Doing a 330-lb. Bench Press
Bridging (or arching) your back during bench presses will give you better leverage. There is a reason for this. The strength you gain from bridging or arching will "spill over" to your strict lifts. What you do with a strict lift will never "spill over" to a heavier bridge lift.

Very impressive. I have been told time and time again that arching your back when pressing heavy weights is dangerous.
ReplyDeleteHowever, the body naturally wants to assume this position. I like light heavy weights, too. So, you don't see any problems arching your back?
Nice lift and article bro
ReplyDeleteBench Press seems be a quit effect exercise in my case. Btw you have a great blog.

ReplyDeleteWell done sir. I guess you made all age-related excuses invalid now. Could you explain the moves you make on the beginning on the video? I've never seen anyone doing it before. Is it a part of preparation for a bigger weight?
ReplyDeleteI can say "well done" ... it's a really good result ... continue in the same spirit
