  • dude this made me jump

  • i hear this is better for the wrists but never found need for it myself, anyone ever found successful results with it?

  • looks like 295, he should took that shit like a man. fuckin pussy

  • That's why I always bench inside power racks only.

    Besides... thumbless grip?? Really man?? C'mon!

  • Disaster all round. The lifter's moving all over the place, jiggling like a daddy-long-legs and the spotter's playing hands on, hands off. Helps to use spotters you know, and talk about what you're gonna do beforehand, then debrief.

  • @Richthor1889 The problem wasn't the weight, it was that he had his thumbs on the outside like a jackass. If he had been holding it properly with his thumbs on the other side, the weight wouldn't have free fallen from the sky slamming into his chest. It's like if a dude ran of a cliff and that's why you refuse to go running.

  • BOTH FUCK HEAD.

  • One word .......dumbass

  • @geraados lets ask 10 year olds on the internet whether or not im going to die.
