve been gluten free since I was 12. Used to be 1st percentile height and weight, severely malnourished because I ate gluten. Once I stopped, I doubled in bodyweight and grew 6 inches in a year
@@Gus-MooseNah, bruh. Being malnourished can severely affect how tall you grow during adolescence-by a difference of several inches. I wish I had known I was a celiac when I was a teenager, but I never displayed symptoms.
@@Digitalisx So if the guy my reply was for had been 25, do you still think he'd grow 6 inches in a year? Don't think so.... Not saying food allergies aren't real but if you change something in your diet when you're 12-13, say you start eating blueberries, is your growth spurt because of the blueberries or puberty?
Nice helpful vid particularly when you got to the injury/pain issues. We particularly liked "find the motion that doesn't hurt" to keep training around and through it. BTW, food allergies aren't 'woke' and theirs nothing wrong with that either.
Mmm i think pec strength helps at the bottom but don’t you think triceps help to? I always found that I’m faster off my chest with a closer grip and slower the wider I ago. I thought I read some where is the closer grip you have you have more velocity off the chest. For myself the once my fingers on the rings I get very slow off my chest and my shoulders will start to hurt . Sweet spot for me is quarter to a half inche pinky away from rings. Love your content btw found your channel a few days ago and have been watching all your vids very good information you got to soak in
Sometimes a minor injury can be a blessing. It forces you to drop loads and focus on improving mechanics, or trying variations. I had a bad back tweak a few years back that was easily triggered when I lost tightness on squats. I got really good at staying tight during that time, and did a lot of long pause squats.
Real talk about the allergies... It's becoming SO common these days that is disturbing. I'm not pro conspiracies, but i think some people in the top kinda said "fuck em - let's poison them and make some money". There's dangerous levels of heavy metals even in salt, not to even mention stuff that's made from powders - bread, protein shakes, anything ultra processed etc. I developed a cat allergy and skin rashes that were incredibly bad and didn't go away until i did more of a carnivore approach, and now over a year later i can eat plants again, my rash went away, ALL of my allergies went away, including my "genetic" seasonal allergies that i had since i was a kid, etc. They are putting something in the food!
The food is getting worse but you fuckers also need to learn how to eat and you're much less likely to get gluten or lactose allergy out of no where. In Australia it is very hard to find a loaf of bread made from bread Ingredients. Every second cunt has a gluten allergy. Heal you're guts with quality food. Gluten allergy is mostly self inflicted, you wrecked you're own guts mate
I don't think anyone is purposely trying to poison their customers. I think that cheap processes such as drying wheat with roundup could be the problem. Farmers have been told by regulators that it is completely safe and they believe them.
I used to be a power lifter stopped bench press and working out and started doing cardio trying to build my bench press back up had a 465 bench press trying to rebuild after losing over a 125 pounds of weight need help
I have serious question about BenchPress, if someone with lots of exp can tell me: im weak when pressing with regular slim olympic bars. I feel like i cant transfer power through my wrist to the bar. When the bar is a little bit "fatter" not like axle, but there are oly bars that are slim and some are a bit fatter, i feel like im transfering power right through my wrist to the bar, i just feel it. I dont believe i have that big hands, but I cant think of anything that solves this...I have that one bar i can press with and if i take slimmer one im weaker a lot....is there anything i can do?
You talk about sandbags, axles, push press, etc. But I don’t remember seeing anything about logs right? Could be wrong. Anyway good video. I didn’t bench press for 6 months just overhead pressed and my bench stayed that same in those 6 months.
Flat Bench was ruined for me after I got used to full stretch exercises for chest. Flat bench feels like half range of motion to me now so I stopped doing it. Incline is fine still
@jaymcn I would totally recommend to do incline pause bench and forget about normal benching, them after some time returning to normal benching and you'll be surprised by how strong you are. I don't know you personally but a deload might be very beneficial. Good luck.
As simple as more efficient Programming , you're in a surplus/ maintenance at least I assume. Recovery? all depends on the lifestyle everyone's life is different of course
I have the same issue read face rocea mine was histamine intolerance so I needed 6 supplements increase my histamine breakdown this improved my sleep and hemroids rocea go away lol
Coming from a powerlifter who didn’t do any accessories besides close variations of s/b/d for 8 years (due to purposely staying at 75kg) a point I learned the hard way about neglecting any bicep training or any back training besides deadlift variations- The rate of tendonitis and overuse injuries are astronomically more frequent when they’re neglected. And while they aren’t primary movers the increased stability makes a huge difference that you never noticed you needed before. The benefits of being able to train more consistently throughout the year outweighs the downsides of having extra bodyweight that isn’t a prime mover
I have hashimotos disease, and have been gluten free for almost 2 years. Nothing to it, you'll adapt and learn how to eat everything you used to eat, minus the gluten. Good luck!
Itll take more than a few weeks to get all the gluten out of your system. My functional medicine guy explained it to me before but I don't remember the specifics. Just stick to it and don't get daunted by the time it takes.
brother I have been looking at that skin for the duration of my time here and thinking that boy needs to stop eating wheat and enjoy a full fat salad dressing. I went through the same damn thing. I feel your pain intensely my man, godspeed and good luck. It gets easier with time. Greek and vietnamese food make life not suck and wheat free beer is just as good
6'6. long arm guys have a distinct disadvantage at how far back their elbows need to travel. My advice is don't drop your elbows too far below your shoulders and stop trying to compete with those with shorter range of motion and better levers. Even if this means saying that you rep a 140kg even though you are an inch above your chest. Your advantage is torque and you wont see it on the bench press in particular. Dont go deeper than other people and risk shoulder health. Switch to dumbbells and be happy with a moderate bench. We aren't all hafthor or Brian Shaw and need to take our shoulder health seriously. No-one likes trigonometry but it still exists in the strength world.
@@Isaiah_McIntosh hell no. That wasnt what i meant. Just be careful if you have long arms like me. Sports always has a physical adaption that someone is better, taller etc for basket ball. Tall guys have to watch how far your elbows go down as it puts extra stress on shoulders. That is all. And if powerlifting is your thing then you just have to deal with that if it does happen. I have spent enough years striving for a 150kg bench! Just be mindful that your elbows have to come down waaay further than someone with say short arms and a barrel chest. That is just the difference between lifting and lifting related sport.
@ not really. there is no mathematical scenario where lengthening the arms would directly improve bench press mechanics. The physics of the bench press heavily favor shorter arms due to the relationship between force, torque, and range of motion. You are just strong! If your travel distance was shorter and your levers shorter then you would probably even press more!
What happened to Equal Protection Under the Law? It is a fundamental civil right to politically align with whomever and whatever you prefer. For any reason. Any argument against this is is anti-democracy at its core. A person is obligated to make a Gay cake but a person can be turned away for whom they vote for? This is dangerous fascism and must be addressed at once.
@@black0ut_53 that’s probably why she also says that you will need to lower the weight at first when you make the change. But ultimately you will lift more.
Pretty sure, her general rule of thumb was grip width is 2x width between shoulder Regardless, it is about ensuring forearm is perpendicular to barbell on all planes of motion.
I've never missed a bench at the bottom. Ever. If you're missing at the bottom, I feel like your loading is completely off. That shit should never happen.

