Add 40 LBS to Your Bench Press (NEXT WORKOUT!)



If you wish to enhance your bench press by as a lot as 40 kilos the very subsequent time you carry out the train, then you’ll want to watch this video. I’m going to point out you find out how to add as much as 40 kilos to your bench in your subsequent workout simply by incorporating two generally misperformed parts of the bench press. For this, I’m bringing in powerlifter and skilled KC Mitchell (That 1 Legged Monster) to assist showcase precisely what it’s that I’m educating.

The very first thing that many individuals overlook, which is costing them a big quantity of weight lifted within the train, is the shortage of leg drive. The drive of the bench press actually begins with the drive of the toes on the ground. Greater than that nevertheless is, the course of that drive. Many individuals suppose that the course you need to push your toes is straight down into the bottom. That is incorrect.

With a purpose to correctly carry out your leg drive you want to be taught to push your toes away out of your head. This may drive your physique up the bench if carried out the best means. Once you perceive this idea you see how this ties into the second tip given on this video about correct bar path. We’ll get to that in just a little bit. For now nevertheless, the toes will provoke the upward energy of the carry and are due to this fact wanted to be positioned correctly.

You are able to do this by establishing as you usually would underneath the bar after which sliding your physique down the bench. From right here, bend the knees and convey the toes again so far as you possibly can underneath your physique. You’ll level your toes down into the bottom to use the brakes and anchor your physique in place. From right here, while you push you need to take into consideration making an attempt to carry out a leg extension. The toes ought to need to lengthen out as in the event you had been straightening your knee.

This may need to drive your physique up the bench and slide your head nearer to the highest of the bench. In case you contract your glutes whilst you do that nevertheless you’ll keep in place and switch the upward and angled momentum into the bar as an alternative. That is the place bar path is available in. Many will incorrectly attempt to push the bar straight up over their head as an alternative of again towards the rack. This can be a mistake.

Physics will dictate {that a} path of effectivity is what we’re after when pursuing maximal power. Probably the most environment friendly path to press the bar is on an angle reasonably than steeply against gravity. Drive that bar from the purpose in your chest again on a straight however angled line again to the rack. The leg drive proven will help you in getting this proper each single time.

You additionally need to make certain that you might be sliding your physique far sufficient down the rack to carry out the carry or you should have no room to push the bar again with out it hitting the pins. That is going to be greatest completed by having a spotter who can assist you unrack the burden. It doesn’t matter how little weight you might be utilizing, by no means really feel intimidated or self acutely aware about it. As an alternative, excellent your type by lifting what you possibly can management in the best means and your power will enhance rapidly.

  2. Best video out of many great ones. Thanks guys. Really appreciate it. This is old school me when I had a spotter. Then I got close and it killed it. Always going to ask for one now.

  3. Does leg drive help contribute to a larger chest though? If they are doing some of the work. I mean we dont all want to be powerlifters , they are optimizing for lifting the most weight. Is this an optimal way to gain the most mass? I would think INEFFEICIENY would work better for mass gain because it forces your body to do something against its will…this guy is even using a huge back arch which really isnt recommended i thought for normal benching. He just decreaes his range of motion big time making it way easier to lift heavy is all. He is a powerlifter, thoer technique isnt a universally applicable

  4. alright, so I will zero in on my leg drive tomorrow to hit a 3×5 @ 210. last week I got the first set, second set was a huge struggle, and 3rd set was 3 reps and dump on the pins.
