335 lbs x 7 Bench Press & Weighted Pullups Chinups (at 210 lbs)

Weighted Pullup/Chinup workout today….

Started off by warming up the upper body with the bench. I hit a relatively easy PR with 335 lbs (still feeling weak from the flu and hitting bench yesterday).

The weighted pullups/chinups all felt pretty good, so hopefully it won’t take me too long to hit my goal of 5 reps with 100 lbs.

Another goal of mine is to be able to do a Muscle Up. So, I used some band assistance at the end of the workout to practice those. I need to try these on a straight bar, as my bar bends in at the middle so I have nothing to muscle up to. I’ll try it at the park next time…

I finished the workout how I started it….on the bench. I wanted to see if I could hit 10 reps with 3 plates (315 lbs) with one breath. It wasn’t too bad actually…a fun little test.

Thanks for watching…

Bench Press – Form Tips – Build Chest Muscles

Personal Trainer Michael Behnken, MS, NASM-CPT-PES, CSCS

Retraction allows you to work the most muscle fibers in the chest. If you cannot retract your shoulder blades due to bad posture, you must strengthen the muscles that do so.

This means you need to perform rowing exercises with proper form and stretch your chest and anterior deltoids if you have forward shoulder posture.

Lower the weight all the way to your chest and pause.

If you can’t lower the weight all the way to your chest, you do not have to. Just make sure you are not being lazy.

When you lower the weight all the way to your chest, your pecs are actually not working as much, but it’s okay, because you will more than likely be doing more chest exercises which isolate the pecs.

The sticky point is the point in which you know the lift will be completed. Hold your breath until then.

If you exhale before you pass the sticky point, you will lose all intra-abdominal pressure, lose the optimal bench press form and not get the full benefits of the bench press.
