2 years bench is the HARDEST to increase after 2 plates... hitting chest 2x a week for about 6months strait worked best and doing heavy incline

strykn what do you bench now? what is/was your max?


I only increase bench when I bench twice a week with one day being on 2-3 rep HEAVY. and the other day including incline. like strykn I think incline helps a lot too. i think it helps with my drive from the bottom.


If I bench twice a week I can climb up to 285-295ish and slowly keep climbing. If I stop focussing on it and bench once a week it drops back to about 245 and then it takes like 3 months to get back up again.

Im determined to hit 3 plates this spring. Based on how things are going, maybe within 6 weeks.

anyone notice how he punches the camera like 10 times

Did you guys bother to 'load' on your creatine? (20g a day as per label)
Picked up a 1000g container but I researched and studies say it's not necessary.

I sorta load ya. Maybe not 20g probably 15. A bulging scoop in the morning and one at nite. for 5 days.

new misc. lol. u aware


forum.muscle-shred.com/forumdisplay.php?18-Misc

yeah, i load to get that stuff into the system asap. do you guys cycle creatine? is it neccessary?

Rxtar: u said before u wear gloves for everything except deads. How are ur calluses? Mine are getting bad.

For the first time I tried close grip bench for tris this am. Feels good!

I gotta eat.more. Gone from 200 to 185 in 12 weeks.

Incline helps so much
Smith incline is great also

i find that adding 3board bench on the smith machine has really increased my bench press as well. Well i guess im not lifting as much as you guys but not too sure how well the 3board bench helps when ur aiming for 3+ plates. Its def helped with my explosiveness near the top

I found that chains, bands, and boards help me get to and past the 3plate bench.

i do about 3 months on 1 month off normally. and then take 3-4 months all summer off when cutting

smooth and soft as butter! yet tough from work. its strange



last year i used to tape my calluses when doing deads. i dont do that anymore now.

Ok thx. I may have to break out the gloves again.

I think your bench max can actually be calculated based on your frame/weight... I've never done it myself though... god damn, so many jacked mofos here.. I rarely see anyone at my gyms even doing over 2 plates... i see the occasional badass doin 3 but thats pretty much it

I was doing rows with the Barbell between the legs and 5 plates on the end of it. Was going pretty hard and hit my sternum lol. Now it's bruised. Row like a boss.

Berz out.
