    If you are looking to lose weight the most important thing to do is reduce your calorie intake. That will do more for you than any workout I can recommend.

    It seems fine.

    If you have had an injury in that area you are best off speaking to an expert. It's very hard to give injury specific advice over the internet.

    Yeah I agree. I feel like I suck at them too. Just lower the weight, focus on a hard squeeze at the top and don't do too many reps per set as form usually gets progressively worse. Somepeople say...

    Bench press form is very rarely perfect. However good we think it is, there can always be improvements.
    I do something like work up to a heavy set of barbell bench press, 3-5 reps with roughly a 7...

    When I first started working out my hamstrings were a mess. Very tight and very weak. They cramped every time I tried leg curls and even if I tensed them too hard. So I attacked the problem from two...

    Well the scapula is the shoulder blade. It's bone. You don't lift weights with bones, you use muscles which contract and move bones. The rhomboids and traps are the muscles involved so these are the...

    Sounds like a stupid answer but I'm sure this will give you a wider looking chest - Incline bench press. Side delt work too.

    Probably about the rhomboids. Scapular retraction work. Seated rows and such. Rear delt work too. If you really did deadlift heavy with good form then that should help too.

    The one thing I had to do to get my lats to finally start getting wider was to pause for a second at the bottom of the movement (pulldowns). That was literally the difference. Same thing with bicep...

    I like doing things like power cleans, jump squats, power snatch, vertical jumps, medicine ball throws, plyo push ups etc. Basically "speed" movements where some action is taking place rapidly. I...

    I would say just do the Barbell bench for a lot of sets. Get used to it and gradually increase your weight. It will do much more for you in the long run than doing smith bench.

    I usually get straight to changing weights after I have finished a set and start resting when they are changed. Usually my rest periods consist of walking back and forth except after legs when I...

    So, how did it go? Did you go for 1RM, 3RM, 5RM or something else? How did you feel during and after?

    I always warm up RC and get ready for benching by doing one armed clean and press or similar exercise. It helps me to lift more weight, using better form and reduces any clicking or shoulder pain....

    If you are trying to lean up, keep rest intervals short. Sometimes I have rest intervals of 10 seconds at the start of my workout increasing to around 60-90 seconds on difficult sets. During the easy...

    Ya. Work both heads. It will only make a small amount of difference but it could mean a lot for someone in your situation. Wide grip and narrow grip.

    Gotta agree with the tricep comment as well....

    No, the best thing is to make sure your workout finishes in 50 mins or so. If need be, do one last set for chest at the end. A set of pushups to failure is perfect.
