Pretty good bench. Him and Middleton would be pretty much neck and neck. Middleton benched 190 2 weeks back to back at CAPO states and GPC nats and he's done 200 in the gym at about the same body weight. Will Ariel be doing CAPO nats this year? isn't matt also a former bodybuilder as well? |

I havent watched this video... But the post has touched on something that ive recently tried to implement. It started from 2 things. Alex one of my training partners has a great bench and i think hes very chest dominant. He moves the bar fast off the chest. Im not, i have some tricep strength but a terrible bench and i always fail just off the chest. Always blamed my bad shoulder because it locks up as i fail. I read an article on JTS that someone mentioned everyone thinking triceps triceps and pecs are neglected. Much of this is from alot of the info around being for shirted benchers i think.
Anyway for all my repsets and lighter work ive been making the effort to squeeze the bar off my chest with my pecs consciously which is very foreign to me i usually almost pull it up with my arms/tris. And the only way the describe how this feels is push the bar together rather than pull it apart... Time will tell what it does to my bench but ive had sore chest which ive never had before