Coming from a powerlifter who didn’t do any accessories besides close variations of s/b/d for 8 years (due to purposely staying at 75kg) a point I learned the hard way about neglecting any bicep training or any back training besides deadlift variations-
The rate of tendonitis and overuse injuries are astronomically more frequent when they’re neglected.
And while they aren’t primary movers the increased stability makes a huge difference that you never noticed you needed before. The benefits of being able to train more consistently throughout the year outweighs the downsides of having extra bodyweight that isn’t a prime mover
For a newbie/beginner is it worth it to do DB press instead of barbell until one maxes out the DBs in the gym?
No, Flat bench is easier to set up than dumbbell. Both are great
Just do db press for a couple sets after your 3x5
Week 3 into bull mastiff and I’m eating lead and drinking mercury I feel great
I have hashimotos disease, and have been gluten free for almost 2 years. Nothing to it, you'll adapt and learn how to eat everything you used to eat, minus the gluten. Good luck!
Don't listen to the haters, i think you look GREAT
Anything that makes you spend more time in the mid-range is going to help and make sure that you can grind through. Yeah put some bands on the bar!
Azelaic acid might be worth trying as well.
A cream with ivermectin and nicotinamide helps with rosacea :)
Itll take more than a few weeks to get all the gluten out of your system. My functional medicine guy explained it to me before but I don't remember the specifics. Just stick to it and don't get daunted by the time it takes.
brother I have been looking at that skin for the duration of my time here and thinking that boy needs to stop eating wheat and enjoy a full fat salad dressing. I went through the same damn thing. I feel your pain intensely my man, godspeed and good luck. It gets easier with time. Greek and vietnamese food make life not suck and wheat free beer is just as good
For real, i always laughed at the anti-gluten woo girls...jokes on me.
Request. You have in this and some other vids mentioned differences between hypertrophy training vs strength. Could you focus on that some time?
There are actually an insane amount of gluten free options luckily.
👍👍👍

