Dude in red, arch is fine as long as you can keep your butt on the bench. Remember to squeeze your shoulders back and rest on your traps when your pressing. Blue guy, you suck.
To the guy in red, when you take your back off the bench you are taking it off your chest and getting a less effective workout. Your also risking a back injury.
tell ur boy in blue, he needs to listen up and get his form before loading the bar wit soo much weight. He is riskin injury bouncing the weight off his chest like that. He needs to make it touch his chest but not make it bounce. u on the other hand, ur doing ok weight for being skinny. try dumbells...will help out
@itskpmofo Okay ! let that Tk guy do exactly the same with 90-110 kg ! ( you should manage that since you do benchpress "the right way" and gain more strength) hahah !! then send me a picture of yourselves in the hospital with broken ribbs, and stretch marks !
Guuuyss. learn how to bench press ! the guy in blue will break his ribbs doing that ! you both have to do dumbells ! look at the bar, you ain't pushing it straight !! and only go down slightly more than 90 degrees angel ! dumbasses
@lassekkk you're supposed to touch your chest, to get a full stretch in the muscle. try putting a heavy weight on the bar and stopping it at 90 degrees, not going to happen. no one is going to have absolute perfect form, and I'm not saying mine or TK's (guy in the blue) is. We train mostly for power so the form is going to be a little different from people who go very slow. we go for functional strength.
@bigbobabc123 no shit. I was referring to training for power, as opposed to training just for size. hypertrophy training doesn't put a great emphasis on strength.
@itskpmofo don't say no shit, when you say that you are training for functional strength implying that training in another way would not give you functional strength. training for strength or size are the same at your level, you have muscle or strength and you will only gain size through progressive increase in weights, same with strength training. you are nowhere near advanced enough to have to separate the two.
WORST BENCH EVER ! hahahahaha, do dumbells ! either of you dont have any support muscle ! and the guy in blue will break his ribbs throwing the bar on his chest
appreciate the input man. what we are doing a sort of 5x5 hybrid. the first week we did 5x5, next week 4x4, then 3x3, then 2x2 with 2 extra sets of assisted negatives. then we max out and start over again, trying to beat our previous stats. and I know, about the arch, I'm working on taking it away, but my body just kind of naturally does it lol.
none of my business but if you think youre doing a 5x5 thats not even close. youre supposed to lift a set weight every week increasing your weight by 5lbs every week til you hit your original 5rep record at week 4, then you increase you continue to increase every week by 5 lbs. breaking your personal records... and for the guy lifting his ass off the bench, no apology needed, just know youll break your back by doing that. pull your feet back, and push your heels into the ground
can't watch anymore of the kid in blue, that's painful to watch, ouch

A tip guys,...When u warm up for the bench... NEVER do more than 5 reps.. No need to get tired before the workout..
Start with 5 reps with 50% of workout weight....Wait 60 sec..
then 3 reps with 70% of workout weight..Wait 60 sec.
then 1 rep 80-90% of workout weight..
Now your ready to train ;)

first of all horrable approach
you are both scronny as hell
and 5x5 is 5 sets with only 5 reps and you build on it
and that shit is lightweight pussy

guy in blue's form is fucking horrible. guy in red is doing it properly and probably making way better gains as a result. Well done.

how much rest did you get between sets
1qmk 1 year ago
@1qmk probably about a minute or so. we usually just rest as long as it takes for the other one to complete their set. just depends i guess.

If you want strength and power you need to slow down on the negative and no bouncing.
