Thread 76599715

Benching is not for pussies.

why did he have a girl spot him for nearly 400lbs?

>>76599738
would you prefer a man spotting for you instead so you can have his dick in your grinding sweating face?

>>76599715 (OP)
his form looked kind of bad just before he died.

>>76599738
when you get a girlfriend one day you will understand

>>76599758
If it means I don't have 400lbs fall on my neck and kill or paralyze me, then yeah, no homo tho.

Take the clips off. Practice failing. Looking stupid and making a bunch of noise is 100x better than this happening.

just do incline and rack in front of you

>>76599782
This. Anybody who uses collars on a heavy 1rm bench press is a fucking retard. Can't get it up? Dump it and live another day.

>>76599780
You don’t need a strong spotter to spot unless your bones break or muscles tear.
Just slightly pushing the bar with fingers should be enough to help you finish if you’re stuck. Unless you’re retard and bench much higher above your possible 1RM

>>76599715 (OP)
I will never understand safeties not being the default. Not only is it ten times as safe, it also removes the need for a spotter.

>>76599715 (OP)
What's with retards always doubling down on trying to lift the weight off that they clearly can't? Rip weights off the side of the bar you dumb bitch! You see the same thing with leg press, retards will start trying to push up on the sled instead of just taking plates off

>>76599808
>Unless you’re retard and bench much higher above your possible 1RM
Sadly, a lot of people are like this. I hate spotting strangers because they'll barely grind out a rep then say "2 more" or say "give me some help" when they really mean all the help you can give.

>>76599782
>>76599806
Yeah OK buddy the weight sliding around while you lift it and falls off the barbell is "safe" but im the retard? Whats gonna happen to the weight when the plates fall off one side while I have it in the air? Someone post a vid of this

>>76599841
exquisite bait
om nom nom nom nom

>>76599820
panic.

your car is making a weird noise, you notice the temp gauge is fucking redlining all the way- IT'S ABOUT TO BLOW- so what do you do? try to stop your heart from beating out of your chest, try to stop hyperventilating, and then you open up the radiator cap- which is now pouring out steam- and you start dumping water in it because your monkey brain says 'car hot - must make cool' and then the sudden change in temperature cracks your case and your engine is ruined.

then a few hours later you think- 'why didn't i just let it cool down without adding water? that was dumb. what was i thinking?'

panic kills.

Did he actually die?

SAAAR
I CANT BREATHE

Why don't all gyms have bench with safeties?
They literally remove the need for spotting while having no downsides.
>set it so the safeties are below your chest when shoulder blades are squeezed together
>but above your chest when they're relaxed
>just spread your shoulders if you fail
I constantly go to failure without spotter at least once a month with no issues

>>76599715 (OP)
> Other people in the gym
> Not cry for help

>>76599876
Because it makes powershitters look gay

>>76599738
Its india man idfk

>>76599715 (OP)
man she literally made it so much worse, she literally pulls the bar to his neck, then trys to shrug the weight like crazy instead of trying to unrack it real fast from one side, or she could have actually probably went to the elevated side and then thrusted the weight off his neck man did he die?

>>76599715 (OP)
I would never attempt this weight without a power rack and safety bars. Especially not with a fucking woman spotting me. What a retard

>>76599876
Because those cost more, especially if the safeties are adjustable, and they suck ass to use if they aren't. It's completely fine to go to failure without safeties or a spotter with the roll of shame. I've failed a PR like 3 times in one gym session, I didn't give a fuck. Sometimes I would get someone rushing to help me, but it just goes to show they don't know how to bench themselves. The bench is completely safe if you respect it, and retards who don't deserve to die.

>>76599876
Those ones arent connected to the back part, one time a guy sued a gym because the equipment failed with like 275 or something and it was stuck on his neck with clips.
>roll to waist
>dump pl8s off if at neck
Thats why any good flat bench is higher off the ground. So the pl8s dont get stuck on the ground before sliding off or at least its a steeper angle and easier to slide out of. You could also get 1 set of bumper pl8s for a home gym since they slide off faster and push the other weight off faster. Another piece of equipment you might want is one of these or even some elbow sleeves in case you fall over between loading the weight on if your shoe is untied or some shit.

>>76600221
These things, have saved my ey elbows and knees on several occassions if i wanna put weight on the bench but see the cables are open during oeak hours for some pec flies ill heely on over at full speed to get a couple reps in.

