Had an unknown slight decline(15 degrees about) when flat benching for past months

[fishoildick]

I put it back to completely flat and instantly set a PR. Explains all the problems I've had with bench stalling.

However my overhead press has been going up significantly. Is it possible that after I fix this decline that i start experiencing declines in my over head press?






i meant an incline*****

[endpoint]

why dont you try it and see?

[sirwazzles]

Edit: If it's actually on an incline, of course your bench would go up to flatten it out. As long as you use heavier weights to go with the increase, no your triceps should be fine.

[koyongi]

1. How did you not notice a 15 degree decline?
2. Don't most people decline more than they flat bench?

[endpoint]

your posts are fukin useless the majority of the time, you seem like an ass, and i hope i meet you in real life so i can beat the piss out of you

Lets just hope its not on a 15 degree decline.

[Fluster]

Lets just hope its not on a 15 degree decline.

lmao

[endpoint]

So its an incline now?
of course your overhead could go up.

It could just be noob gains

[Fluster]

you too

Bet you I can find 10 intelligent posts of mine and Endpoint's before I find one of yours sunshine.

15 degrees makes a good ski slope. You need a spirit level.

And yes, it could go down.

Sunshine? Brilliant

lolololol

Hahahahahahaha, fantastic.

I consider Endpoint to be one of the, if not the best/brightest posters on the board

He gave you the best advice you could get

[purepower88]

you were the one benching on an incline.

I was just curious if my overhead press would begin to decline since i was no longer bench on a slight slight (10 degree or less) incline. If so I would probably manipulate my routine so I end up working shoulders more. If not since my bench will probably begin to go up exponentially now, I would hope it would carry over to my overhead press.

If you didn't notice the incline, I'd say it's probably very minuscule and you shouldn't worry about a decline in OH strength. You could add in some extra shoulder work if you wanted but I'd see what happens.

Emphasis mine.
1) I'm not sure you know what exponential means.

2) (Not that I'm really one to talk, but I try not to run my mouth to well respected members either.) Strong join date to post count ratio.

you are all retarded

you were the one benching on an incline.

I have nothing further to add regarding our relative intelligence, but please continue to lower the bar and make all us retards look better by comparison.

[Entkommen115]

you are all retarded

If you couldn't feel a 15 degree incline you might want to choose better words to insult others.

[koyongi]

It doesnt matter, you will never meet them in real life, and they dont matter that much. Internet is serious business

I would now like to mention that a week after a very heated thread that resulted in many reps, negs, and bans, I randomly ended up spending three hours next to one of the main contributors on a flight from KC to LA. Never say never.
And that if you make it very far at all in powerlifting, you will end up meeting quite a few people on here.

That is all.

[Entkommen115]

if you couldnt read the thread to conclude that it was less then 10 degrees actually, you might want to kill yourself

Still a pretty significant difference.

And no I don't want to kill myself. Maybe once I have a hard time figuring out angles and simply geometry I will though.

[fatbencher]

They don't matter, internet is not serious business, yet you want those people that don't matter to advise you?

Sense: you make none.

[babyslayer]

this thread makes me consider sliping a 10lb plate under the end of my bench so that i can bench with a slight incline and then hit a pr when i go back to flat.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

EDIT: im going to try doing a few sets like this after my main bench **** for a few workouts and see what happens.

[babyslayer]

inb4 i bench 1080lbs raw

[Fluster]

you're welcome

You're welcome.

[Fluster]

You are worse than endpoint, I really do hope we meet irl, because i think if you really say some of the dumb things you do on these boards it would probably infuriate me enough to kill you with my bare hands. You aren't even that strong


and you're really fuking ugly

and wtf is this?

sh*t makes me want to murder you

Awww, you say the sweetest things!

I can't believe you are hating on Tigger though. That's just an unacceptable lack of humour.

[markyg]

are you a ****phile?

Why are you looking for a new foster home?

Agreed, Tigger is ****ing sweet.

[Fluster]

Why do you think I shaved the beard, it was scaring the young'uns.

Actually, that's a pretty sweet beard.
