Bench 210kg (462lbs) raw

Bench 205kg (450lbs) pretty easily with self lift off, then 210kg (462lbs), looked ugly but if you look closer, I hit 2 PINS on the way up!!!!!! :)

Nice work man. If you're confident in your form you should descend faster and store up some stretch reflex.

thanks for the advice but I'm preparing for paused bench for competitions so I prefer going down really slow, then it won't be too much of an ajustement to pause on the chest until the signal.

man i've tried benching on the ground and you pull it off very well with your technique and raw power. congrats!!

You dont need fast twitch fibers for everything;) Thats slow raw pow..I mean STRENGTH and durability, not just speed and fragility :)

Right on, I kind of figured that. The thing is, even if it's a paused bench you might want to play with descending quickly - I've found that as long as your groove is on, you'll be able to move more weight doing that than by going slowly.

The only people who need to descend so slowly are shirted benchers bc the shirt can throw them out of their groove. If you're going raw it might make more sense to drop more quickly, pause, and be able to explode harder.

you can go heavy pretty often but the key is to keep the workout short and not overdo the assistance and triceps work at the same time. I do bench, some military press and shoulder work on heavy day. And just a couple of triceps mouvements on explosive day.