>>76600113
People forget that weights are dangerous. They se them as toys

>>76599715 (OP)
should've talked about what to do if that happens how could she know to unclip and take off the weights

>>76599775
I have a wife and I'd never let her spot me on a PR.

>>76599715 (OP)
That may look like an accident but it is in fact an intentional juggernaut chariot sacrifice. Think about it, that barbell is a heavy object that can roll and they're 2 poojeets, it all makes sense.

>>76599715 (OP)
I don't get it, why do they always drop the bar on their neck and not chest and just push it down on their stomach ?

>>76600808
this too
they might not be aware of that technique

Just use safeties.

>>76599769
He didn't die. The video is cut. He managed to escape.

>>76600808
165kg is way too heavy for that technique. The roll of shame works best with low-to-moderate weights.

This is how you end with powersharting.
If he did weighted dips and weighted push ups, nothing bad would happen.

I've seen a video of a guy doing it with 220kg, it takes some practice but its a natural instinct not to put a heavy weight on your neck.
In this case the wife fucked him, because she pulled the bar to rerack it. Overall pretty retarded to ask a tiny woman to spot you on a 1RM.
She could've also grabbed the barbell on the end and it would've been easy to lift, but women...

>>76601139
doubt, r u sure??
>>76601142
its not too heavy because your body is strong enough in proportion to the weight you're lifting

>>76599862
When Pajeeta saw that fag back arch she went off to another part of the gym to find a real man and wasn't able to be there when the lift failed. Sad, many such cases

>>76599758
I'd prefer a man simply because they have the mental aptitude to not get bored and walk away after 0.2 seconds

>>76599888
But she wasn't personally in trouble so why would she cry for help?

>>76601142
If you can't even handle 165kg on your abdomen, you better never fall for the Plapjak psyop

>>76599758
>getting to see some bulge 20 cm from my face for 5 secs
>throat crushed and die in 10 secs from suffocation (best scenario dead from neck down)
Let me think.

>>76601526
If you were smarter you wouldn't do bench press at all. A lot of better exercises for chest.

>>76599715 (OP)
>attempting a 1rm PR without safeties

honestly hope he's dead or at the very least permanently disabled

>>76601526
You claim the man in this photo is your best friend and yet he didn't recognize you

Imagine if bench wasn't a thing, and I came along
>hey guys buy this new invention of mine
>it's a bench
>you lie on it see, and press the bar forward
>don't worry it only has a 0.1% chance of killing you

>>76601597
Wow that was masterful.

>>76599715 (OP)
MAM DO NOT RERACK IT! DO NOT RERACK THE WEIGHT!

>>76599819
Every gym that doesn't have safeties on bench is 100% certified garbage for total fucking retards

>>76601663
I don't understand the point and risk of bench press when you can do weighted dips and weighted push ups, or even dumbbell bench press.

>>76602179
>I don't understand
Sorry you have a vagina.

>>76601597
Wow, he saved his life

>>76601597
Oh that hurt

>>76602544
But he alive

>>76599715 (OP)
this is such a stupid way to die

>>76600113
>the roll of shame.
Afraid of crushing my penis and/or balls

>>76599758
Yes male balls pheromones is a free test boost

>>76602179
>I don't understand the point and risk

It's part of being a guy. Sometimes we do risky things to feel the thrill of it

>>76602645
There's no interaction with your junk unless your body is really fucking weird. The only real risk is cracking your ribs or bruising your stomach, but that's not an issue unless you're benching far north of 3pl8. There is also technically a risk of the bar freefalling onto you if it rolls out of your hands, but you'd have to be suicide grip ego lifting to accomplish that, and a spotter can't catch that and chances are safeties wouldn't matter either.
The roll of shame is a stupid name for it. It's a technique used by fearless but disciplined chads.

>>76602909
Some of those videos you see, the people aren't actually suicide gripping

>>76602179
There is no risk to bench press done properly

>>76599715 (OP)
WHY DO YOU FUCKING RETARDS USE THE FUCKING CLAMPS ON A BENCH?! THAT'S A DEATH WISH!!!!!

>>76603625
I bench with safeties but even still I don't put clamps. They aren't even really needed anyway

>>76599841
If the weight is sliding, you can't handle it. Why do this?

>>76603625
Real men take risks

I think he could have done the roll if she hadn't grabbed and dragged it towards his neck right?
