@evowiz I know your comment is 2 years ago, lol but.
idk much about those shirts, but i dont think so. shirts dont have magicaal powers...unless a mythical creature curses it lol

MRSNHVR...you are not suppose to touch your chest because that can tear up your shoulders.once his elbows reach shoulder level you are NOT suppose to go down anymore. people like you saying this are the ones that will cause yourself and others to fuck up your shoulders. shoulders are not meant to carry loads like that especially in that position. take this advice from me. i have much experience and education with training.

Does that shirt really make a big differance?

eh... pretty good i guess... back in my freshman year i was doing over double my bodyweight... weighed about 150 and could knock out 345 raw, keep it up i suppose.
cool, you should be able to get at least 350-405lbs "touch" without the shirt, I hope you dont always use the shirt, it can bite you in the ass in the long run, keep doing raw bench as well as shirted. it will really help you progress, I also like doing 1/5 isometric reps( eg, doing bench on a squat rack and having safty bars 5 inches or so above the bar pressing and holding the bar against the safty bars for 5 sets of 5 seconds), it really helps strengthin the weak point. good job, take care.

@darock44444444 - thanks for the comments and advice. I've done quite well with the shirt competing at the 2007 IPF Master's World Bench Press Championships in Germany and the 2008 IPF Open World Bench Press Championships in Prague, Czech Republic. Best of luck to you.

bench shirt + not touching your chest = not a good bench.

Really? Thanks, sherlock. If you read the video description and listen to what I said after the bench, you would realize that I was playing around and knew that the weight wasn't going to touch. Check out some of my other videos and see a 570 and a 620 that do touch my chest, pause for a second, and then shoot back out to lockout!
