  • Better than a small brain I suppose.

  • parading one's ignorance for the win!!

  • Do you tink it's right to do a long stop on the floor before starting to push? Tomorrow I'm going to do my first floor press ME

  • Right? Interesting word. It actually makes the lift harder, and so becomes a good strength building technique. You might think, hey, he's resting at the bottom. But, on a 1RM, it means next to nothing. The fatigue is not muscular and so resting doesn't help much. A bench benefits from the stretch reflex at the bottom, pausing removes that benefit and so you must go from zero recruitment to full recruitment to overcome gravity.

  • i know the video is old but this is beastly. If my gym had good squat cages that i could floor press in i would give up benching.

  • so elbow touch and go is bad dam that's what I've been doing

  • great form. nice to see a true pause on floor pause. sick of the elbow touch and go technique

  • yeah i do them with straight legs otherwise youre just feeding your egot.

  • Do you have to use a hard surface or can I use a soft stretching mat?

  • Are these good for triceps?

  • nice pressing. Just wondering why do you tilt your head up on the 315 set?

  • No stretch reflex either - you're lifting from a dead stop at the bottom (which is why they're paused)

  • excellent. and to answer the question, these are harder. no arch, no real leg drive can be used. they are even harder with straight legs.

  • He has no arch at all actually.
