Got a question on touch and go and pause in bench press. Does the touch and go and bounce off the chest is the same? I did some googling but i am confused about that. And what do you suggest for fierce 5 novice routine if goal is strength / hypertrophy (TnG or Pause).

For Dumbbell flat bench should it be more of a 45% angle or 90%?

You're still a Cubs fan. Your pitching it garbage. You did wrong bro. Don't be mad. You'll be a "good" team for like 5 years but never a real threat.

Tng isnt a bounce. That's how lunatics bastardise the lift and crack a rib :-) Think more that you are bringing it down to lightly
touch your tshirt..then pressing back up.
There should be no real impact, imagine your chest was made of glass ;-) treat your sternum with a little respect and you should get the feels for a touch and go!
As for tng vs paused? Pause helps build the strength off your chest at the bottom, but most ppl can tng more so you may get more overload ... I like paused, but I REALLY like Spoto press (2second pause 1" above chest) its a nightmare!

Thanks. I thought I am doing bounce cause someone in my gym told me doing that where I am really controlling the eccentric and lift the weight after it touch my chest. So in fierce 5 i think ill combine them. TnG on the 1st 4 reps then pause on the last. How is that? Wow, that seems very hard!

Great thread. I'm perennially flaring the elbows and bending the wrists on the last few hard reps...

good post bro! hadn't seen this till now but this kind of stuff will be very helpful to beginners.
a few things from my experience that may help:
-having a strong upper back is very important to having a strong bench, allows you to control the weight as you lower it
-when flaring my elbows, i have found that if hypertrophy is your main goal then not locking out can help preserve your shoulders.
-biceps, similar to your upper back i think are extremely important to being able to control the weight on the negative portion of the rep
just some of my thoughtsPM me for workout advice Ladies

When benching, try to pull your hands together, not physically moving them but it causes additional contraction on the pecs

I've been following the links in this thread and watching the powerlifting videos on bench, squat, deadlift, et. Thanks for sharing. Looks like I've been doing bodybuilding bench press techniques, but those powerlifting techniques are something I definitely want to try.
