  • Hi Dave !

    Is there a difference between benching for bodybuilding and benching for strength?

  • @nokia3210fuck @TheExalTeDGuy bodybuilders bench to make their chess look bigger. On top of @titans091052's comment, they try to isolate it as much as possible. With strength training, you do the opposite, which is to use as many muscles as you can. In this way, @gankzorzz's comment is justified. You'll see bodybuilders, lifting their feet onto the bench so it's only the arms.

  • 5 people are little girly men

  • That bandaid analogy was a trainwreck, but Dave knows too much about powerlifting for it to matter.

  • @nokia3210fuck Scott Abel has a video about that here in Youtube. He's a douche, but still.

  • gr8 instruction , y not do another one with a guy with no injuries!!!!!!

  • Good stuff. I especially like the talk about warm up to help hone technique.

  • Excellent point about number of reps needed to change a motor pattern in relation to improving form.

  • @Cescq13

    "Why are you here?!"

  • the difference between training for size and for strength is effectively myofibrilar vs sarcoplasmic hypertrophy, and is a result of the different rep ranges used; powerlifters training in the 5RM and below range to increase that 1RM whereas bodybuilders will train in the 6-12 rep range.

  • boi u chat too mush!