6'6. long arm guys have a distinct disadvantage at how far back their elbows need to travel. My advice is don't drop your elbows too far below your shoulders and stop trying to compete with those with shorter range of motion and better levers. Even if this means saying that you rep a 140kg even though you are an inch above your chest. Your advantage is torque and you wont see it on the bench press in particular. Dont go deeper than other people and risk shoulder health. Switch to dumbbells and be happy with a moderate bench. We aren't all hafthor or Brian Shaw and need to take our shoulder health seriously. No-one likes trigonometry but it still exists in the strength world.
so you're saying give up on being a powerlifter before you start.......
@@Isaiah_McIntosh hell no. That wasnt what i meant. Just be careful if you have long arms like me. Sports always has a physical adaption that someone is better, taller etc for basket ball. Tall guys have to watch how far your elbows go down as it puts extra stress on shoulders. That is all. And if powerlifting is your thing then you just have to deal with that if it does happen. I have spent enough years striving for a 150kg bench! Just be mindful that your elbows have to come down waaay further than someone with say short arms and a barrel chest. That is just the difference between lifting and lifting related sport.
See it’s funny cause I’m 6’4 also with long arms and I found the exact opposite works for me with a near 3 plate bench, everyone’s different I guess
@@Isaiah_McIntoshbecause he's not a manlet or otherwise he would have to compete as a superheavyweight.
@ not really. there is no mathematical scenario where lengthening the arms would directly improve bench press mechanics. The physics of the bench press heavily favor shorter arms due to the relationship between force, torque, and range of motion. You are just strong! If your travel distance was shorter and your levers shorter then you would probably even press more!
W
first?
Man your arms are short. Watching you bench, the arms don’t have to move much
You can't just say it
What happened to Equal Protection Under the Law? It is a fundamental civil right to politically align with whomever and whatever you prefer. For any reason. Any argument against this is is anti-democracy at its core. A person is obligated to make a Gay cake but a person can be turned away for whom they vote for? This is dangerous fascism and must be addressed at once.

Why i m watching this video in hindi

Most people can add plates to their bench by just widening their grip. That’s what Jen Thompson says, and I think she might know.
Idk man I’m pretty sure most people can add tendonitis to their shoulders by widening their grip haha
@@black0ut_53 that’s probably why she also says that you will need to lower the weight at first when you make the change. But ultimately you will lift more.
Pretty sure, her general rule of thumb was grip width is 2x width between shoulder
Regardless, it is about ensuring forearm is perpendicular to barbell on all planes of motion.
@@freebornfloor1600 Absolutely. Exactly what she says.
I might do this base strength Ai thing …..

I've never missed a bench at the bottom. Ever. If you're missing at the bottom, I feel like your loading is completely off. That shit should never happen.
