Another indyel thread

Yep bench is one of the most bodyweight reliant lifts around. It's the first lift to lose strength on a cut.

>>76376228 (OP)
Pushing movements have nothing to do with your weight, the only compound you can cheese by being untrained and obese is deadlifts

>>76376228 (OP)
>that fucking horrific benching form for a demonstration
no wonder people can't progress on bench

>>76376336
either you're fat too or you've never seen an obese person do a half rep on bench because of their extreme chest and back fat

>>76376272
To me the most brutal were skullcrushers, once i started cutting my lift shrinked and i also got injured lol

>>76376228 (OP)
We're doing incline bench in 2025 unc.

>>76376228 (OP)
Bench weight has no correlation with your body weight its smelted and welded iron along some polyurethane and industrial grade leather.

This. I was benching my bodyweight the first year if lifting. All i did before that was pushups.

>Lying down
>Push with muscle
Where does your weight play a role ? Half reps not counted and arching not accounted for.
If you give a fat fuck a 400lbs deadlift he can just stick his arse out and use it as leverage

>refuses to increase in any way unless you gain body weight
Uh yeah why would you get stronger if you haven't gained muscle? Or do you think you should be able to lose fat and gain muscle simultaneously?

Wait, when did we agree that benching is a meme? What did I miss?

When we started accusing people who are 5'6 and 160lbs of roiding

You know you can't just lift the Big 4 forever, right? You gotta add some volume, post your lift numbers anon, and post your ethnicity too, I don't wanna give lifting tips to an enemy.

>>76376336
>being obese improves your deadlift
bro has NEVER seen a SHW powerlifter

>>76376228 (OP)
that means your form is wrong and you’ll start feeling the tendonitis within a year

>You know you can't just lift the Big 4 forever, right?
I only have time for ~45 minutes 3x/week. If I don't hit the big 4, I'm going to have odd proportions.

>>76376245
I fucking love benching, especially incline benching. I don't decline I just do dips

>>76378927
how about you cut some of your 4chan time so you can lift more bub

>>76376228 (OP)
Have you considered training with a high rep range (more than 5 reps), working on bar path and technique while making sure you do the last grinding rep right before failure? Set up safeties or get a friend to spot you.

Also do machine press, pec deck, and dips.

>>76378927
What, you do the big 4, 3x a week? You squat and deadlift 3x a week?? Mate, just do GZCLP

>>76379062
why arch if u can go decline - don't see the point of flat bench when u're supposed to arch

all i got from bench was chronic fucked shoulders and enormous lats lol

i found that shoulder protraction turns lats off and decline diminishes front delt load so i do decline pushup on paraletts, then protract shoulders as far as they go without rolling em forward and then pump at the very top of movement

like so:

>that's jay cutler benching what are u on about ?
it's got zero to do with bench bot, no arch whatsoever and shoulders are not retracted at all, never goes down all the way and never locks out

>Where does your weight play a role ?
generally decreases rom, both total and for the joints involved which gives way better leverage

unless you for some reason store 0% fat in chest/back/arms
